Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - wow, check out this article from a greenpeace guy (pro gun attitude emerging?)
Posted: 4/18/2006 4:51:07 AM EDT

It's about nuclear energy, but about 3/4 of the way through he makes this point:

Nuclear fuel can be diverted to make nuclear weapons. This is the most serious issue associated with nuclear energy and the most difficult to address, as the example of Iran shows. But just because nuclear technology can be put to evil purposes is not an argument to ban its use.

Over the past 20 years, one of the simplest tools -- the machete -- has been used to kill more than a million people in Africa, far more than were killed in the Hiroshima and Nagasaki nuclear bombings combined. What are car bombs made of? Diesel oil, fertilizer and cars. If we banned everything that can be used to kill people, we would never have harnessed fire.


hmmmmmmm......
