The point of the right to bear arms is to have some defense against an oppressive government if needed.
Yes it is, but you do you and your history changing…gun control is rooted in racism btw.
What mental gymnastics did you perform to come to the conclusion that gun control is rooted in racism
Edit: history
No, not really, even in the wild West towns would force you to surrender your firearms to the sheriff before you could go anywhere else in town.
Just because Reagan was a racist about it doesn’t mean the very concept itself is racist.
Yes it is.

By the way, do you really think you could defeat the U.S. military with your gun collection? Even if you and a bunch of buddies got together?
Want to get Republicans to jump on gun control? Just have minorities show up exercising their right to bear arms.
Ask Reagan.
