Demonstrate the need to own LEGO, then. What a silly question.
No one should have to demonstrate needs here. We're talking about
acquisition of property. If I have the resources, and the acquisition of
property per se does not infringe the rights of others, it is my right
to acquire it.
However, I'll do it anyway. The reason is defense. Defense against those
that would initiate the use of force against me, be they criminals of
the individual kind or criminals of the statist kind.
The founding fathers put the wording they used into the 2nd amendment
for a reason. Look up the meaning of militia as it was meant in 1790. An
armed population is a civil population and is the final check.
