The right to own a gun is within natural law, it's just like gravity? Since the beginning of time? I had no idea!
Gravity is pure physical science. Rights are a concept.

Natural rights are no less immutable or deniable than gravity itself. They aren't a "concept" or an "idea". They are real, tangible, and undeniable. As the founders said, they are self-evident.

Only if I am violating your right to life, liberty, and property. You only have the right to kill in your own defense.

Property? Own defense? Are you saying that we were born with the right to have "stuff" and kill to keep our "stuff"?
