Reasons civilians shouldn't own nukes.
Exhibit "A"- Say someone with no prior criminal history (like the guy that massacred those poor little girls at the Amish school) and allow someone like that to acquire a nuke. Then this man decides to go nuts (as he did) and detonate the nuke.
Exhibit "B"- Let's allow civilians to buy nukes so that armed criminals and gangs can break into our homes and take them to hold the city,state,country,or world hostage.
Exhibit"C"- Let's keep nukes in our home so that your kid, instead of accidently shooting him/herself, will detonate a thermo-nuclear device, killing millions of people instantly.
I can see it now..."Hey, wanna check out my dad's nuclear weapon?"
I'm all for gun-rights and owning firearms...but nuclear weapons are a bit extreme. I'm sure the government has a patent for the nuclear weapon, therfore can restrict us from having it anyway. Just like you wouldn't give someone your golf-clubs if you didn't want to.
