the people DO need more guns - they need more guns to protect themselves from the psychotic lunatics who have taken charge of this country, but the psychotic lunatics have caught onto this and will soon ban any really useful guns completely.

We where giving the right to own guns in america when our founding farthers wrote our constition, so we could not only protect our selves from criminals, but as well as the government if it ever lost its founding, and in my opion it has and thats why they are trying to take our guns.

Not quite true.
What made the accomplishment of the Founding Fathers so unique is that they didn't give anyone any rights at all. Instead, they were the first to organize a system of government that recognized the fact that individuals by their nature possess certain rights -- among them the right to self-defense.
The Constitution is not about giving rights to individuals, but about restricting what actions the State (government) may perform.
... so we could not only protect our selves from criminals, but as well as the government if it ever lost its founding...
One hundred per cent correct.
... and in my opion it has and thats why they are trying to take our guns.
Definitely a defensible opinion, but it may also be that since politicians need to be re-elected they are usually keenly sensitive to vocal pressure groups. It seems a large number of US politicians last caught a glimpse of the Constitution when they whiped their shoes on it on the way to their new office.
