A nuclear weapon indisriminately kills and leaves waste and destruction in its aftermath. A firearm is a precision weapon with clear targets and intentions (if needed).

The same could be said of a cannon armed warship in the late 18th century, and the constitution, even putting the second amendment aside, aknowledges private ownership of those. The second amendment says "arms" not "firearms". Are not the treaties which purport to control nuclear weapons called "arms control treaties"?
