The right given to Americans to own firearms for hunting, sports shooting, self protection and to defend against tyranny both foreign and domestic.
America came to being when our forefathers sailed across the ocean to escape their OWN countries religious persecution of them for being Puritans, so they knew a thing about how their own birth country can turn to tyrannical ideals, this became even more evident when the British attacked. During the early war for independence, which was thrust upon early America, many soldiers had to use their own guns from home due to the fact that gun production couldn't keep up with the demand, which without guns being so widespread, the war would not have gone in Americas favor.
After being freed from British control, it was evident that if this nation was to become a shinning beacon to all those wishing to be free, not only would its citizens need to be ready for another attack from a foreign power, but also be vigilant of corruption in their own country and have the means to fix said corruption by their own hands. Thus, the bill of rights was enacted.
