And in any case, the point is that arming a population isn't what prevents tyranny. What prevents tyranny is a political change in the government to put in a liberal democratic system that gives everyone civil rights.

No but gun ownership isn't actually what gives people rights. In fact it often prevents it. The Civil Rights moment focused on using the Federal Government to guarantee legal rights, and that was far and away the most effective way to end the oppression.
