It doesn't really matter how many times it has been used... but it has been used. And the aftermath was devastating. Also, we didn't stop with just the size of that bomb, we made ones that are bigger. I've actually learned the the US has a Nuclear Weapon so big that it could tilt the world. Why would we need something that LARGE?

Humans came up with another WMD, back in 2003 or 2004 that had the same kill radius as a Nuke, but no Fallout. For the life of me, I can't remember what this thing is called. Sorry.

Also lets go into NBC... Nuclear, Biological, Chemical. One Word "EVIL". And I know that most of the stuff that I'm getting into really belongs in WAR and only WAR. But the technology is out there and it doesn't.

As humans, over thousands of years we have gotten efficient at killing each other and each time we learn something new, it get much more cruel.

And with extreme paranoia comes violence... in which you could say that TV is at fault for the more violent behavior today.

I'm not saying that our past was all flowers and butterflies. It hasn't. If you believe in some type of religion, there is enough killing there to make you sick. If you don't believe in the bible, there is also just the history of the world... Romans! They were a world power. By no means has this world been a paradise for humans.

I'm not even going to get into some of the stories of pure evil that I have personally experienced. There is a lot of violence in this world, it is being broadcast because that helps the ratings. But I really believe that things are worse in recent history then they have been.

But let me end with this, how many of you guys lock yours doors at night? Or even lock your car door... even if you are in it?
