        Because… People are using their arms against the tyrannical government? I’ve seen a few Black Panthers doing it right. That’s about it. And it’s sure as shit not been them that have argued that the law is there for them to be able to do that. They understand that their effectiveness is in deterence, at the moment, not constitutionally protected insurrection, which is what a lot of 2A thumpers seem to think it allows them to do. In no way will use of firearms against the sitting government or its law enforcement or military ever be officially condoned by any level of that government, no matter what the constitution says/means/implies, I promise you.
