you are referring to the 2nd amendment, and then fallback on to court interpretations of the original texts... it is like barnicles on the ship's hull, or preacher's take of the holy text... the way i read the ORIGINAL wording by THE forefathers is one way, the way it was politically influenced at a given time by an elected or an appointed official that HAS NO vision same of the forfathers - is a different thing...

Jesus came and went, and he said one thing... his words were repeated and CHANGED so many times, that how do you know WHICH christians are following his original words? and which ones are falling victims of the political agenda of the religious leaders at the time? the catholics? the orthodox? the baptists? the lutherans? the adventists? but the beginning was the same!!! it goes with the amendments - the forefathers meant one thing.. it was interpreted the other way...

no matter what this government does to you, you will NOT revolt...

I prefer to think that I live in a HUMAN civilization, and not in the jungle - because if what you are saying is true, than my childhood propaganda about America was RIGHT... and I don't want THE America that was painted for me back then... that America is SCARY!!!
go ahead, ask me where i grew up...
