I have no problem with that.
Bureaucrats who are always surroundex by armed guards trying to sneak laws through loopholes of the constitution they swore to uphold? Now that's a big problem.
As for freedom...every new law takes away a little more freedom. It's been done in babysteps. And now we are spyed on, searched at airports like common criminals, searched by cops at traffic stops, shot and killed by cops in many cases, have a media that tries to shape events and does selective reporting, forced to buy a product by the federal govt., and the list goes on.
Perhaps you wouldn't mind all of that IF you lived here. But you don't and I do. I'm not happy with the way things are going in our country. And the latest polls show the vast majority of citizens here feel the same way.
I hope that REAL change is coming and that for the first time in decades it will finally reflect the will of the people and not the will of the ruling class politicians.

Countries that have "disarmed" have a far safer lifestyle. I use the word loosely because anyone can own a gun in these countries if they prove themselves capable. Your argument could be applied to anyone owning fighting dogs, big cats, alligators. Anyone can own one, whatever their ability.
As for what the majority of Americans want, when was there a referendum? Of course one that banned any influence from big businesses, to make sure it was what the people wanted.
Are you in favour of no checks at airports, no spying, no police on the streets because they might shoot someone, they're scared might have a gun?
Politicians don't rule America. They all need huge sums of money to get re-elected. That money can only come from big business. giving individuals like the Koch Brothers the power. This also was rubber stamped by the Supreme Court. So any change you think might be coming isn't.
That was proven with Obama's attempt to wrench healthcare out of the grip of the private sector. Leaving Americans poorer.
