I am a socialist, and a leftist(of sorts). There are plenty of libertarian oriented leftists who understand self defense just fine, and there are plenty of right wing fundamentalists who do not. You really should get to know your "peers" a bit better. It's important to know what your fellow citizens actually think about certain acts rather than just painting them with a broad brush.
Anti gun people do enough painting with a broad brush for everyone. Nobody wants their political or economic view of the world used to dismiss everything they say on any subject. The older I get the more I believe that most people want the same thing for their families and their communities, they just have different views on how to get there.
