Rakhasa Wrote:A full demilitarization is not a good idea anyway; as happened with the Jenga catgirls, the post war period would have left a big percentage of groups unwilling to be unprotected -for good reasons, for paranoia, and for a combination ofthe two. But an alliance where the capacity of violence is on the hands of only a few select factions -and the more paranoid ones of the lot- is a recipe for disaster ont he long range. So the Convention, in the post war years, should have a very high priority on solving this matter. They need to find a balance between the freedons than are the heart of fenspace, the needs for defense, and the needs for a central control of the weapons.
Also we should not forget that the Solar System is still HUGE. If you do not live close to the Fens population centers, help might be hours away.
