Reasonable humans are unquestionably able to solve problems without violence. But sadly power tends to fall into the hands of unreasonable humans. So an Army is vital to the survival of the nation.

Do you remember 911, then how can you say America, does not need an army? Land of the FREE and home of the BRAVE, didn’t get that way, by letting people run over us. America, needs to protect itself for these stupid people, who are jealous of our country……..Yes, we need an army!

Army is related only to war and war is not a natural condition. An ideal world (probably utopia, though) lives without war and therefore needs no army.

Apparently we haven’t learned to settle matters in a civilized way without conflicts and bloodshed.

The only reason an army exists is to declare war on other nations. It is simply not necessary. In the last instance it is used to keep down the masses
