"They chose atomic bombs. This sent a message to Russia...fine...but what if these were your kids dying for absolutely nothing"

YOU: "I'd hate to know what you consider something"

Perhaps I was unclear? Naturally I refer only to the infants still suckling. I am not so foolish as to disagree with your astute suggestion that the frying of larger tots indeed served a noble and endearing purpose. Once they are able to walk...a bullet is simply a waste.

It would, of course, be absurd for me to suggest that the deaths of those whom had develped rudimentary words such as "mama", were less than meaningful, or to ignore the degree to which our humanity is more universally applauded by the manner of their dispatch.

I should have made it clear that I was only referring to babies beneath 20 pounds as having contributed little by way of their deaths. Thank you for catching the error...
