You should read the book “A People’s History of the United States”. The government isn’t there for you, it’s there to protect the interests of industry. Time and time again the government has turned against its own citizens because they didn’t agree with the government.
The purpose of the second amendment is to ensure that the masses have the ability to defend themselves from a tyrannical government, but it also inadvertently plays a huge role in people’s ability to defend themselves and others from those who mean to cause serious harm.
A gun is the only thing that levels the field; by matter how small or weak you are, guns allow you to defend yourself against the biggest, strongest person, or several people. There just isn’t anything else like that.
I agree with this comment. While it’s true that gun control can save lives, there’s always another freedom in line you can revoke to save lives as well.
Banning encryption would save lives too. Do you support that?
Is the utility in allowing the general population to own guns even in the same ballpark as the utility encryption provides to society?

What do you need encryption for? You trust the government, don’t you?
