他们和爱因斯坦一样,因自己的发明而后悔

Colleen Kane 2015-04-18
今天是爱因斯坦逝世60周年纪念日,他曾建议美国制造原子弹,但后来将此视为一生中最大的错误。像他一样,还有很多创造性的天才为自己的“杰作”而后悔。比如AK47之父,还有弹出式广告和办公隔间的发明者。

    8.胡椒喷雾剂

    上世纪80年代,卡姆兰•洛曼为美国FBI研制出武器级胡椒喷雾剂。2011年,洛曼在《今日民主》节目接受艾米•古德曼采访时,表达了他对执法部门使用胡椒喷雾对付和平示威者的震惊。他提到了加州大学戴维斯分校以及纽约和西雅图等地的“占领华尔街”活动:“我看到了那个情景,我首先想到的并不是警察或学生,而是我自己的孩子坐在那里,想表达一种理念,却被化学制剂袭击和驱赶……我觉得作为公民,我有义务向公众解释,这并不是胡椒喷雾剂被开发出来的本意。”

    8.Pepper Spray

    Kamran Loghman was a developer for weapons-grade pepper spray for the FBI in the 1980s. In 2011, speaking with Amy Goodman on Democracy Now!, Loghman expressed his shock at law enforcement’s use of pepper spray on peaceful protesters. He cited the Occupy Wall Street demonstrations at UC Davis, in New York City, and Seattle. “I saw it, and the first thing that came to my mind wasn’t police or students, was my own children sitting down, having an opinion, and their being shot and forced by chemical agents...I feel it’s my civic duty to explain to the public that this is not what pepper spray was developed for.”
