I'm not a legal scholar and I'm sure someone else has thought of this
Seems like the Declaration of Independence teams up with the Constitution.
"We hold these truths to be self evident...."
"Life,Liberty,and the pusuit of Happiness"
I'm thinking,tjhe right to Life would have to include the right to defend ones life.
States typically have laws about the citizen using deadly force in self defense.It seems this implies the citizen's right to the means to apply deadly force,gun,knife,rock,or nunchucks.
I certainly treasure and support the 2A,but it might be that on a more basic level,regardless of the militia and free state arguement there is a right to be armed for self defense.
I do not understand how a state could define the terms of justifiable use of deadly force by a citizen without the presumtion of the armed citizen.
Makes sense to me,anyway.
