There is a bone of Contention amongst those who study the Constitution, and that would be the 9th and 10th Amendments. Some (the Hippie /Commie/Progressive Crowd) say that means "just because it ain't written down, doesn't mean I don't have the Right to (fill in the blank) whenever I feel like it, and you can't stop me!" Others ( the Conservitive, Practical, Grounded in Reality Crowd) say that they Founders never meant to imply that Anarchy can Reign Supreme, as there are limits.
But no matter what side you are, there are Rights that are written down, and the Commies better get get used to the Fact that they have no right to try to remove them, such as the RKBA. Or THEY should start to face the Consequences of their actions. If the Chaos in the Middle East should teach ANYONE in Power in the West, is that they are just as vulnerable to removal as any Middle Eastern Thug Dictator, no matter how long they've been in Charge.
To be confident and competent enough with a rifle to be able to hit anything I can see in a Jovian Thunderbolt kind of way.
To be able to defend myself with a handgun.

"You never select a shotgun as your primary anti-zombie firearm. It's great for onesy twosey, but zombies travel in hordes. The reload time is onerous, and the ammo, while effective, is heavy and bulky and short ranged."

If Ginsberg had let Scalia put the words "strict scrutiny" in Heller and Hillary said "Gun control is just not going to be a priority for my administration," Hillary would have been elected President.
