The right to keep and bear arms is a natural right. Not a gift from government, not a privilege, and not something that requires permission. As Samuel Adams said in 1772, <a href="https://history.hanover.edu/texts/adamss.html" target="_blank">"Among the natural rights of the Colonists are these: First, a right to life; Secondly, to liberty; Thirdly, to property; together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they can."</a> Further St. George Tucker wrote, "<a href="https://press-pubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/amendIIs7.html" target="_blank">The right of self defence is the first law of nature.</a>"</p></blockquote><p></p>
