    In a dark irony a couple times that people have invented faster shooting guns they’ve imagined that we’d field less soldiers in war. Leading to less deaths.

    On your nuke comparison I see an interesting parallel to the Giradoni posted today. It enabled Lewis and Clark to cross America without major bloodshed. But an inequality in capacity to destroy isn’t all ways something harnessed with virtue.
