    The odds being stacked against you is no reason to surrender. That is not the american way, we dont surrender.
    This is why some subscribe to the "well regulated militia" theory, that the 2nd amendment was intended to more or less make an army out of citizens making the US larger than the British army, at the time they were stronger and better funded than us.

    The Revolutionary War ended in September of 1783. The Bill of Rights was written in 1789. They were not fighting the British - that war had already ended.

    The US did not have an army during that period - we only had militia, and the states carried more power back then.
