I like the sentiment, but a populace/resistance armed with inferior weaponry will have a HELL of a time against a modern army or police force, especially where the opposing force has little qualm against "civilian" losses.

(BTW, I think this is the reason the United States is losing the "war" in Iraq. We're hobbled by media & propagandists carting out any civilian losses that can be attributed to our troops - we're supposed to be fighting a "sanitized" war against an enemy who has no such impedances... but that's probably another thread.)

Now, I realize it's not practical to give tanks, nukes, etc. to the populace, so as a Constitutionist, my question is: Given the fact that it was supposed to protect the populace against internal and external tyranny, has the second amendment become obsolete?
