Comment !realistic (Score 1) 2549
A position without intelligence; it is simply far too unrealistic and invents an uberstrict morality which cannot function within this universe.
Death is the natural result of a number of things... war only being the most obvious. Budget cuts. HMO policies. Vehicles. I hope you don't have a driver's license and a car, or else you're being a hypocrite!
You name it, death can result from all sorts of policies and actions by government or other groups. Death happens. To mandate zero casualties as a consequence of anything we do will simply paralyze us.
Go ahead and be paralyzed if you desire. Might as well lie down and die. In the mean time, the Armed Forces are protecting you, your way of life (even though you object to and likely hate them) and even your freedom to spout such rediculous and unrealistic ideas which completely ignore the facts of the matter and the gaping differences in intent and action between "us" and "them".
