The Founders wanted to make government have to think twice about becoming tyrannical, abusive, and oppressive. That is why they wanted citizens to have the ability to be legally armed. Yes, the citizens may lose, but it would make a tyrannical government have to pay a price, and bullies usually don't want to do that.
The Founders wanted us to be able to shoot our elected officials if we think they`re tyrannical etc.? That`s incredibly stupid.
Funny, given that the people who wrote the constitution spent 8 years doing just that.
The people who wrote the Constitution weren`t shooting at THEIR elected officials. Have you heard about that taxation without representation business?

Pretty sure Obama was Putin's *****.
Obama was every foreign leaders *****. Remember the apology tour? Except he was pretty brave dropping drones on innocent civilians who were defenseless. He also told Putin he'd have more flexibility after the election, then he did what Putin wanted and reneged on the eastern Europe missile deal.

Russia sent two planes with dozens of soldiers and military advisers to Venezuela's capital of Caracas over the weekend amid growing tensions in the South American country, an anonymous Venezuelan official has said.
Venezuela's political crisis
escalated on Sunday when opposition leader Juan Guaido, who declared himself interim president in January, called on his supporters to prepare to take power in the country. Moscow, which backs President Nicolas Maduro's government, has previously
said it would not allow a U.S.-backed color revolution in the country.
Russian military officials arrived in Caracas to discuss strategy, equipment maintenance and training, an unnamed Venezuelan official
told The Associated Press Monday.

The Chief of Staff of Russia’s Ground Forces Vasily Tonkoshkurov, nearly 100 troops and 35 metric tons of equipment were on board the planes, media reports said.
The flights also carried officials who arrived to "exchange consultations," the state-funded Sputnik news agency
reported, quoting an unnamed source at the Russian Embassy.
"Russia has various contracts that are in the process of being fulfilled, contracts of a technical military character," Sputnik cited the source as saying.
Flight-tracking data showed that an Ilyushin IL-62 passenger jet and an Antonov AN-124 military cargo plane left from Russia for Caracas on Friday.
The planes landed three months after the two nations held military exercises in Venezuela that President Nicolas Maduro called a sign of strengthening relations, but which Washington criticized as Russian encroachment in the region.
