The 2nd Amendment is all about having a bulwark against standing armies, nothing to do with hunting or sport. The more people that understand the true necessity of the 2nd the better.

After all, it's the recognition that the ability to exert force is a human right. Why should that be curtailed in favor of someone else (or a group of 'someone elses' ie. the government) having a monopoly on said force?

Good post!
