Heh.  Every other country feels the same way, I'm
sure.  As long as *you're* the only one with a
gun (sword, WMD, etc.) you're going to feel fine.

I can see two viable options: give everyone one (and
wouldn't it be great to have your own nuclear weapon?;)
or get rid of them all.

As a member of the one country which has used nuclear
weapons on another, I don't trust us or anyone who has
them.  

(As a side note, can anyone here think of a tyrant
who did *not* believe they were in the right, and doing
what's best for "their people"?  I can't.)
