Let's pretend any of that actually matters and the US government doesn't have a history of losing to locals, and ask the following: what happens if you willingly disarm yourself? Criminals will still have guns, your police will still shoot "less-lethal" rounds into the heads of protesters, and you will still be oppressed.

What do you get out of this? A fraction of the illusion of safety? And all it cost you was the last defense against oppression anyone has.
