Doesn't matter.

All that matters is I have the right to fire back.

See. THESE answers are why I asked the question. Because, it's NOT an answer.

If the government goes "off the rails", who will be doing the shooting???


The same people that did the shooting which ked to this great nation, of which you enjoy your freedoms. We the people.
Remember, only 20% of the early settlers supported fighting Britian. It doesn't take everyone, only a few, brave, patriots willing to stand for what they believe in.

Ok. Your government has over reached. YOU and many of your friends and neighbors decide you're going to fight back literally.

Or, maybe you just refuse to comply so the government decides to force you to comply.

Who is coming for you?

Come on folks. This one ain't hard.

Well I’ve only known one president to insinuate bombing civilians with planes because they voted the wrong way.

Post the entire Amendment. It’s quite short and the answer you seek, lies within.

Oh. I know who would be doing the shooting on the rebel side.

The question is. If your government over reaches, and you refuse to comply, WHO IS THE GOVERNMENT sending to force you to comply?

Cause THAT is who you're gonna have to shoot.

Think of it it terms of when it was written. We had justccome out of an 8 year war with an oppressive government. This war could never have been successful without an armed populace.

Do you really think you can imagine whatever situation/circumstance would produce such a reaction?? Its impossible.
What we do know, is that it happened in the past and could very well happen again.
Just because your weakness rules your ability to imagine such an event.... doesn't mean others wouldn't react in a more honorable and brave manner.

Whoever that government entity sends. Won't be my local police force, that much I'm certain of. At least not in its current form.

An abusive government deciding that citizens rights are meaningless. To be any more precise would be a report of what has happened. To give a threat would invite a response and you seem to be asking for someone to comment with a definitive answer much like what a glow worm would do

It's not to line up across a battlefield with the military.


It's more like neighbor to neighbor.

Local officials backing the tyrannical government (mayors, police chiefs, city council members) wouldn't be able to have a normal life, their kids wouldn't be able to go to schools, they couldn't go to the stores, their wives wouldn't have a social life, all for fear that they would be knocked off at any given time.

Think Lebanon and Sarajevo.

I don't "want" them to.

That's simply the answer.

I get that it's an uncomfortable answer. Comfort isn't relevant.

Which of course falls squarely in that “government actor” category.

Also, it really could be all 3 if it gets bad enough.

It's just that #3 is the guarantee.first in the chute.

Sure.

Government actor serves as a solid euphemism.
