I have this feeling as well. But then I look at other countries and it seems we take for granted the fact that our country's government is stable and will forever do a halfway-decent job protecting our rights as citizens. There's no guarantee. It might be overly paranoid to stock up your own militia in case of the government turning on us, but I can at least see where people like Cody are coming from.

The idea that the USA will descend to a level where the populous need to take to the street with weapons is largely fantasy, and a fantasy that the population pays for dearly to keep alive.

History disagrees. There hasn't been a single government in the history of mankind that has not degenerated to the point where it must be removed. And no, the US government will not be the first. Even if it's a 1000 years from now, it's worthwhile to preserve the right for future generations.
