"Why any sane human being can believe in the possibility of universal peace is more than the CONSERVATIVE can fathom. The essential pugnacity and treachery of mankind is only too evident; and that every nation, even though pledged, would actually abolish means of warfare is absolutely unthinkable. Should the entire civilized world agree simultaneously to disarm, one or more nations would undoubtedly retain secret armaments and at the proper time take advantage of their more altruistic and less astute contemporaries in a wild career of conquest against unarmed victims. To say that higher culture would reason away the causes of war is complete idiocy. (...) No country is, or ever can be "above" warfare, until the basic impulses of the human animal shall have miraculously changed."
"Aversion to just war can arise from one of four causes; (1) unconscious physical cowardice engendered by long years of peace, (2) hysterical idealism produced from incomplete training in pure science, (3) mental bias derived from an erratic, temperamental intellect, and (4) that plain, obtuse servility which copies and spreads the opinions of others."
"(...) Theodore Roosevelt's famous speech of August 25, 1915, marks a momentous change in American public sentiment. It is the beginning of the end of supine submissiveness (...) on the part of the majority. Americans will henceforth be less eager to drug themselves with arguments and theories; they will prefer to face bare Truth, and to know that men must fight to keep what they have; that in this world of sin nothing exists unless there exists behind it the stern physical power to defend and preserve it."
- H. P. Lovecraft, October 1915, The Conservative

Probably one of the better and more eloquently explained ways of peace in general and how widespread permanent peace is physically impossible within a mentally superior race like Humans that have the divine gift of free will.

It touches specifically on Nation-based peace, as all nations demilitarizing / disarming themselves in a global agreement is not possible, as one nation may think "that nation over there has been my enemy and been on thin ice for centuries, what is keeping them from saving a couple of weapons in secret to strike at me later after everyone is disarmed and unprotected? I can't count on the countries I DO trust to protect me since they're disarming too. I have to ALSO arm in secret to prevent that"

This same logic can be applied to the reasoning behind individual liberties on the right to protect family, community, self, and property carefully laid out within the United States' Second Amendment.

Inability to understand that no matter how many claim to agree to disarm and never act in an uncivilized way towards another, there will ALWAYS be people who cheat the agreement, try to find loopholes, or completely ignore any regulations, laws, rules, or moral promises in place in order to have the ability to act in an overpowering manner towards another.

We are emotional beings, and that includes anger and hatred. It is impossible to expect every single human to act in a civil, perfect manner, and attempting to regulate or force that is a literal hypocritical way of allowing a ruling or governmental entity to have "the upper hand" on power and infringement on an individual, group, or community's values and rights.

Therefore, the United States' Second Amendment solidifying a legal position on the inalienable right to bear arms is the most morally sound way to allow every individual, group, family, community, and nation (although not dictated outside the US by the 2A), the ability to defend and protect through strategic and overpowering force against any foe that wishes to sleight, inhibit, infringe, or block said inalienable rights of the entities thereof without prejudice.
