Just an interesting thought. I recently received an email ad that advertised a Gatling Gun for about $6000 (I think, if memory serves). A Gatling Gun is NOT an automatic or even a semiautomatic weapon but is reported to be able to fire about 200 rounds per minute. If I still lived in my previous home, I think I would entertain the idea of purchasing one. Of course, I had my own firing range and steel knock down targets. I didn't need a tank because I already had a track vehicle with a blade mounted on the front for road work. The 2nd Amend is a wonderful Constitutional right that our fore fathers gave us and I hate to see folks exploit it in such a manner to jeopardize it's existence. I consider the 2nd Amend as a Fourth branch of our government, equal to Congress, Executive branch and the Supreme Court. Each fulfilling an equally weighted mandate to keep this country the most perfect experiment in the history of the world. This gives the "People" equal power in how this country progresses in the world. Just my opinion, of course.
