I've been able to keep out of the 2A debates about what it originally meant etc (though I do think that is important). As a Libertarian, my rights are not granted by government nor are they constrained to the limit of what certain men think who authored an important document. I have them inherently and tragedy gives no one the legitimate right to take them away.

You are so right. It baffles my mind that people cannot get natural rights. As a student of Locke, it makes no sense that people do not understand them. Locke defined them as rights that everyone knows we have. Like, of course, you have a right to property, like yourself or that gun you are holding. It is my opinion that these statists are aware of those rights but choose to disregard them. The consequence of that action is that they forfeit their own rights. There will come a time when we again set nature in balance, peacefully and with Love.

especially when people having the right to bear arms did not cause that tragedy.
