BTW, did anyone know there are no laws regulating or prohibiting flamethrowers? Nothing says stopping power like a squirt of 2,200 degree Fahrenheit flaming jellied gasoline.
Just make sure you use clean burning ethanol gas in that.

The money quote from the article:
Whether we are discussing salt, tobacco, gasoline, fountain drinks, greasy hamburgers, or guns, much wrong-headed policy today is being driven by the question, "How much does anyone need?" In Venezuela, Soviet Russia, or present-day England, it might be different, but here the correct answer is, "Whatever they want."
Not because we support greed, plundering the rest of the world, or any of the other accusations the left throws at the right, but because of sovereignty. Your sovereignty.

Something interesting that I got curious about skimmed once is how letters of Marque and Reprisal didnt authorize scopes of firepower. Congress just assumed private citizens knew where a private citizen could buy canon. No permission was needed to buy it, arm it or fire it. You only needed Congresses permission to fire it at a foreigner.
I like that. Excellent point!

The only pictures I seen of obama looking happy, he looked very creepy. There is that one on the couch with his pakistani roommate. There is also that one with him giggling like a fag during that karate match on the whitehouse lawn. There isn’t to many others of him as an adult I can recall. Usually he has a very bitter face.

Given the current occupant of the White House, I wish I could
bear a 155mm howitzer. I wish I could
bear a 81mm mortar. I wish I could
bear a W88 nuclear device.
Unfortunately, I could bear a RPG, but can't find one on the underground market.
5.56mm

Letters of Marque and Reprisal simply gave the bearer legal standing so as not to be considered a pirate.

At the bare minimum whatever the fed govt possesses, since they are buying with my tax dollars. I have the right to be equally armed.When my moonbat liberal colleagues ask me the inane question I simply respond thusly: If the infantry carries it, the people must have it too, but in greater numbers! That usually sends most of them screaming from the room.
