It means United States Citizens, have a god given right to keep and bear arms/guns. And the government CanNot make any Laws to infringe this right. Like freedom of speech? Reality: The FBI does a background check before you can buy a gun. You cannot carry that gun anywhere, you'll get arrested and your property stolen. If you're lucky enough to live in a state with consealed carry it's expensive and likely will not issue the permit. See Above-the sad truth is the second amendment is worthless, as thousands of laws INFRINGE on our right.
It means that the second amendment to the Constitution gives all citizens of the United States the irrevocable right to obtain, keep and bear arms, and this right shall NOT be infringed upon by ANYBODY.

Does the second amendment mean protects peoples right to have weapons?
Technically yes, but if you see you must search for the limits in the second amendment. For war? Okay, you can have them there are gun carrying laws and u cannot use them. You must have a license to a gun if you do want one. Technically there shouldn't be any rules against it considering the US constitution states that this right may NOT be infringed. Now is this fair is the question...

What is the amendment 2?
The purpose of amendment 2 to the Constitution is to protect the rights of a free People to defend themselves from the tyranny of government. The explicit intent of the second amendment is to allow every person to own military style weapons in order to secure for the citizenry the ability to rebel against government tyranny at a moment's notice. The British attempted to disarm the Americans and later, when conflict was anticipated, to seize their military style arms from an arsenal, and since the first act of a tyrannical government is to disarm the citizens, the Founders put this protection in to ensure that military style weapons were free to own and could be kept by every individual, without license or knowledge by the State and without infringement.
