Most any of those will do quite nicely! :-)

My best friend and business partner's forebear, Robert Morris, signer of both the Declaration and the Constitution, privately owned warships.

Mortaged them all to the French in order to feed and equip the troops at Valley Forge, though.

Never recovered his financial empire and basically died a pauper.

Pretty damned good investment, though. I have no doubt he would agree.

If they did, they privately owned CANNONS, crew served weaponry, which you can own today.

So much for all this silly fretting about whether Keyes supports "training" while Obama supports a ban on the transfer or purchase of semi-automatic weapons.

To Obama's credit, at least he doesn't use that silly assault weapons nonsense, he want's your 10/22 and he'll get it.

But Keyes supports training :<(

Go OBAMA, no guns, no training.

Not directed to you, but thanks for a great example of what's likely allowed under the 2nd amendment.
