What is the principle difference between everybody owning a gun, and Iran getting nuclear bombs? Answer: Aggressive governments will always acquire the weapons they need for conquest. The difference is that civilized nations need more weapons for self-defense.
Put it in perspective when America had a monopoly on the atomic bomb. It began when America-haters began preaching: “If everybody had the bomb nobody would use them.” American traitors even helped the Soviet Union get one!
Frankly, the Left cannot now see a problem with an Iran bomb. Tragically, I can see a bigger problem coming from Taqiyya the Liar. Should the Iranians drop a nuclear bomb on this country, or on an ally, he would call it an act of criminals, or workplace violence, but never the act of peace-loving Islam. I simply do not see him committing the US military against Islam —— less so than retaliating against a Communist country. And it isn’t as though Taqiyya the Liar is only one man. He is supported by a huge federal bureaucracy withholding the machinery of military power willing to implement his personal beliefs on behalf of Islam.
NOTE: From the day Taqiyya the Liar was sworn in he reminded me of an old 1951 movie The Magic Face. Well-known actor Luther Adler (1903 - 1984) starred as Hitler’s valet after he kills him. In short order he impersonates Hitler. Once in place he sets out to bring defeat to Nazi Germany with a chain of ruinous decisions.
Six years later after Taqiyya took office is there any doubt about his ruinous decisions after ruinous decision. If the plot intrigues you can watch a few clips of The Magic Face at this link:
Guns and nuclear bombs
Unfortunately, every average American cannot own a nuclear weapon in order to defend the country as they once could:
Nevertheless, the wisdom of owning a gun is still valid:
If nothing else moves you at least think about this:

Unfortunately, every average American cannot own a nuclear weapon in order to defend the country as they once could:
The supposed quietude of a good man allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms like laws discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. The balance of power is the scale of peace. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside. Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them; the weak would become a prey to the strong. Thomas Paine
Arms in the hands of the citizens may be used at individual discretion for the defense of the country, the overthrow of tyranny or private self-defense. John Adams
They tell us that we are weak -- unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house? Three million people, armed in the holy cause of liberty, are invincible by any force which our enemy can send against us. Patrick Henry
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty, teeth and keystone under independence. The church, the plow, the prairie wagon and citizens' firearms are indelibly related. From the hour the pilgrims landed to the present day, events, occurrences and tendencies prove that, to ensure peace, security and happiness, the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable. Every corner of this land knows firearms, and more than 99 and 99/100 percent of them by their silence indicate that they are in safe and sane hands. The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil influence. They deserve a place of honor with all that's good. When firearms go, all goes. We need them every hour. George Washington's address to the second session of the First U.S. Congress

Nevertheless, the wisdom of owning a gun is still valid:
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government. Thomas Jefferson
The constitutions of most of our States assert that all power is inherent in the people; that ... it is their right and duty to be at all times armed. Thomas Jefferson
What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. Thomas Jefferson to James Madison
A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercise, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks. Thomas Jefferson's advice to his 15-year-old nephew
I ask, Sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people. To disarm the people is the best and most effectual way to enslave them. George Mason, Co-author of the Second Amendment, during Virginia's Convention to Ratify the Constitution, 1788
And we do each of us, for ourselves respectively, promise and engage to keep a good firelock in proper order, & to furnish ourselves as soon as possible with, & always keep by us, one pound of gunpowder, four pounds of lead, one dozen gunflints, & a pair of bullet moulds, with a cartouch box, or powder horn, and bag for balls. George Mason
Among the natural rights of the colonists are these: first, a right to life, secondly to liberty, thirdly to property; together with the right to defend them in the best manner they can. Samuel Adams
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." Samuel Adams
Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined. The great object is that every man be armed. Everyone who is able may have a gun. Patrick Henry
It is the duty of the patriot to protect his country from its government. Thomas Paine
"Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed, as they are in almost every kingdom in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword, because the whole of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops." Noah Webster
The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them. Joseph Story
