"When Tehran announced in February last year that it had successfully test-fired a laser-guided surface-to-surface and air-to-surface missile and a long-range ballistic missile capable of carrying multiple warheads, the Pentagon spokesman at the time, Adm. John Kirby, described the missile program as "a dangerous threat to the region."'

So why is Iran allowed to have this kind of stuff and you are ok with it but you want to see guns taken away from law abiding american citizens?

Yeah, Iran's a military is a threat to Saudi Arabia and possibly Israel. This has been so for years and years, unless you think Iran just recently and because of the nuclear-deal magically acquired a military/weapons?
Does it shock you that besides missiles, they have a strong army with tanks and *gasp* planes?
As soon as it comes to Iran its all about protecting them and being able to protect themselves. Even if it means having nukes. But when it comes to American citizens protecting themselfs, they want our guns taken away.
These people are Anti-Americans and anti-constitution.

This was known before Obama made the deal.
Missiles>tanks

They already had missiles capable of reaching Israel though, for a long time now, the only new change is that apparently they have new missiles that can hit specific targets in Israel...but as I said that wouldn't have any significance on a nuclear arsenal as you don't need precision for nukes.

Regardless, these missiles are not part of the nuclear deal, no matter how you try to spin it. The deal is Iran not acquiring nukes, nothing about them giving up their military, missiles, tanks, planes, subs etc., while bending over and spreading cheeks.
Yes, clearly with your immediate comment to OV about "ignorance" when confronted about Iran's conventional military having nothing to do with the nuclear deal and then the supposed "downplaying" of these missiles.
So then, what's your issue with Iran having missiles?
