Does the 2nd amendment give me the right to keep and maintain battlefield nuclear weapons?

It would depend on the yield. It's hard to imagine the US Supreme Court having a problem with American citizens at least keeping small explosives.

After all, if law-abiding Americans can't keep their own bombs, then they are vulnerable to criminals with black market bombs. What hope does a family armed with mere AK-47s have against criminals that can send bombs into their property?

If you deny people the right to keep bombs then you are just rewarding criminals!

Actually, I think ordinary families in Ukraine could do with their own bombs right now. And rocket launchers.

Sadly the British government is wasting tax payers' money to supply them with bombs, to prolong a war they cannot win, and to keep arms manufacturers very happy.
It's one thing for Boris and his friends in the arms industry to loot the public purse, but I think your comments are off the chart.

I don't agree with any of that, but you are entitled to your opinion.

I have not expressed ANY opinion.
I expressed facts about the situation.
