why would I need a hunting rifle when the 2nd Amendment has nothing to do with hunting at all?

Nowadays, you can change that moto, for most NH residents, to mean:
"Live for free, and then just die"

What are you trying to say? Outside of the southern border towns NH is as free & open minded as ever. MA is a cancer in New England and everything near it is susceptible to its corrupting influence.

I truthfully believe that whatever weapon the goverment is allowed to bear/own/use, the people/individual citizen should also be allowed to bear/own/use as well.

I think the quote was a satirical comment I picked up from a NH resident, commenting more on the northeast liberal tax and entitlement culture ("live for free") than anything else. Agree however, my company has offices in Andover, right at the border, and it's essentially just a suburb of Boston.

If you can afford it why not? I know guys with fighter planes and tanks, half-tracks etc. Not just old stuff either. BMP's, BRDM's, Bradly fight vehicals etc. etc. I myself have full auto weapons....Cost an arm and a leg but it keeps me out of the bars!!!

Most anything they can house or keep in a safe. Stop looking to restrict!

If I want John Dillinger's Tommy or ANY OTHER artifact, it shouldn't be unavailable to me if I have enough money. With all the talks of destroying firearms of American history, it worries me that thing will end up in a meltpot someday! I'd keep her real safe FOREVER and the life of any and all of my surviving family. If you're gonna me stupid Mr. G-O-V-T....we're takin' it away from ya and keeping it safe. If you guys knew how many brand new M14s, M1 Garands and M1 carbines the Clinton Administration destroyed, you'd puke! Those were BRAND NEW in the wrap and grease rifles never issued in WWII, Korea. You dumb b$%@&%!!
