My understanding of what the founder's envisioned for us is that we are the government, that we have the ultimate say on anything "government" thinks it's going to do, and actually we have a duty to interfere when government becomes repressive. Going against any of the amendments in the bill of rights would be a clear cut call to action required by our citizenship duty. Letting "government" pass laws that infringe on the second amendment rights without trying our very best to stop it means we are not good citizens.
We do not have the luxury of inactivity! Thomas Jefferson would froth at the mouth watching from the balconies of history as we allow our rights to be deprived, after so many men and women have risked so much to deliver such rights into our hands.
We have a unique form of government in which we have a right to speak up, we really don't have a right to let the power mad grabbers take power, that is one right we do not have.
