It's still immoral.
- samatman 6y agoWell that's just like, your opinion, man. In a vacuum, with perfectly spherical frictionless humans, sure. In the world we live in, a technology which replaces landmines, and kills fewer noncombatants, is an improvement which results in less civilian death. That's moral in my playbook.
- lambda_obrien 6y agoMoral would be not killing other humans for power, resources, etc. I'm comfortable with my beliefs, and I understand your position as well. I personally understand the need for a military, but there are some weapons I wouldn't have been comfortable using when I was a military officer. Luckily, I have no part in those decisions today and I can share my beliefs without any risk to anyone else, "enemy" or otherwise.
