Is it WRONG to own guns, rifles, swords, knives, etc.?

It's not "paranoid behavior" so much as it is not being overly egotistical and acknowledging the facts. I don't see myself as some sort of cosmic miracle that the universe revolves around, I don't watch ER and say "that can never happen to me", because I am down to earth enough not to try and make myself an exception, what can happen to one person can just as easily happen to me.
Problem is, people like you are so full of themselves that you CAN'T believe your not some cosmic miracle that the universe revolves around, you ARE one of those people that watch ER and tells yourself the same thing can never happen to you.
No amount of proof is going to open your mind, you don't care about the truth, you only care about your little security blanket delusion that you live in. You try to live in a make believe world where everything is sunshine and lolly pops, go ahead but don't argue about the real world with me, just stay inside your little fantasy and wrap up tight in your little security banket, forget the real world even exists, and just leave us alone.

What facts? Where? I don't see any facts that you've quoted. All I see are some misguided and drunken ramblings about why a bunch of civilians would want to own guns in a civilized society where every indication points to it being not only dangerous but futile as well. You have a police force to fight crime, do you not? You are not a bunch of vigilantes fighting the wild west because someone stole some of your cattle and made off with your crops. If you had nukes or tanks as my good British friend said, your army would still roll right over the top of you and leave you in a bloody flattened heap. Your law is antiquated and was written for a time when you may have needed to fight battles etc, but TIMES HAVE CHANGED and like it or not, CIVILIZATION does not carry on like it did back then. If you cannot open your eyes and realise this, then whetever deity help you ***IF*** your government does decide to go for you (not that they care about your pissy little ass), because all your right wing crap about stopping them isn't going to mean Jack. You would more than likely be the guy trying to climb the tank in Tienanmen Square, and what a f*****g futile waste of time that was. Now grow up, and stop making a fool out of yourself.

One problem I see here is when it comes to aspies and their obsessions, when the obsession is fire arms, that worries me. There must be ways to handle that I suppose to avoid potential problems in this case. That is one of many other reasons I am not pleased with the idea of anyone having the "right" to own a gun.

I don't care for the whole violence-against-government bit, but that is not the point. It's not always a necessity to carry a weapon, most of the time it isn't, but there are times when it's better to be safe than sorry. America has given its people the right to own them and use them in designated areas or for self-defense. Is it right for rights to be taken away from the people?

Self defense is a pretty crappy excuse.
The amendment is there so that the people
have some way to resist oppression.

And, without allowing communities to buy
the best military hardware (up to nukes)
it just isn't going to work.

Yeah, I know your right.... It just pisses me off when they resort to making accusations against me and calling me names because they can't put up a logical argument.

See, that's the ability of being an individual, your not emotionally attached to someone else's ideas, your willing to analyze and accept facts as an individual without these stupid labels getting in the way and clouding your judgement.
