I have the utmost respect for military power. My best friend works for a weapons lab. I have these types of discussions all the time - I don't personally want to do it, but I don't mind (a lot) that he does. I have tough questions for him on moral grounds like 'how do you know the people you make this stuff for will use it right'.

I'm "cosmicforce" on the Internet and I would like to be all sweetness and light like Buddha, but silent strength seems to prevail. You wouldn't pick me out of a crowd and say, that HAS to be cosmicforce (sorry to dispell all those stereotypes).

How many liberals do you know who used to sport shoot and have a .44 Desert Eagle? By Israeli Military Arms, Inc. and NOT the namby-pamby "Magnum Research". Indeed!

It is a mighty responsibility. And it makes me sick when people when talk about weilding power without conscience.
