I don't recall reading anything from the Revolution where private citizens were keeping cannons, the closest thing to a tank at the time. Cannons were maintained by the local militia group/towns/military forces.
I know this was covered a few pages back.
I get the feeling that the left is just scared of firearms. What is the big deal with law-abiding citizens owning guns? How does a law-abiding citizen owning a gun affect you?

Do you recall reading anything about cannons being illegal to own?
You think the 2nd Amendment means any arms you can carry in your two arms?
Then can I at least have an few RPG's?
Can point out the post where this was covered a few pages back? Not saying it's not there, simply tried of wading through a bunch of snide comments and insults trying to find the posts that actually contain logic and reason.
