Do they need: starbucks, fag tv, dope, iPads, frisbees, booze, tobacco, fast foreign cars, fag clothes made in Cambodia, trips on those evil polluting aircraft to foreign countries... ad naseum?

So, I should be allowed to buy a bazooka or dynamites as long as I want to use them for fun and not to harm others? (I’ve heard that argument too).

I don’t see why not. If it really does not hurt anyone or others property. You can do more damage with a truck load of fertilizer and some chems.

So hypothetically, if you do own dynamite and don't use it to harm others, who but you will know? Does a tree falling in the forest...

If you wanted to harm others you don't need dynamite, you could stand on an expressway overpass and drop rocks on cars passing below, as children of the "inner city" do on occasion when they become bored.

Guns don't cause harm by themselves, they are inanimate objects, not posesed of a will of their own. If you decide to harm others you make the decision not the implement you use to carry out your will. In a fit of rage you could possibly beat someone to death with your bare hands. Do we preemptively cut off your hands, lest you sin?
