Rights are absolute. They do not come from government, and a just government has no power to legislate them. What we have now is an unjust (tyrannical) government that needs to be dismantled by force by principled men and women.
And...you are absolutely correct.

Yep, the right to keep and bear arms makes no sense at all if the government (which the right is meant to keep in check) has any power to infringe upon it to any extent. The Founders intentionally removed said right from the authority of Government to interfere with it in any way by means of the Second Amendment. "Shall not be infringed" is extremely clear language. It doesn't say, "unless this or except in the case of that."
