We we're all born with the right to maintain our own personal safety in the form of self-defense. However, many crazy folk out there believe that your own safety isn't a God given right and thus try to take away forms of self-defense such as owning weapons. What's next? Martial Arts and self-defense classes? Pepper spray, tazers, and other forms of non-permanent injury self-defense devices? I think we should all step back, take a breath, and start over from the beginning and realize why it was written SPECIFICALLY into the Constitution and Bill of Rights that “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.”
I would HIGHLY recommend that you take a gander at Rick Lynch's "The Roots of the Second Amendment" at the Future of Freedom Foundation website: http://www.fff.org/freedom/fd0805e.asp
