+78 (second amendment interpretation 56)

Continuing from the preceding post

Third, I have just started into what courts call substantive due process. It seems to be about applying the protection offered to the "person" in the due process clause of the fourteenth amendment by expanding the view to what a person is and arguing for the actions in question as being an extension to the existence of that person. But regardless of how many precaution layers people may seek their self defense right for, self defense right is not just about satisfying the capability for self defense. And although nobody is denying the self defense right, the connection of that to gun ownership is dependent on the external environment and does not directly extends from the self. So how could substantive due process apply here?
The external versus internal connection about which I am speaking here is at the level of the beginning urge. Unlike, for example food to hunger or birth control to sex, using a gun for self defense is by definition can only be called for externally.
