[quote=harvey]Libertarian logic is often so hopelessly shallow.
I don’t understand why private citizens cannot own nuclear weapons.
Why is does the government take away my freedom to own a nuclear weapon?
Of course if someone a nuclear weapon to harm others they should go to jail.
Just because I own one doesn’t make me a criminal.[/quote]
What you wrote is very good, as a joke. Owning nuclear weapons would be criminal because of the risk imposed on your neighbors. Even if you don’t kill anybody, the fact that you put them under such extreme risk, would make them victims. Your example certainly does not apply to prostitution or cocaine trade/use, where there are no victims.
