Why on earth do so many Europeans and Brits get so upset over the right of Americans to have guns. I admire this right and freedom greatly and wish we had the same here, but we do not. There seems to be such total rage amongst the anti gun people.
Also the idea that an armed population are no threat to a government with a large military backing it up seems wrong, one only has to look at the middle east and see how various groups have removed governments/regimes, also in many situations like Afghanistan and Vietnam armed civilians or whatever you wish to call them have been very hard to beat. IF such a situation ever took place in the USA some of the civilians will be ex military, also the fact that many serving military probably would not be willing to fight there own people.
