I said as long as they are armed, and the government is armed, I do feel like people should have the right to bear arms with an encyclopedia of restrictions that are heavily enforced.
I never suggested that. Your implication that they're Mobile Infantry from "Starship Troopers" is a common meme on the Internet and wildly off base.
As for bearing arms, I've done so in the US, but only in the course of duty. I can protect myself better with a newspaper than a gun.
