Every citizen should hold the right to owning a gladius, maybe even one of those Greek sarissae I keep hearing about. Sure, you and your slaves can't hold off an entire legion, but consider the thousands of escaped slaves, among other impoverished groups, that are known to rob the homes not just of equites and Senators, but even plebeians, regardless of their wealth. Now, we can't just go around handing teli out to everyone, so of course only citizens could own them, but it would make our fair city safer from threats within and without.

On a side note, it should be illegal to carry concealed gladii, especially into public places. Have you seen those rowdy chariot fans? Imagine the drunken fights that would erupt if you armed them all.
