Should citizens be allowed to own/ stockpile automatic weapons and rocket launchers?

Question

It's about where to draw the line re the 2nd amendment.

For those who answered yes (genuinely) how about nuclear weapons?

Answer 1

YES i like the idea of being able to buy anything i want with my money .AND by that i mean anything at all .IF it is forsale and i can buy it NO one should stop me .totaly free markets .the only thing we can not buy is people under the age of reproductivity .
THIS would allow me to purchase breeding pairs of people so i would never need to pay workers .
THIS is true capitalism .NO one has the right to broker a human sale except the person themselves . THIS will prevent slavery that is forced by unscrupulous people who would capture others and sell them .I always wanted to build some homes and fill them with workers so i could be free from government intervention and wage requirements .then arm them to defend against the government that would want some of my productivity for itself .
I could share the wealth with the workers who could buy back there freedom but by now they would want to stay and protect what we built together .
LIKE during the civil war slaves defended the homes and lands of the good masters and this should of never changed in the south . people here took great pride in the workers they had and many did not know a day of misery .
TO bad jelous northern bankers and jews in manufacturing hated the south for its wonderful ways and bought out several plantations and began abusing the workers gave us all a bad name down here .
ASK the black folk who lived and worked on the plantations and farms if they suffered .
ITS no different then the guy working at burger king coplaining about the boss he workers for .
He aint gonna get a better job anywhere so who is he kidding .
CAN not make a gold shilling from a silver dollar .SO you can not make a burger flipper into a rocket scientist .

Answer 2

ah, the very heart of the debate over the 2nd amendment. Do citizens as individuals have this right or does the right exist only for state militias? I like giving people the right to protect themselves but I think the danger from automatic weapons and rockets launchers in the wrong hands outweighs the benefits.

Answer 3

Put into the wrong hands, rocket launchers and other top heavy weaponry post a serious risk and could result in many needless deaths. The same can be said for handguns and other concealed weapons. This is why societies and governments impose REASONABLE restrictions on ownership of such weapons (in accordnance with the amount of risk they pose), such as banning the mentally ill or convicted felons from owning handguns or restricting assault weapons solely for military use. However, even that is too much government "interference" for the likes of rabid gun-nuts and hardcore "Constitutionalists" alike. Therefore, if they oppose gun control of any type, logically speaking, they must accept that even military weaponry should be allowed on the open market. Your comparison isn't that far off as it seems.

Answer 4

I believe in protecting oneself. BUT you are going a little to far. There is enough hatred in this world and if this would take place, there would be more. My husband has a weapon, hand gun and it is registered with the Police department. Automatic weapons and rocket launcher if going a little to far....

Answer 5

I don;t thik citizens should not be allowed to do so. Because, if you believe in peaceful society and law and order, people with personal weapons and launcher may be against it. If people in society need weapons, what the use of government? What's the of taxes we pay, which party government should use partly to protect us?

Answer 6

No. Not in any country!!

Unless you are going up against some sort of radioactively altered deer that "just needs killin' "

Just look at the people that do... we call them "White Supremacists," "Terrorists," and "Wackos."

Personally, I don't like the idea that my neighbor is better armed than the military. You know why, the FBI is going to raid the house and destroy my yard, probably shoot out my windows, and use my car as a shield.

Answer 7

No, I am pro gun, but that is ridicoulous. I own a hand gun and plan to get more. But only bad can come out of having rocket launchers.

Answer 8

YES!!!!!

The bigger the better.

Our best chance of protecting America from the Plutocrats is Magnetic Pulse cannons.

Go big Red Go

Answer 9

Previously I thought NOT but now with the way the world is going and with the stupid way our politicians are running the place (into the ground), I am changing my thoughts on that.

Answer 10

Hell yeah!! I got my AT-4 missile launcher just in case!!
