Second amendment is to guarantee the first amendment (free speech). This allows the citizens to criticize government freely associate with others and petition government for redress of wrongs etc. It also serves as a strong check against government overreach and abuse of force on its citizens.✌️💜

Everyone keeps telling me that, but we have that here, even without the 2nd Amendment. And Europeans have ovethrown their governments, repeatedly and regularly, including in Western and Central Europe, within my lifetime, without the 2nd Amendment. Sometimes even completely peacefully.
