Self defense is a right all species on this planet have claimed for all time. It was and is unimaginable that someone would claim the state should have the power to restrict or have the need to enumerate this preexisting right.

The rest of esquared's comment is pure bigotry and should be regarded as "hate speech".

The Nevada ACLU has done the right thing. The right to keep and bear arms is a specific enumerated right (Justice Scalia's words) and for a Civil Liberties organization to ignore that would be hypocritical. The national ACLU office is having that vigorously pointed out to them on their blog (http://blog.aclu.org/2008/07/01/heller-d...). Check it out.
