Why would civilians need guns? In today's society I can't really see why you would need them, living here. If you've got a functioning brain.
Yeah, I guess no one except soldiers NEEDs guns, just like no one (at all) NEEDs video games. It is a pastime and sport that people like me happen to enjoy, called hunting and target shooting.
As a civilian I believe it is necessary to have a defense against the government should it become totalitarian. Civilians need the ability to defend ourselves from the government.
It sounds weird and far-fetched, but I think the founding fathers would agree.
I suppose, I can see your point. Against the government, I can kind of see why. However, if another country were to attack us, I think it would be with nukes and biological warfare, if they want to accomplish anything. I guess China could, though....
