    Unions and Blue-Collar Workers

    Having studied many different economic philosophies, I have always been a strong free market capitalist. I enjoyed reading about Mises, Friedman, and Hayek and always pushed to support anything to free up the economy. I was fortunate to find a decent career after college working for a mechanics...

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    Why are you in my thread? It's called having a discussion. You are not a very good libertarian when you want people to leave who have different views. One of the effects of a free society is that not everyone is going to agree.

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    You call me to be rational and more adult with a comment like that? The credibility fail lies with you. I don't take you seriously at all. How old are you, 12?

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    I don't agree. Opponents of the second amendment would try to argue that it was intended to only arm the militia.

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    In the days of the founders there were local armories. If this armory is to be guarded by a police force or a militia I do not care. If there is a need to fight the government then citizens will have access to heavy equipment through the armories. It is inevitable that many towns would open up...

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    I have no idea what you are talking about. I am not angry about anything. If everyone is going to ignore my question of whether it is a grave matter of concern when a citizen is carrying a weapon that is not simply for self-defense, but has the potential for serious destruction, then this...

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    I am all for governments not having nuclear bombs. In the world we live in I do not see that happening. Why endanger our society any more by allowing more people to have access to nuclear bombs? Unlike guns, that can be used for good, there is nothing good at all nukes can be used for. Nobody...

    Really? Grenades cannot kill a lot of people? Interesting....

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    Suddenly I think the government should do anything it wants because I don't think people should own bombs or machine guns? What's wrong with just carrying firearms for protection?

    So I can possess mustard gas and perhaps a nuclear bomb? I have a right to possess them.

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    I know the purpose of the second amendment. Saying that historically people usually use guns in a mall does not address the possibility about the dangers of allowing heavy weaponry in public. The days of carrying swords around were wonderful because you can kill a criminal, the days of the...

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    Grenades can kill a large number of people and when tossed in a public area can cause a lot of deaths. A gun can quickly shoot down a person that needs to be shot without incurring the loss of innocents. Are you telling me that something like a grenade launcher or a flame thrower is just about...

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    Well I would rather be called an anarchist then a troll for asking a decent question. It seems that many on this board don't seem to want the police or military to do anything. I am trying to understand why we need a police force or a military if we don't believe they should have certain powers...

    Does the second amendment apply to machine guns, grenades, and other heavy equipment?

    With guns and rifles I see no problem in private citizens carrying those and owning them. What I am concerned about is again anybody, private citizen or policeman, walking around strapped in grenades or carrying a rocket launcher outside city hall. Do you feel concerned about that scenario? If...
