[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tahna Los: [QB] Omega: I was referring to the quote- [i]They can be turned into such with minimal effort.[/i] Do you dispute the idea that the Military can be a symptom of Authoritarian Thinking? Hitler had his SS, Pinochet had his Caravan of Death. Etcetera. My point? If you want to refer to the idea of the HRC as a symptom of authoritarian thinking, fine. I will push to you the idea that the military is also a symptom of authoritarian thinking, and is more likely to be as such than the HRC which, compared to the military, has very little power. You have a hijacked jet with terrorists on board. The Military now has the authority to shoot down that jet if is poses a threat to a populated area. Okay, so you're protecting a populated area, but the killing of innocent people by the military is itself pretty damn authoritarian if you ask me (assuming no threat to a populated area is possible). And it robs the innocent people of their right to private property, that is, their lives. Please tell me how you would explain this. I have much more to challenge you, Omega. I'll be posting later.
