I believe it was created post the war for independence from the British and so it was created at a time where it was intended to give the citizens of your country the right to fight against a tyrannical federal government. It seems it was created to give individuals the right to defend themselves in case it is needed. What has changed however is how guns are made compared to a couple of hundred years ago and cautionary laws around the ownership of such guns should be taken into consideration due to said change. Feel free to correct the resident foreigner. It is just a simple observation.Yes. You are correct about the Second Amendment and you are correct in your observation that firearms have significantly advanced since the time of the musket or the end of the American Civil War era. Like I said, if the liberals were able to completely focus on the real issues related to improper gun use by some of its citizens and show us that they're willing to seriously address them instead of focusing on disarming us, emptying prisons and establishing communist like governments instead we could effectively address and eliminate most of the violence associated with guns.
In other words, you would support some kinds of gun control if it were passed by conservatives instead of liberals.
