Election 2024

The use of nuclear weapons, I assume for war...would be covered by International law for warfare....If they would be misused that would most likely be illegal

Interesting that your reply with a sound logical challenge gets immediate likes from all the others that got lost in this conversation....they are hiding behind your skirt:D

Why war? Why can’t I have a nuclear weapon as long as I pinky promise not to misuse it?
 
Fetus has rights but the children being bombed in refugee camps don't?
Yes they have rights.
The official Government of Gaza is responsible that they don't break laws of warfare by reasonable protecting the citizens.
For example thy could have brought all the children into the tunnels or ask the UN to help move them south or not shot missiles from their grade schools playgrounds

Civilians are protected against direct attack unless, and for such time, as they directly participate in hostilities. Parties to an armed conflict must take all feasible precautions in determining whether a person is a civilian and, if that is the case, whether he or she is directly participating in hostilities

Its against US law
It shall be unlawful, except as provided in section 2121 of this title, for any person, inside or outside of the United States, to knowingly participate in the development of, manufacture, produce, transfer, acquire, receive, possess, import, export, or use, or possess and threaten to use, any atomic weapon.

Its also legal for a country to have a atomic bomb, like North Korea and Israel
Its illegal for Iran because they are part of the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT)

But if it wasn’t against the law to own a personal nuclear device would that make it okay? Would you be for it? Or might you wish that the law be changed to disallow it?
That would be a reckless law
Laws are collectively made to protect society and especially the people in society.
Laws are a way to allow us to limit some individual rights because they interfere with the rights of others
To have a drum of enriched uranium in your basement is a hazard to you and others

Ah ha, so you support limitations on arms unless they are assault weapons?

First there would need to be a definition of "assault weapon"
Currently automatic rifles are illegal. I agree
I think the Supreme court has done a pretty good job limiting individual rights for weapons
