For all intents and purposes the 2nd Amendment today is about hunting weapons.

Hope you have your asbestos undies handy 'cuz you're gonna need them. I'll be right back after my popcorn comes out of the microwave...;-)

Just trying to square the document with reality. Somewhere along the line we lost our rights to bear whatever arms we need to overthrow our government. Even the NRA doesn't seem interested in allowing that. So if the intent of the 2nd amendment was to keep government at bay through the threat of force and a bloody revolution every 200 years, how is that possible today?
