So you think Iran should have nuclear weapons?It should never be a crime to own any firearm (or phaser). The crime should be the illegal thing that is done with the weapon.
All nuclear material in the US is controlled by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. I can't even buy a nuclear scale or handle nuclear medical devices with a license. The cost of a nuclear weapon would be prohibited for all but a billionaire even if they got a license from the NRC. I don't think they are issuing very many licenses for nuclear weapons. Silly example.
The cost will prevent most Americans from owing anything but small arms so your example is ridiculous.
I should be able to own anything if I don't use it in a crime, shouldn't I? If I don't use it in a crime what business should it be of yours? Don't you believe in Liberty?
