The right of self-preservation is something we're all born with. It is a natural right. A firearm is a tool, and everyone has the right to have the best tools available to them. Like any tool it can be misused, but the majority of people are not criminals, and most criminals won't work within the laws anyway.
I'm not against proper training, I'm against the government
requiring it. If you want to purchase a firearm without any experience, you should first see if a friend or family member would be able to take you out, show you the ropes. Barring that, there are plenty of classes available.
