The right to keep and bear arms is a civil right. It is as much a civil right as the right to free speech, the right to a free press, the right to practice one’s religion freely, and so on down the line. It’s right there in the Constitution.

So - from now on, we should label “Gun control” people as “anti-civil rights activists”.

Those are all natural rights which enjoy civil protection. The notion of "civil rights" originates on the left.
