Tell ya what - I'd love to have that discussion as soon as body cavity
searches becomes germane to the discussion...Till then, yer grabbing at
(nonexistent) straws.

OBTW - if you're all about empowering citizens to one day rise up agin the
gubment, then you would be better served to argue that Cletus should be able
to build a nuke in his back yard if he wants to....there's a specific
constitutional protection for citizens to keep and bear arms isn't there?
The government limits that to non-assault weapons...but keeps assault
weapons for itself doesn't it?
