Should biological warfare ever be used?
Biological warfare (BW)—also known as germ warfare—is the use of biological toxins or infectious agents such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi with intent to kill or incapacitate humans, animals or plants as an act of war. Biological weapons (often termed "bio-weapons", "biological threat agents", or "bio-agents") are living organisms or replicating entities (viruses, which are not universally considered "alive") that reproduce or replicate within their host victims. Entomological (insect) warfare is also considered a type of biological weapon. - Wikipedia

No no no no no! First off I think it's inhumane. Secondly it's not a clean weapon. What I mean is a gun kills the person it's intended to kill and then it's done. A bio weapon can't be controlled. It could kill thousands and when the enemy country surrenders or requests peace talks it will continue to kill. And it could easily spread to surrounding areas that are not the target and maybe even to allied nations or back to the nation who fired the weapon in the first place. This spread would cause severe backlash resulting in more war. It's a bad fucking idea Side: No

First off I think it's inhumane. Explain. A bio weapon can't be controlled. It could kill thousands and when the enemy country surrenders or requests peace talks it will continue to kill. I bioweapon can be controlled. It is supposed to kill or hurt the enemy. It's not supposed to be taken back. That is beauty of war. This spread would cause severe backlash resulting in more war. Is that bad? Side: Yes
