the second amendment was not written for deer or bear hunting..

it was written to allow the citizens to overthrow a government gone rogue..

with that in mind, any and all arms that our nations military possesses, we not only have a right, but a DUTY to possess and maintain..

this includes cannon, tank, mortar and grenades..

we also have a right to possess aircraft, naval surface and beneath surface vessels and missiles..

now for the a$$hole who asks if this includes nuclear weapons i have but one question..

if a rogue government has taken control of this country, and their only hope of maintaining control was to nuke cities, would they do it???

if your answer is yes, then my answer is yes, we as citizens have not only a right but a duty to possess nuclear weapons..

i await your answers

Since we built and paid for the nukes, I think we do own them. However, possession and ownership are two different things.

Subject, perhaps, to certain zoning restrictions.

Exactly. 2A is the Constitution's Doomsday provision. For it to have its intended effect, there must be no infringement on the ownership and use by private citizens of effective combat arms, not sporting arms.

If you demonstrate an inability to keep or bear weapons safely, the rest of us have the right to use our weapons to disarm you for our safety. If you walk down the street pointing as handgun at random passers by, don’t be surprised if someone disarms you. If you store a nuclear weapon in your basement, don’t be surprised if the million people in the blast radius and fallout zone disarm you.
