Yeah. The problem with 2A is that it was created at a time when advanced military weaponry and vehicles didn't exist and when the government didn't have the ability to nuke an entire country in an instant.

It's outdated and it's laughably absurd that 2A nutjobs don't realize this.

You can't go on about how this is a strategy to produce more wage slaves and then suggest that the government wouldn't hesitate to decimate its own population. Those two things are in direct opposition to each other ideologically. Strictly speaking, even if those who support the 2A die while fighting the government it would still be a pyrrhic victory for the government/military because there's no way to maintain a functional economy while dealing with the domestic equivalent of "the troubles." There's also never a unified "surrender" ever on the table.

Acting like slaughtering your population en-masse is some sort of deterrent or solution is absolutely insane given the weight our federal government has clearly put on maintaining the economy above all else.

They might cut off their nose to spite their face, but they will probably (certainly)bleed out in the near future if they did.
