The Pentagon 'needs' it because they know we ignorant, apathetic taxpayers will give it to them. Thomas Jefferson once said: "The tree of of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
That time is way over due.
Benjamin Franklin once said: "When government fears the people, it is liberty. When people fear the government, it is tyranny."
We are constitutionally allowed to bear arms against an oppressive and tyrannical government, but instead we lounge around like lobsters in a pot of lukewarm water. Only when the water begins to boil will we start screaming in agony over our own apathy. Then it will be too late. -RKO-
