It not the technology that concerns me, it’s the morality of the people who use it since as a practical matter restricting a certain line of research in one country will not stop it in another. While that's true, you don't stop restricting it because others aren't.
Someone has to stand up for what's right somewhere.

No, anymore than I’d quit locking my door just because others don’t or because even locks can be defeated.
The laws of a people are an codification of their morals so that even if they cannot be enforced with 100% effectiveness they still are valuable.
