The 2nd amendment isn’t about hunting deer. It’s about being able to protect yourself from an out of control, tyrannical government.

The 2nd Amendment is about “the Security of a Free State”—the U.S. Government, IOW. This “tyranny resistance” bullshit was kited for absolutely the first time in an article in a RW fringe fishwrap in 1960, and the “self-defense” bullshit is even later. Fat Tony’s misbegotten Heller decision is absolutely the first SC decision that finds anything other than the Security of the State in the 2nd Amendment.
