That's true in the US too, the Second Amendment (and the other
Amendments and the Constitution) were written and exist as guidelines to
a particular form of government and to prevent a tyranny from occurring
again.

Stefano, practically the same people have been in the Italian government
for decades, only reshuffled around. How changed would the Italian
government be if there was another quasi-permanent document in place
that mandated that Italy had a government where particular abuses
(separation of government and media, for example) could not happen?
Beppe Grillo has the right idea, but there doesn't seem to be much
power behind the method that he is using; the Italian legal and justice
system does not seem to be paying attention. (Yes, I wonder about
the US Supreme Court too. It's stacked to lean a particular way.)
