Anything that is not restricted by the laws of physics should be legal.
Now THOSE are some laws. Not these shitty wannabe legal constructs.

Actually I think the laws of physics seem to be only suggestions. Thank Heisenberg for that.

Dynamite has a great deal of non-violent purposes.
The fact that Loughner had an extended magazine doesn't really scare me. Any dipshit could weld two clips together and add in a custom spring if they weren't available. No law would be able to prevent that short of banning guns altogether.

And banning guns altogether would only stop law abiding, sane people from purchasing weapons while criminals, who make a living from disobeying laws, still manage to get their hands on them.
So entertaining the idea of gun bans is foolish, if that's what the OP is getting at.

I am in no way advocating the banning of guns. Since we do ban people from owning nukes, though, my question is where should we draw the line?

Heres the lines:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long guns Handguns State Permit to Purchase? No No Firearm registration? No No "Assault weapon" law? No No Owner license required? No No Carry permits issued? No Yes NFA weapons restricted? No No Peaceable Journey laws? Yes Yes Castle Doctrine? Yes Yes
For ATF Class 3 Fire Arms (short-barreled shotguns, short-barreled rifles, silencers, automatic weapons) there is a $200 one-time tax referred to as a "Transfer Tax", which includes an FBI background check. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Owning guns keeps a free society free. Do you think some evil dictator has any chance of enslaving the American people? We are a 100 million strong armed militia. In the world we live in, I feel safer having guns in the hands of regular people. What is truly scary is that governments have all the nukes!

No fucking way. Neither China nor America could walk over each other other. A land invasion of either continent right now would be insane. As for nuclear weapons, annihilating each other from afar sure as hell isn't anybody winning.

china has a large army in addition to their nuclear arsenal but gun ownership by civilians has been outlawed, in the US we have private gun ownership effectively making a militia force of around 250,000,000 people

I don't want to rain on your parade but 90%, at least, of that 250M people are completely useless as an armed force.

That's 25,000,000 people who know how to fire a gun.
More than the first American Revolution.
