I had an idea that guns should shoot in both directions when fired, to rid the world of assailants intent on killing another human being. To the public, I still think this an effective method. To military men and women, this is no solution. They fire on orders, they fire on enemies of the state they fire because they have to. I think that for every shot fired on an 'enemy', politicians should be shot. Non-fatal, of course. Just a warning, so these decision makers can truly understand the cost of war.
