I agreed with you about "arms."

Private citizens own just about any sort of weapon imaginable. Some private company makes nukes, you know. How you use or store things can be a legitimate concern of the authorities - "do not discharge firearms within city limits" for example, or "only make and store nukes under these guidelines" or "tanks and warplanes at military museums will not be used to strafe nearby villages."

Should only wealthy people have certain rights? If self-defense is such a joke, why do wealthy people have armed body guards? Why do upscale suburbanites demand well-armed, well-staffed and highly responsive (and expensive) police protection?
