"Then who can own nuclear bombs?"
Governments,and it's not so much a question of "can" as it is "who can stop them?".
And for those of you who are dogmatic,please note that in a Constitutional Republic like ours,the gooberment is SUPPOSED to be the "people",and they "own" the nukes in OUR name. Even Bubba-1 couldn't have gotten away with shoplifting one to take home.

The main argument I have seen for bearing arms is it serves as a deterrent against tyranny. IF that is the case, if the govt can own one, then I should too.
