1991As we stated in the case of In re Estate of Greenberg, 390 So.2d 40, 43 (Fla. 1980), appeal dismissed, 450 U.S. 961 , 101 S.Ct. 1475 , 67 L.Ed.2d 610 (1981), a strict-scrutiny analysis applies whenever a statutory classification "impinges upon a fundamental right explicitly or implicitly protected by the constitution." I do not imply that the state always is precluded from depriving certain persons of the right of self defense.
