I do not mind the rights to bare arms, but at the same time, it can be absolutely fuckin' scary.
It'd be scarier if you didn't have that right. Give the criminals a monopoly on gun ownership. Not my cup of tea.

And if "the shit goes down" you're going to want to have a gun. The most recent example, and yes O'reilly uses it I apologize, is hurricane Katrina.

You get involved in a situation like hurricane Katrina, and you don't have a gun, you have absolutely no way to defend yourself.

Even look at the LA riots, or anything like that. You have to allow the people the right to bear arms. It is their right to protect themselves. That is what the second amendment is for.

And people who try and make the argument that the second amendment guarantees the right to a "well regulated militia" those people are retards. It specifically says "PEOPLE". Probably meant to protect themselves from that well regulated militia mentioned earlier in the amendment.
