You noticed. :-)

I am unconvinced that

1. There will be a cival war if the government does something the people 
don't like.

2. Not having guns makes it impossible to force the government to change 
its policy.

This whole idea that "without guns the government will enslave the 
people, but as long as people carry guns the government can be held in 
check" seems utterly ridiculous to me.
