Did I say we should do that? No? Try to keep up.
My mistake. It was Ethereal who said get rid of nukes. My apologies.

Yeah, let's get rid of our nuclear weapons and hope all 500 countries in the world have the integrity to do the same. That will make us safer.
Good lord.
Like....they wouldn't dream of doing that to the U.S. because we'd incinerate them within the hour. And if it weren't for the U.S. and its nukes, Georgia wouldn't exist, nor would Israel.
Here...hold on to this pile of "I really dont care" until it soaks iin really good...I'm only going to post this once, since talking with you is always like talking to a brick wall, and frankly I'd much rather discuss the issue with Ethereal than with you (which is why my comment was addressed to him and not you).
I'll stop you right there.This really boils down to game theory, so let's make a list of the rules for nuclear deterrence...

You're deliberately setting up the parameters of you premise so that they support your conclusion -- otherwise known as a strawman.
Nice try. Do better next time.
Yeah just like no one would fly airplanes into buildings or blow them selves up. Because they'd be incinerated within a second.
You can't say "terrorists will do anything to kill us" and then tell me you enjoy the proliferation of nuclear weapons. Holy Christ almighty help me through the day.
And living in a house filled with gas probably makes people more careful about starting fires. Just the same, I'd rather live in a house that is NOT filled with gas.
