This, so much. It's not the 2nd amendment standing between us and an elite government takeover of America ... it's the Americans serving under them.
But, our right-wing fantasies about the need to keep our citizenry armed with as much weaponry as possible ... like it was 1776 all over again and they needed protection because the British were coming ... is killing real children today.

So you're making the argument that since the government is so big and evil, and that you think the humans in the military are depraved enough to mass murder americans on US Soil, that it makes sense to give up your 2nd amendment right.
That doesn't seem like a sound chain of logic.
Also do the fucking math US owned guns vs actual US soldiers. It comes back to the US military needing to mass bomb entire populations if it came to an actual rebellion, and again, the fact that the US government could and might consider mass bombing us is NOT a compelling argument to abandon the second amendment.
