Connecticut: Every citizen has a right to bear arms in defense of himself and the state. Art. I, § 15 (enacted 1818, art. I, § 17). The original 1818 text came from the Mississippi Constitution of 1817.

[Self-defense right explicitly protected.]

To summarize, we conclude that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms. - U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, Mar 9, 2007

"Peace Activists" always seem to demonstrate here in America , where it's safe."
