Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutly. The issue is not do we stop development of technology. The issue is can we afford to allow someone else to have the technology in stead of us? Will we use it against our self? Yes. should we? Yes . The national guard can be used to put down riots domesticly. The question is do you want them doing it with leathal weapons, or with less than leathal weapons? This is an option that we need to have. Termoil is certain in our future. do we want to end up like the middle east?
What you are forgetting is this is a option other than lethal force. No more no less. It is a piece of machinery. The evil is not in the machine, it is and or will be in the use of the machine. I would perfur a bruning sensation to a bullet any day! U? The key here is to make sure the people in control of this country have an agenda that is consistant with that of the population. 2B>=Vote!
