The armed forces have publicly demonstrated their disregard for human

There has never been a military in the entire history of this planet which
has had more destructive power and shown more of a desire to NOT use it than
the military forces of the United States.

Good point. Still, to be fair to Larry, but not to put words in his
mouth, I think he just meant that people in power have demonstrated
their disregard for our military. Certainly our own military leaders
do what they can to avoid unnecessary warfare or experiments. It's
usually the civilian leaders who have less regard for (knowledge of?)
the consequences.
