My point was that it's not a good thing that we have to have armed forces. Unfortunately, the world isn't one big happy family yet so we're stuck with them until then; however, we have them like we have prisons. It's a relief that they are able to protect us, but we should try to avoid using them unless inaction would be even costlier.
Ok spock.
Now
that's something that I can be proud of.
