[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jubilicious: [QB] I am reminded of the time my mother put a lock on the computer so that we couldn't use it. In three days, we had found a way to pick the lock. Not necessarily because we wanted to use the computer, but simply because we were affronted at my mother's belief that she could keep us out of aything we wanted to play with. I have spent many, many hours creating ways to do things simply because someone told me I couldn't. I'd like to think that our so called rogue countries probably behave the same way. There ARE people out there making armor piercing bullets just because cops have bullet proof vests. If we put up this "sheild", the only thing it's going to do is create a situation in which the countries that hold hostility towards us feel the need to poke holes in it. If they want to nuke us, they are going to find a way. Trust me. Not to mention the fact that some people tend to forget: if we nuke China, for instance, the aftermath of that nuke is GOING to affect us. Or how about this. If anyone at all wants to nuke us, and does, then we have to consider it an act of war. Then what happens? Millions of young men get drafted and packed off to Uzbekistan or wherever. So no matter what, innocent people are going to die. War, Fighting, Weapons, Nukes, and everything else just lead to mass destruction no matter what. Please do not tempt the other countries of the world by telling them we have a "shield" that prevents us from being Nukable. It WILL spur an arms race. Then we'll be back to the Cold War, the Red Scare, and all those Oh-So wonderful times where we all lived in peace and harmony with our bomb sheltars and hard hats. *sigh* Do I know of a single way around anything threatening us? No. But I know that you don't poke a sleeping tiger with a stick simply because you THINK he can't get you. [edited because rouge is something you put on your cheeks and rogue is somethig entirely different] [/QB][/QUOTE]
