The right to have a well armed militia to protect from an oppressive government is a great concept but it isn't working according to the principle it was designed to clearly. Practically, the American government and military are already bigger than anything else like it the world has ever seen. The American people can't do anything about that and even if they wanted to do, they are too easily hypnotized and manipulated. The only thing you're allowed to do is buy guns and line someone else's pockets, you aren't allowed to change the status quo with your right to bear arms. Any change you are allowed to bring has to be preapproved by the powers that shouldn't be...

Could not have said it better. The government will NEVER take guns away from the people. They don't have to. Managing perception through perception management is far easier and far more impactful. The "Twinbom" as titled by the FBI in their 9/11 report before their investigation was thwarted by higher-ups, illustrates that most people and even lower government agents knew the official 9/11 story was a farce, and yet we continue to choose political sides, myopically identifying with party extremes, armed to the teeth while our brains rot.
