”A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government.”
~George Washington

Having guns just for hunting/sport is not the reason our forefathers gave us the right to have guns. The 2nd amendment is not for hunting. We were not invaded by Japan in WW2 because they were afraid of us Americans with our guns. Believe it or not, there are independent militias in the USA... These executive orders are illegal, infringing our rights and treasonous all under the cover to "protect our children" from rare instances of psychos in a country where more people die tripping over thereselves IMO.

”The danger (where there is any) from armed citizens, is only to the ‘government’, not to ’society’; and as long as they have nothing to revenge in the government (which they cannot have while it is in their own hands) there are many advantages in their being accustomed to the use of arms, and no possible disadvantage.”
~Joel Barlow
