GPS and other precision guidance systems do help to save civilian casualties by allowing militaries to use smaller and fewer explosives. The designers of GPS have probably saved more lives than any doctors. I want to live in a world without human violence but creating a world like that doesn’t involve banning technology, it requires political action.

And so do weapons, because they can eliminate the very people who are killing civilians. Machine guns and bombs saved millions more Jews from being killed in WWII
