Lockheed Martin - An Evil Entity? I think not

Recently, I saw these few Twitter users complaining on how evil Lockheed Martin was for creating weapons used for killing innocent people.

Well, I think that these people should actually stop thinking like a typical stereotype and get out of the box for once. To my every comment was the same reply "Go do some research" and stuff like "Not creating a company that creates killing machines"

First of all, the very first thing needed to be done, is for these people to actually do some research of their and then whine about Lockheed Martin later on. Let me clear the point of "creation of a killing company"

1) First point, Lockheed Martin is a primarily aerospace, security and defense contractor. The fact that it is a military contractor comes in the security and defense phase.

2) They were NEVER created for the destruction of civilians or anything! Lockheed Corp, and Martin Marietta were two different companies. Lockheed started making airplanes, and due to a good contract made airplanes for the US and British Royal Air Force during the World War II, and before. Had you not had them, you would probably having a more wicked world out there; not that it is not wicked atm, but it would be more and more cruel and corrupt.
On the other hand, Martin Marietta was more of a chemical and aerospace company.

So yes, you are dumb (twitter users) and you just ignorantly rant about military without actually reading the history for yourself. You base your arguments on only facts, while not giving 2 cents about the history. Seriously, shame on you.

Alright, so this fact guy says on Twitter:

Lockheed Martin produces $32 billion worth of weapons each year that mainly kill civilians in impoverished nations.
Well, if you base your argument on 1 fact, I could surely share a few of my own. Courtesy Lockheed Martin website (which you never read on the first hand, cause ur naive)


  • $18.5M in charitable giving to the United Way and Charities of Choice campaigns in 2009
  • $2.54M to colleges and universities in 2008 matched by $2.54M from the Lockheed Martin Foundation in 2009
  • $1.09M to the Lockheed Martin Employee Disaster Relief Fund in 2009

Here is a fact for u:
  • Lockheed Martin donates $24 million annually.
50% of which goes to Education, and on other important things! They provide the homeless with shelter, they provide the hungry with food! Not only that, but the company employees nearly 200,000 employees!

So, before actually saying Lockheed Martin is satanic or so. Give the facts a read first, before actually jumping to conclusions.
Remember, Maijuana was created for medical purposes. Just cause some people use it to get high, doesn't mean that the farmers are evil for planting a drug. They planted it so that it could be used as a medicine. Its the user who is at fault. Likewise, Lockheed creates weapons on orders for defense and security.

What happens after that, and how they are used is a different story of a different time line.
