You're not defenseless, dk. You clearly have the will to fight should the need arise. I'm not sure we'd have the exact same definition of when the line has been crossed, but I'm certain that, should that line be crossed, you'd rise up. That's why you're not defenseless. It's the will that makes the difference, not the tool.
And anyone can make a bomb from practically anything. We don't need a Constitutional right to bear gasoline and Styrofoam or fertilizer.

I stand by my opinion, though, and I think I can make a strong case for it even to someone who has a much different opinion of guns.
