"Could be handy - if you want to get out of a parking ticket just fry all the electronics in the Southeast U.S. thus erasing your parking citation(s). Got heavy penalties due to late/underpaid taxes...no problem. Credit card debt? Gone."

That's about a sensible to equate CC permit holders are able to kill or maim those who call their wives fat in a bar. Rocketry and RC modeling is a hobby. EMP, ICBM and SAM batteries? C'mon! (Although there are practical civilian science applications)

I agree, it is ridiculous, but it is Spktyr who is arguing that private citizens should be able to own *any* weapon that the U.S. military has - with the exception of nukes which for some reason he has excluded. I'm not sure how he feels about radiological bombs but I suspect because the 2nd amendment doesn't explicitly exclude those weapons, he would argue that it is fine.
