Self defense is an inalienable right. There are those who will say "the police will protect you." There are many fine, dedicated police officers but there are few, if any, instances when a policeman has actually prevented an assault on a citizen - they simply can't be everywhere at the same time. If self defense is criminalized, then the best we can expect is to have a very fine report written after we are murdered.

Self defense is an inalienable right.

Main Entry: in·alien·able
Pronunciation: (")i-'nAl-y&-n&-b&l, -'nA-lE-&-n&-
Function: adjective
Etymology: probably from French inaliénable, from in- +
aliénable alienable
: incapable of being alienated, surrendered, or transferred

- in·alien·abil·i·ty /-"nAl-y&-n&-'bi-l&-tE, -"nA-lE-&-n&-/ noun
- in·alien·ably /-'nAl-y&-n&-blE, -'nA-lE-&-n&-/ adverb

""incapable of being alienated, surrendered, or transferred""

Incapable. in every dictonary I have checked the same word is there, incapable.

One can not give it up even if one wanted to. Most certainly it can not be "revoked" or removed by a law.
