Gun ownership is a right! A right given to us from the Founders of this great nation, with the guidance of God! The government can not take or change that right! To do so, would make it no longer a right, but a privilege! And a privilege can be give or taken away by anyone in control! Just like the media has the right to report “fake news”! We need the right to bear arms!!! ---

The media is part of the anti gun movement along with the Hitler folks it looks like Germaney 1938. ---

Small tweak: The Right to keep and bear arms is inherent, it is a natural Right, it is recognized and protected from infringement by the founders of this nation…but not given to us by the founders or any other persons. It simply, is. ---

It’s an American Right! If it was a natural right, everyone in the world would own a gun! It’s just a privilege in the rest of the world! That’s why America is the perfect home of the Free!!! ---

In my view, the 2A was not enacted to create a right to bear arms, as that right is a natural law right. Rather, the 2A was intended to preserve the ability of the governed to resist a tyrannical government. It’s not about hunting or even self-defense against ordinary street crime. So, when people advocate the constriction of the 2A protections, they are essentially seeking to reduce the ability of the governed to resist a tyrannical/lawless government. ---

Having a gun now is a privilege. 1. Must pass a background check. to carry - Must have a license. Unless you live in a Constitutional Carry State. ---

It IS an inalienable right. It just so happens that the founders of THIS country are the only ones to recognize this and specifically mention it and PROTECT it in their constitution. ---

Oh, it’s absolutely a natural Right. Some other countries (and some US States, and the US to an extent) just happen to infringe upon the Right. The governments denying it doesn’t mean it’s not a natural Right. It just means it’s infringed upon or denied in many cases
