I am sorry I have often wondered the how one would expect
peace, if one sells guns.
I mean what is the view of peace if every “Super Power”
country buys and then sells weapons to “Third World” countries to use, under
the pretense of “Surplus”, all while buying “New” and “Improved”, then offer
special financing to those same ”Third World” countries due to the cost of the
weaponry.
Arming other countries a policy of defense, but how is that
exactly insuring our defense, the state department, the last few Presidents of
the US have a track history of selling, arming, training, then combating those
we trained.
This policy was born out of the cold war, where fear of the
complete destruction of humanity by humanity was and is the only outcome.
What would our cities look like if they employed the same
policy, how would arming the street gang the “Crips” to fight the street gang
the “Bloods” have worked, how exactly is that going to solve the issue of
gangs.
How does that give you a view of peace, of security, I mean
I am sure there would less of both street gangs as they competed for weapons
intersections and territory, but a wall does not always stop a bullet. It is
that fact they call collateral damage, which is why our cities do not employ
this policy, the cost of one life, an innocent, is too high if a possibility,
besides being ludicrous in concept of law and order a description of the intent
of peace at least.
So how exactly is arming, training, selling and
manufacturing weaponry for others giving us Peace?
Now if we go back to the street gangs, and look when one
receives special training and guns and weaponry, the other goes and finds the
same. WHO would profit off the known outcome of arming street gangs?
How contemptuous, to claim moral of family value, of honor,
to claim pride in achievement at the loss of human life, to claim clear profit
off human demise. If such a concept of arming gang against gang would not be a
policy of any one metropolitan city why then is it a policy of the country that
governs them.
How does this policy provide protection to the other side of
that wall, where a child will fall? How is that a Law which you will follow?
No Child should Die by a Weapon of War.
