I think the story could be told, with the final sentence containing, "and

it
was a very bad thing". I think we can all agree that the millions killed

in
WWII was all a bad thing.


Jesus no John...can you just imagine...everything used in warfare
with that stupid tagline on it? "So folks here's an example of a
musket used in ancient wars. It was much more lethal than the
clubs and spears used up till then. It could actually kill a man
at 100 feet every 1.5 minutes!, and it was a very bad
thing"...good God.


The musket has other uses that are a good thing. The nuke only does things
we would as soon not do.

Just put the Enola Gay in there with a sign indicating that it
was a technological leap both in aircraft and armament design. It
was used to drop the first of two atomic bombs which ended WW2


Havn't we already tried that?
