Passing up on a technology like this is suicidal. Someone else will make it and you won't have it and voila, you lose. The arms race has been going since the beginning of time and will go until the end. I'm sure some guy said that he hated humans when the crossbow was invented, or the musket, or the machine gun. We're still here, we're still making better ways to kill people and nothing is going to change. Unless, of course, Brave New World is your cup of tea.
However, if you've lost all hope in humanity, go read Cat's Cradle and think of how well we have it off with only atomic weapons. Or is there really more...:shuriken:
