I don't know what all the scuddlebutt is about. The founders were writing the constitution at a time of great corruption. Those times are long gone, and we no longer need to fear the government. Sure, there have been some isolated things the past few years, but let these instances not stop us from just giving it all back to our intellectual betters out east.
Don't get hung up on warrentless wiretapping, detention without due process, NSA super data warehouses, the DOJ running guns to mexican cartels, IRS abuses of the tea party, FBI interference in the election, sales of national security information to foreign governments by the state department, untouchable politicians enriching themselves at the expense of human life, the corruption of the entire justice department, federal land grabs, and the millions of hostile and unvetted bad actors snuck into the county under the guise of refugee resettlement.
All I need to feel safe is a sign that says, "This is a gun-free zone." You can have all my guns, because I trust our political system.
