James is pretty important to me, you, and probably lots of folks, but I doubt TPTB would be willing to sacrifice the number of people and the profitable infrastructure that would be taken out with a nuke targeted at him personally. That's the problem with WMD's: they are useless against individuals, or small groups because of the collateral damage to all the people TPTB depend on parasitizing for their wealth and power.

This is why soldiers and cops still have guns. That's what's needed to seize individuals and enforce oppressive edicts: armed thugs on the ground. There's much better technology for killing lots of people, but not for dragging one to jail. There's also much better technology (they're not selling at Walmart next to the shotguns) for preventing armed gangs of thugs from oppressing you, but we'll have to make those devices ourselves.

Yay for 3D printers!

Be well.
