The 2nd Amendment's purpose, in context, should be clear. It made it legal for the states to organize militias, so any tyrannical power, be it the British Empire or the Federal Government, could be challenged. Weapons as a political tool against political powers. What the hell does it have to do with carring a handgun to protect yourself from fellow citizens? Or, say, to carry an assault rifle to murder fellow citizens...
