"Well regulated" local or state forces are able to confront Federal agents who are attempting to seize or abduct a legal resident without having proper authorization or due process. This is allowed under the 2nd Amendment by upholding the status of a "free State," in other words, protecting a state resident's freedoms under the Constitution and Bill of Rights. The greatest danger of fascism or authoritarianism is in eliminating our entitled freedoms. The framers of the Constitution foresaw this danger in the form of a potential monarch taking control of the Presidency.
