An end to war on earth

[supersech]

We watched the first 8 of 10 episodes of Band of Brothers yesterday. If you haven't seen them, they are truly excellent and definitely worthy of watching. They also reminded me of what a rotten deal war really is, so I have created a plan that will end all war on earth within my lifetime

Smashy Robot Question #1

[_evil_clarence_]

An intriguing idea. I have a question about implementation of your plan. What part of of the government should have the access codes to deploy the army of smashy robots? Does any one person have access to the 'red button of deployment'? Does that responsibility fall on me as the first person who called 'dibs'?

Deploying robots will be a serious issue requiring the invading country to follow a strict and detailed protocol matrix with disputes resolved by a U.N. General Assembly. However, if it's button-pushing you want, think of this: each of these robots will be operated by a remote control tied to a home game consol here on earth. This means that all soldiers will recieve intensive videogame training and in times when a draft is necessary every able-bodied citizen will be required to hop on their xboxes and go blow stuff up on mars. I expect drafts will happen just about every weekend.
