And the keeping of heavy weapons in our "garages" (whatever exactly is meant by that).

Whatever you want it to mean if you will just make your point. Stipulate any meaning you want, but I'm not going to play gotcha guessing games with you.

Sigh ... I'm not playing "gotcha games" ... I'm trying to find out what you had in mind when you asked me the question about keeping nukes in one's garage.

Seriously ... A "garage" could be an underground structure in Manhattan, a part of a house in suburbia, a shed in the middle of the desert hundreds of miles from anything ...

make your point

One does not have the right to violate other people's rights. I hope you would agree with that. Even the "right to life" does not authorize murder for the purpose of cannibalism (even in the absence of any other food source).

Similarly, the right to keep and bear arms does not authorize conduct which threatens the life, health, or property of others. How one "keeps and bears" a rifle or pistol differs from how one "keeps and bears" grenades, artillery, poisons, nukes ... in order to not threaten the life, health, or property of one's neighbours.
