The US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit on Thursday held that a Massachusetts law banning the sale, transfer, or possession of an assault weapon is not unconstitutional under the Second Amendment to the US Constitution. This decision comes after Massachusetts resident, Joseph Capen, contended that he was planning on purchasing items covered by the law for purposes of self-defense.

2nd amendment was meant as a checks and balance for exactly the situation that is happening right now.
And it has never and will NEVER be used that way. Wouldn’t work even if people all stood up to try and use it that way
What about the American Civil War?
Great example. An armed rebellion failed and killed hundreds of thousands in the process.
Americans are legally allowed to use guns to take down everyone wearing golden trump pin in the white house and they would get away with it in the court afterwards as long as they get every single sympathyzer.
Oh yes so all you have to do is murder about 80 million people. Great plan!
