If it became necessary. In other words, as a last resort. If we were to be fired upon first. If we were to be attacked in like fashion, and had no choice but to defend ourselves. Otherwise, no. It would probably mean the end of mankind if it were to ever happen. Once it starts, there would be no stopping until mankind was erased from the face of the Earth. It would contaminate food, water, land, air, and cause a thousand years of health issues. No one would escape. It would be total devastation. No winners, everyone would lose. But, in my opinion, sooner or later, some nut is going to hit the button. We have a lot of crazy people in this world, and some hold very high positions in world governments.
