Libertarians say they are anti regulation, but I ask them if I can murder them to steal their property. Apparently they are all in favor of that regulation. Similar to anti gun control people. Ok, I'm your neighbor, can I arm myself with chemical and biological weapons? Or a conventional bomb that will definitely destroy the entire block? Hm, funny, they are in favor of some gun control.

If you want to be literalist as to the actual arms of the second amendment, then nobody should be armed with anything but a breech loading musket.
