        By GOP reasoning, shouldn't nukes be allowed by the 2nd amendment?

        That's not GOP reasoning. It's also not what the 2nd Amendment says.

        2nd amendment specifies "arms", of which nukes are a type.

        Read a book. Read history. Get some education. By definition Nukes are ordinance not arms as defined in the Cindtitution

        Research the topic from a scientific viewpoint. Stats are very clear on this issue.

        Stats have nothing to do with legal definitions. Nukes are defined as ordinance, not arms as defined in the Constitution

        Is that why most cops are pro-gun rights, because you can't be pro-cop and pro -gun?
