Question
Come up with and carefully present at least one counter-argument or rational objection against the Anti-Tyranny Argument. If the people or the citizenry of the country are well armed with handguns and semi-automatic rifles, it is considerably less likely that a tyrannical government (a government that completely overthrows our constitutional rights) will take power in the United States. This tyrannical government could be of foreign origin, or it could be domestic (a coup by the military or some group that has power over the US military). Your response should be around 5 sentences. Please answer this quesiton as clarified as possible and at least 5 sentences. Thank you very much.
Explanation / Answer
The counter-argument or rational objection against the Anti-Tyranny Argument:
Since currently the biggest concern of America is its economy; any uprising of the citizens of America in the current situation would probably not involve like-minded constitutionalists taking up arms to defend democracy and liberty. In fact what can happen is; one aggrieved social group attacking another. For the criminal and vicious members of society, protection of their own rights would mean; robbery, and bloodshed with the arms that they have. So the common people should not be allowed to keep arms as it can lead to crime rate going higher in the nation.
