It is perfectly consistent for example to believe that it is OK to have a military, but not to do any R&D in the private sector. That is what this guy is advocating.
- mercutio2 8y agoEdit: first comment was applied on the wrong thread, oops! I agree that engineering lethal tools only by people directly employed by the military is one possible way to make this argument internally consistent. Another way is to just decide that non-lethal force is a useful and legitimate tool for the military.
