Better to put them on show than put them to use, but also yes there's something vulgar in celebrating weapons.

Fine weapons of war augur evil.
Even things seem to hate them.
Therefore, a man of Tao does not set his heart upon them.

"A man of violence will come to a violent end."
Whoever said this can be my teacher and my father.
