cameras every ten feet? LOL
 
surely you jest, carl, you obviously haven't been here
 
and orwell is generally believed to be "of his time" and any relevance to the UK people (in particular) lending themselves to being wooly and subjegated is attendent only to the fact that we love to identify and document our oppressors- celebrate them, even- we have a constitutional monarchy remember ;)
 
and see into homes?   whoopee... people in cars, pedestrians can see into my home- and if i want to hide- then i have a net curtain ;)
 
the subject/ citizen argument you offer is good for philisophical theory- but is immaterial practically.
your guns are mere comforters against your percieved threat from the government, because, dude, the government are always going to have an H-bomb bigger than yours- you cannot protect yourself from them. you may have a chance against criminals (if they are cheap criminals) but dream on boy about defending yourself from anyone with decent resources.

No guns. Cameras every 10 feet on the street. cameras that can see into homes
from the street.  A national DNA typing program in the works. Wasn't George
Orwell from the UK?
An unarmed population is a population of serfs.
