Hi Mack,

I was now watching your show and I have to say that I see a bit of a problem here. This is a weapons show but you show a bit too much enthusiasm over killing technology.
I know that one purpose of this show is to show how powerful guns you guys have, and you think that people will get scared of it. But it rarely helps. USA if fighting their wars on other people's soil, and to be honest the fact how big your gun is doesn't change a thing. When you are in my country and if we are on another side of the barrel I have no option but to fight back.
I come from Croatia and we had a pretty bad war going on 15 years ago and I was fighting in it. What I'm trying to say is that we were attacked by much better equipped army but we still fought back. And won. It was never about the size or strength of a gun. It was about surviving and fighting for our cause.
Second point is that your enthusiasm over killing devices is really disturbing. What would you say if there is a show demonstrating new, more efficient electric chairs? Or gas chambers? Or torturing devices? Where would be the border between those shows and the one you are hosting.
Third point is that more weapons doesn't make our world a safer place. You can see that by the number of wars and conflicts going on. Producing more and better guns will never help. well, at least it won?t help humanity. Even if they kill faster.
And terrorists do get all the weapons in their hands sooner or later. How happy would you feel if your fellow soldier, brother or son gets killed by one of the weapons that you so emotionally presented. I know I wouldn't.
Wish you all the luck, health and happiness.

B
