Unfortunately when things like this are said, the worshipers get BS images in their head of dictatorships and oppression. They do not understand they are literally trying to give rights to an object, although they would claim they are not doing that. You can't point out to them our western pluralistic, and free allies don't have a 2nd amendment, still allow for firearm ownership, but don't hand them out blindly and sit on "no record".
This is an area where I think that conservatives are, once again, contradicting themselves. The Founding Fathers of the United States, in my opinion, wanted the 2nd Ammendment to apply only in the realm of a citizen soldier.
