The Right to Bear Arms as a Check on Tyranny

 See p. 699 and its discussion of citizens' militias "consisting of all able-bodied men" as a check on tyranny.

What does this mean? Is an armed citizenry still needed as a check on tyranny and tyrants? 

What should a free people do when government locks the doors of their places of worship or rounds up their children and raises them in state institutions? 

But this will never happen in our world, will it?
