Given how the US became the US, the constitution was written so that the masses could have guns in order to overthrow their corrupt government if the need ever came up... In this day and age, in order to comply with that part of the constitution, the masses should be able to own rocket launchers, tanks etc. etc. etc.. Sounds nuts, but that's the reality of it... The other reality is that the masses that want to have guns wouldn't have the balls to overthrow the government anyway so there's no reason they should have the guns.
Isn't there some supreme court case coming up that will decide once and for all whether the constitution applies to all citizens or actually applies to militias. Given way back when it was the militias that needed to be armed to over throw the british overlords, I would think it would only be them and not joe blow.
