I'm not a 2nd Amendment nut either. I don't even know that it needs to be an amendment at all. If it's there so people can arm themselves against the government then the time when that would be particularly helpful probably died with the advent of the tanks and bombers. And if it's just about self-defense then I don't think that is important enough to make it such an inviolate right. I probably wouldn't care that much if it became a state issue.
