but how does this tie-in with your general argument concerning advanced weapons? i would suggest that such issues have been a staple of armed conflict since the beginning of time, how does a gun in this instance, change the nature of warfare as to be notable? (asides from where you identified that now it is possible for children to go to war.)
do these new arms make armies behave any differently? i wouldn't have thought so.
the other point to note is that soldiers dont tend to kill people during peace time. ie how many civilians in the US have been shot and killed by your army? clearly a civilian's capacity to use weapons in their neighbourhood is qualitatively different from a soldier in occupied territory.
Did you ever happen to read Remarque's All Quiet On The Western Front? Do you remember the part where they are sitting in the trenches at night, shooting at the dim flickering of cigarettes in the distance as though it were some sort of game?
They were shooting at lights because it was easier than shooting at people - because it was far easier to kill in this way since there was practically no humanity involved.
"Peace time" is the declaration of nations and documents, not battlefields.

that's not a generalisation. most of the people that think that a 'well-regulated militia' (lol) has some role against tyranny, are *shock horror* citizens of the united states of america.
now, i obviously didn't mean that this is what all americans thought, or even most. just that those that DO subscribe to this kind of nonsense, tend to be NRA members with confederate flags in their front yard and barely enough teeth together to form a smile.
now, that's a generalisation.

fuck, you are so stupid.
