Re: Gun freedom advocates - what weapons shouldn't be legally available?

Oh, so close! Tell me, who starts the companies that start the companies that start the companies...?

And certainly subsidiaries aren't the only way that companies get started, are they?

And who runs those companies?

If this is how you are going to use logic then we are not actually debating anything of substance and if you are truly support nuclear weapons in the hands of the private citizens then you are mentally unstable...

My point is that you were advocating the same thing:

Maybe an asteroid mining company with very stringent rules and regulations.

Mining companies are comprised of, and run by, private citizens. Or does the collectivization turn them into something else?

A company heavily regulated for their access to use nuclear weapons is far and away a different thing than a private citizen. You know that so I don't understand why you even bringing this point up?

So your contention is that the collectivization does turn a group of private citizens into something else entirely, simply by one of those citizens signing some papers.

Do companies never have disgruntled employees? Do these employees never have access to sensitive materials? What additional protection do you see from allowing a collected group of citizens to own and use nukes, as opposed to single citizens? What about small businesses, just a single person?

PRIVATE CITIZENS SHOULD NOT HAVE ACCESS TO NUCLEAR WEAPONS [Full Stop]

As for this disgruntled employee. Obviously you have not researched into our current safeguard, I'll tell you how we stop that. They get their nuke into space to the asteroid it it only gets armed once it is very close to its target, armed not by the company and control of the nuke would be in the government that regulates this activity. They would of also submitted a plan on the project and where impact was needed so there would be some sudden change at the last second by the government that would jeopardize their investments and capital.
