I want to be as free possible. I recognize that sometimes, my armed neighbour can be more of a threat to my life or liberty than my government.
It's naive to believe that the only potential tyrants we need to worry about are people in our current government.
That would indeed be naive.

"Neighbour".....is that like what we call a "neighbor" in Americastan?

The Second Amendment isn't the only reference to the "militia" in the Constitution. Are you arguing that the powers granted to Congress to regulate and "discipline" the militia should be applied to you? Are you comfortable with your rights being limited this way?
I'm OK with reasonable regulation per the Constitution.

I understand. The term 'Prayer Shaming' in the OP title I was responded to is probably not a well-worded term. That was what I was trying to point out and clarify.
It's well-worded for its purpose. IMO, it's deliberately intended to shift focus by making it seem like this is some "war on Christians" and gloss over the hypocrisy.
