So, as some of you may know, I am an engineering student. I study to be able to create things from which mankind can benefit. At least, I like to think that this is the case. Evidently some people do not agree with me, otherwise the weapons industry wouldn't exist. However, I was shocked to hear how many people wouldn't think twice about working in the weapons industry. The reason this shocked me was that you know for what your creations will be used, namely threatening and killing people.

So now my question. Assume you have the know how to work in the weapons industry, would you? And why?
