they did what they had to protect teir country. As for nuclear weapons they are more preventing wars . The treat of nuclear attack has prevented more wars than the damage they could cause for ex: take India - pak stand off post 26/11 it could have turned into a messy war between both countries.
well to me marriage is how u show ur life long commitment and love . Its a promise to forever love and cherish that one person u love. For equality's sake it would be good to hav all the rights straigt people enjoy .but it is not imortant. What is important is are u willing to commit yourself that one person for the rest of your life.
