Does the individual have the God given right of defending one’s self and their family? If yes, then why does the government want to restrict or prevent the individual from exercising the right of self defense?

A- There’s something wrong with a government that thinks it can make your life decisions for you better than you can.

B- There’s something wrong with a government that thinks taking over the medical insurance industry constitutes healthcare and that taking away the right to defend one’s life constitutes protection.

C- There’s something wrong with a government that can take away your rights.

“There’s something wrong with a country that thinks that healthcare is a privilege. ....duh yea!

Gun rights keeps me out of health care and the bad guy in it.

The way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.

Gun rights say you can own a gun for self protection if you want to purchase one. Obamacare is forced purchasing of good and services.

Gun rights are immaterial.

Health care as a right would be material and thus forcing or coercion of goods and services provided from one to another under goverment force and penalty. This is a form of institutionalized slavery for the “common good” vs. The private system where goods and services are voluntary under an organic market place.

Tell her gun rights advocates do not advocate taxing everyone to poverty so the goverment can forcibly buy a gun for everyone and make it illegal to not have a government gun.

Here's my comeback:

American gun owners will make sure that gun grabbers no longer need health insurance.

Just had a slight revelation.
To argue with a leftist that the government doesn’t have anything it doesn’t first take from the people is not an argument that makes sense to a leftist.
To a leftist (who wants free health insurance and free college, etc.) he thinks in a collectivist frame of mind. There are no individual people who the government taxes, there is only the collective that owns everything.
That is where the “We’re not broke” meme comes from. Everything belongs to the collective, the administrators of the collective just aren’t distributing stuff justly.

“Pieces of the pie”.

The leftist has a complete disconnect from the reality (feel free to explain it to them) that if you took all the wealth and distributed it equally we would all be starving in a year or so. Wealth just “is” it is not created or destroyed, it is just hoarded by the rich.
Thank you modern Universities for Marxist indoctrination!

Healthcare run by the government is a means of control and so is taking away your gun. Nobody has the right to force somebody else to take care of them. That’s as much robbery as stealing. It’s just done by people in suits with credentials. While you may be the beneficiary in one case eventually they’ll rob from you too.

“You’re right. There should be mandatory gun ownership with penalties for non compliance, and we should subsidize gun purchases for poorer people.

Call it ‘Obamagun’ or something.”

Sure. (Leaving aside the natural right, and the constitutional right) - Owing a gun is your choice, and is passive (it doesn’t require anyone else to do anything).

“Healthcare” involves the services of many other people, and usually their money as well. If you have a “right” to it, it follows that those other people are your slaves should they be unwilling to serve you on their terms, i.e., the execution of your “right” requires that you have the power to compel their labor, or their money, or both.

Two completely different concepts.

There's an internet meme going around that says, "There's something wrong with a country that thinks that healthcare is a privilege but owning a gun is a right". Anyone have a good comeback for this?

The meme says "healthcare" but means "healthcare insurance" or some one else paying for my healthcare costs.

The right of self protection is inherent to the human condition, a right given by our Creator, when he gave us our souls with FRee will.

Insurance is a man made, individual responsibility.

There’s something wrong with people who think slavery is wrong, but freedom is too complicated.
