One risk of the government restricting citizens’ Second-Amendment right to bear arms might be which of the following selections?
cluponka [151]

The answer is: A

The Second Amendment states the right of an individual to own a firearm as well as the right to form a regulated militia.

As such, we can deduct that the purpose of the amendment was made to not only protect an individual's right to own a firearm, but in case of an unjust regime, be able to fight against it through the use of said firearms.

Restricting a citizen's right to own a firearm, will in turn decrease the ability of citizens to stand up against an unjust regime.
