The only thing that holds the government back from just going ballistic on us is the Second Amendment. When we become disarmed, it's over. It's over.

I'm a defender of the Second Amendment to the Constitution.

The constitution shall never be construed...to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

[The Constitution preserves] the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation (where) the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.

Americans have the right under the Second Amendment to own firearms, and that is not going to change.
