| Message | If we are hit by a WMD we should have the right to make them and shoot them back. And no he is not a hippie he just wants to have peace in this world and no one should be criticized for that... Only problem is Peace can never be so.... So instead of bashing your political enemies with insults why don't you try to express your point of view... |

| Message | I have, repeatedly. Indeed, the reason the RDS' bills attract no debate is because they have heard the arguments many times before. But for your benefit, I shall repeat: *Too many nations with nukes *MAD keeps us safe *MAD requires nukes *Thus to be safe we require nukes There is a layer of safeguards over the top of that. Primarily (and traditionally), Baltusia only maintains the right to nuclear weapons but does not actually manufacture them until the Praetor and/or legislature orders their construction which, by law, can only come about after we have been attacked by a nuclear, chemical or biological weapon. |
