Ring-winger gun-nuts: the 2nd amendment is meant to keep us protected from a tyrannical government!!!!

This is the second attempt on the life of your wannabe god-emperor...are things starting to click into place yet or are you ready to admit it was never about "rights" and "freedoms" you just really like having guns

I mean if they were serious about guns being used to make sure the tyrants and would be tyrants are always in fear of an assassin's bullet then what has been happening lately is EXACTLY what the 2nd amendment is intended for... and they are pissed because they are a bunch of wanna-be brownshirts who want to be the armed militia of the tyrant and kill his enemies without fear of prosecution. They just want to do it with their own personal weapons.

Tbf they actually view the other side as the tyrannical one and think their side is the savior, it isn't actually that hard to understand their feelings on that one.

Not saying that they're right, just that this is the explanation for this oft cited "disconnect." Basically just "nobody thinks they're the bad guy."
