Would it have made a difference if the guy at Tiananmen Square had a gun?
If not, then how does the second amendment help stop a tyrannical government?
u_bin_called, I like your argument better. Still, there's the problem of modern weapons firing at a much faster rate than muskets. Modern guns are deadlier than 18th century artillery. Does the 2nd amendment include the right to bear artillery?

how does the First Amendment stop tyrannical government....or the Fifth....or the Seventh?
answer: they DON'T.... The Bill of Rights exists to outline what the government cannot do to infringe upon INATE rights, lest they become tyrannical....

Your analogy is stupid.
