198. What do you mean you "can't possess nuclear arms"?
Edited on Wed Dec-08-04 04:05 PM by slackmaster
There is no federal law against you acquiring or owning one. Your mileage may vary depending on what state you live in. (Oh, I see you are Canadian so the point is moot.)

If you are a legal US resident who can pass the federal background check, pay the $200 transfer fee, get a signoff from your local chief law enforcement officer, comply with all laws, regulations, and international treaties for safe storage and transport of a nuclear bomb, you have the money to buy one and you really want one I support your right to have your very own nuke.

OTOH if you aren't really interested in owning a nuclear weapon why are you complaining?

The 2nd amendment makes clear that it is my right to have a Titan missile in my back yard. It's a right, not a privilege.

If you were a US citizen it certainly would be your right to have a Titan missile but you would not be entitled to a FREE one.
