A Boring Dystopia

I had never quite realized just how much the second amendment was basically: we might need an army at a moments notice, certainly allowances of weaponry would be appropriate, even the organization of militias. And I don't know if the founding fathers or anyone back then could have imagined what the human population would grow to in a few centuries. This rule could never have accounted for a population of over 300 million, without even accounting for cultural and psychosocial alterations of time and technology. Back then maybe a militia could have effected a coup, but today it would be hopeless even if a large number organized they would be caught in surveillance dragnet and/or egregiously overmatched. Makes me feel like it should be harped on more that the second amendment in present context is too often misrepresented.
