How many times has the feds raided your house to take your guns away?
since 1991? once. I had a class 3, and they got bad information from someone, but the atf did not give a crap, they just came in and took everything, and gave it back after they found the information to be bad.
I got rid of my class 3 about a few years ago.

Who said "mama bear" cant protect herself? Just don't like ballless losers with assault weapons mowing people down. Don't see the contradiction?
really? want to go there? if you look at the democrats view on assault weapons, then any weapon can be considered an assault weapon. better start banning those hammers, steak knives and pools, since all have killed more than rifles have.
if you want cowards, then you have to look no futher than a person who refuses to arm themselves and to only rely on the cops to protect them, when the cops have no duty to protect the individual citizen.
Do we have an unalienable right to protect ourselves?
What's unalienable cannot be taken away or denied. Its most famous use is in the Declaration of Independence, which says people have unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
To find the origins of the word unalienable, we can look at the root, alien, which comes from the Latin alienus, meaning "of or belonging to another." This provides the basis for our word, with the prefix un- providing the turnaround "not," and the suffix -able providing the idea of capability. Therefore, we get “not able to be denied.†Oh, and if you are wondering about the common argument as to whether it is "unalienable" or "inalienable," either is correct.
Who has the right to try and take this right from us?
I suspect the momma bear got the protective feeling as soon as she saw those "baby browns" looking up at her. Before that, she couldn't care less.

That's ridiculous to bring up such nutty things. You've convinced yourself George Washington and Thomas Jefferson wanted ignorant rednecks to have any weapon they want up to nuclear bombs. You're injecting your own irrational beliefs into what people should have, assault weapons' only purpose is to mow people down. Sane people do not feel the need to brutally murder people they disagree with.

since you really do not know what you are talking about.
mow people down? guess what, obama was wrong in his speech when he said that the firearms used were automatic, so dont go believing your idol.
both thomas jefferson and george washington wanted the entire people to have and use firearms. too bad you cant see that. all you have to do is look up quotes by both presidents and see for yourself.
if you cant find any then let me know and i will gladly provide them for you.
you are still in the mistaken idea that government or cops have to protect you, since neither has to protect any single individual, that is a responsiblity that is left to the individual.
as far as calling people derogatory names, if you want to see someone that is ignorant, then you have no further to look than in the mirror.
Rights are fundamental to society, which requires sentience to know what those concepts are.
Comparing rights of humans to bears in nature makes no sense.
Rights can be taken away, and they have been. Blacks didn't have the right to life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness that the OP says cannot be taken away for over a century in the US. Rights are abstract concepts about how we want to live in society, and what we think are ethically right. Without laws and enforcement those rights don't truly exist.
We can also take away many rights when some one breaks the laws of society. Which is why we can lock up murderers.
