Most people will go through their entire life and never need a gun. Those who do will need one very badly. The problem is that no one will tell you in advance when that will occur. Some people will lose their lives because they "chose poorly."

But all of that is completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand. Whether you believe in God given rights or natural law, every human being has the right to defend their life and the lives of their loved ones. Blackstone reasoned that depriving someone of the right to defend their life was logically to deprive them of life itself. Further, to deprive someone of the means to defend their life was to deprive them of the right to do so.

In short, my rights are not determined by her opinion of my needs.
