[Born to Conserve]

What happened to the Prime Directive? We should never have interfered with the africans. Their population would not have exploded without our medical technology. They would not have guns. They would not have transportation or communications. They would just be happilly killing each other the way they were for the 50,000 years before we showed up. Let nature take its course.

"They would not have guns."

What difference would that make?
