I could not have said it better myself! How can you justify a President who's mindset is "the bomb was a weapon, and weapons are meant to be used". This kind of mindset can only come from a man that has no heart! Indeed it was new technology and because of this, many scientist that worked on the bomb urged the President to do a practice round, so that they would know the outcomes of it. But did he listen? No! He did not listen and he went about his way because he was in a hurry to use the weapon that was "made to use". The US indeed demanded a unconditional surrender and this is just outrageous! Because of a minor detail, some Japanese were murdered! This could have been avoided and no one on this planet should have the ability to go about something like this! President Truman should have been stopped!

Nobody wants to use it???! Have you been watching the news for the past couple of years? If we think that nobody wants to use it, then why are we so scared of the fact that Iran has nuclear weapons? There is no calmness to this because it has happened in the past and America has demonstrated this by the wrong doing of President Truman! Remember that if the lesson is not learned, then history repeats itself!

Although you made some interesting points I still disagree completely! We wanted justice and an end to the war! Is that not all that we wanted? YES! It was all we wanted, to end WWII! There is evidence that the Japanese were ready to surrender but the President did not accept their surrender because it was not "unconditional" enough for him. To me that does not sound like a President that only wants to end the war and keep his country and countrymen out of harms way. This to me sounds like a President that wanted more than to just end the war! He brought upon misery that was of no need! This event did not have to happen and this injustice has put a scare to the whole world! This issue has sustained itself to present day and we fear that some country's will do the injustice that President Truman has done. NOTHING justifies injustice!

The usage of the atomic bomb on Japan or even the usage of the atomic bomb is not justified and in my opinion it will never be justified! So many innocent people died because of the atomic bombs that where dropped on the Japanese cities. To think that those people were just going on about their day, with their families and loves ones, and within seconds, everything was gone and they were destroyed! There is just no justice to that at all. It was not even a necessity because Japan was ready to surrender on the condition that their Emperor Hirohito could keep his spot on the throne. President Truman did not think that this surrender was unconditional, so he decided to kill innocent people whom government was going to be of no harm anymore. It was a very bad decision and it started a terrible trend among countries, and now we have many countries with the ability to do what we did to Japan. This is a very scary thought to endure!

These points are very valid, the fact of the matter remains that the blood that was sacrificed for the original document was the reason for their departure. It is in some ways even a disrespect to those who died for the constitution to be placed in the original form. Had those who sacrificed so much for that document known that one day it would be modified i doubt they would have fulfilled their destiny. This is injustice to our forefathers!

The Constitution should have been ratified, and the reason being was that the intention was for the Constitution to be assembled and also have the bill of rights fully intact. Obviously, the intentions were good and had the American people stand up for the Constitution. There is no need for a debate, it is the American people responsibility to maintain their rights and keep their government in check, if the government crosses the line. The Constitution was not designed to create a massive government to dictate the lives of Americans. If Americans feel that this is because of the Constitution it is not. In fact, the Constitution is the main protector of the rights that each person has. Ratification is the way to go!
