My homie, not all rights are there because they're part of the body.
The right to defense, which is core to the right to bear arms, is no more or less valid than the right of free speech, the right to due process, etc.
I agree that the right to body autonomy is of paramount importance. I would even argue that it's the single most important right a human can have.
This does not invalidate the right to defense, or the extension of that which is necessary so long as any guns exist. If every gun on the planet turned into manure, and every mind was wiped of how to make them, I'd be perfectly happy. But as long as they exist, the right of anyone to defend themselves, their loved ones, their nation/region/culture requires access to them.
We go back to bows and arrows, spears, swords, and do away with anything like a gun, that's great. Just be aware that there will always be some kind of object that is the top choice for a weapon. Even if that choice is limited to rocks and sticks with no changes to them, then access to them is mandatory for the right to defense.
You want to ban guns? Great. Start with the militaries of the world. Then the police. After that's done, I'm open to negotiations regarding personal ownership and usage.
My homie, bodily autonomy beats tiny dick replacement therapy in the form of weaponry any time. No matter how real the threat might be, which is in most cases imaginary.
Oh, so you're just looking for an excuse to be a douche. Have fun with that.
If that's your definition then yes. Very much.
