Politicians Never Accuse You Of 'greed' For Wanting Other People's Money - Only For Wanting To Keep Your Own Money.

The Second Amendment, Like The Rest Of The Bill Of Rights, Was Meant To Inhibit Only The Federal Government, Not The States. The Framers, As The Federalist Papers Attest (see No. 28), Saw The State Militias As Forces That Might Be Summoned Into Action Against The Federal Government Itself, If It Became Tyrannical.
