    Weapons can be used for liberation or oppression at the same time. Lockheed doesn’t get to say who they sell to.

      “sometimes they kill the right people, sometimes they don’t, not their fault for producing weapons fully knowing that”

      OK, so your earlier comment was saying they’re good for sending (selling) weapons to Ukraine. Then you say they can’t be held responsible for the bad things. If they can’t be responsible for the bad, then they also don’t get credit for any good.

        That’s fine. They manufacture the top of line defense products. The government decides when they should be used. Those products work and keep Americans safe when used properly. The ethical use of them falls on our elected leaders, which is the way it should be.
