only the government should have guns, and rich people who hire private security. Government should have a monopoly on force, there is no way they would ever abuse their power or expand or become authoritarian, there is no history of the government ever lying to the citizens or acting against the interest of the citizen in a democracy so we shoudl all just ban and give up our guns and give the government the sole ability to use force.

Freedom from anxiety is not a thing. Self defense on the other hand is a self evident natural right.
Are you a bot? You keep babbling about "natural rights" when the rights that Americans have are enshrined in the constitution, and can be amended when society changes.
The constitution recognizes that we have natural rights that predate any government. The constitution does not grant us rights. The constitution establishes a government, and in doing so, explicitly imposes restrictions on the government to prevent it from curtailing these rights that we already had and that we still have even after creating this government.
Rights are not subject to the whims of the mob. The entire foundation of this country is based on this philosophical framework. It is utterly unique in world history and there is no plan B. That is why 2A rights (and 1A, and 3A, and…) are so passionately defended.
Natural rights are as much a fairy tale as "god". there is no such thing. "natural rights" is just liberal speak for god.
