Indeed. Self defense in an inherent human right, regardless of what the Second Amendment say. In fact, the right precedes its enumeration.
Self defence is a right, with all the same limitations that other rights have as well. When your right to self defence collides with another person's right to life, which one should give way first? Lethal force should only be an acceptable defence against lethal force. Against anything other than that, it's a violation of another human being's rights.
It's hard to evaluate if your attacker uses lethal force or not, while you are attacked.
