The government doesn't give me the right to own guns and defend myself, it merely ensure I continue to have that right.

Scalia disagreed with you.

My liberties don't come from government. My rights come to me from a higher authority, and I'm not religious.

So who's your "higher authority"? And why should any of us recognize it? What you're saying is that you have the right to do anything you damn please.

That isn't what civilization is about.
