Lets imagine I'm a rebel, or an insurgent, a terrorist.... whatever. If they use a drone to kill me I've already won. If they use an airstrike I've not only won but impoverished them. This is, essentially, the best case scenario for a legitimate revolt.
Sure they could possibly make a martyr of you, but you are not going to convince me that people need to own guns to protect themselves from the government. I will listen to arguments about using guns to protect yourself against criminals or in the case of hunting, but using it to fight off the US government is ridiculous you may as well be armed with slingshot.
