I agree, and I find the viewpoint that guns will protect from Americans from a totalitarian government as naive.
The US military has proven itself very effective at fighting those only armed with small arms. In Iraq roadside bombs have proven a far better weapon than assault rifles.
Trying to imagine the Oregon militia fighting against predator drones seems insane. IMO, the 2A is just an opiate that the government uses to lull right wing voters into acquiescence.
If the military [mostly] side with the revolution, civilian legal entitlement to handguns is even more unlikely to affect the outcome than if they don't.
