  response to  Justin Gabbard and Doug Brooks's post Ruthless Humanitarianism

  Slippery slope arguments

  The arguments against Justin's premise all feel kinda slippery slope - presenting risks but without factoring in how great or small these risks are and weighing that against the inevitable result on inaction. Blackwater already exists, pre-meditated war already exists, genocide, dictatorships and mercenaries already exist. Putting a private military to use to support a collective agreement among some quorum of nations is at least worth considering.

  whether or not these risks are great or small and what in action will certainly turn out.
