Feels like an Onion article doesn't it?
Regardless of one’s physical abilities, the right to self-defense is universal. Sutherland has the same right as any other law-abiding citizen to defend himself from a life-threatening attack. At the same time, like every gun owner, he bears full responsibility for every round he fires. If he were to use a firearm irresponsibly, that liability would be on him—not the government.
While it seems absurd on its face the state's gun regulations really do violate the most basic rights of humans. These violations affect the weakest among us. When I get push back from folks about guns I always go to the right to defend one's self but it is also important to say that each person should be held to account for their use of deadly force. We don't hear that enough in these conversations and it really strengthens the position of those in support of human rights.
