Liberals are resentful of nearly everything our framers did and stood for, but, in the grand scheme of things, one thing stands out beyond all the rest.
The 2nd Amendment.
Our framers understood the greatest danger to the republic would come from within, and, therefore, they made certain that we, as citizens, have the right to arm ourselves.
Yes, it is so that we might protect our property and our lives; and yes, part of the reason for it back then was the fact that help in any official capacity was, in many cases, at best, hours away if not days. Yes, that is part of it.
The bigger part of it was the founders provision to arm the citizens against their own government.
This is what liberal/socialists are not just resentful of, but fear.
The 2nd Amendment is what really stands between a government take-over and a free republic.
