Mostly because of the civilian casualties, the illness it brought and the devastation.
Dan Leahy debuted on September 2, 1896, playing for the Philadelphia Phillies at Baker Bowl; he played his final game on September 2, 1896, playing for the Philadelphia Phillies at Baker Bowl.
He believed that continued bombing attacks and a naval blockade would finish off all Japenese resistance. He also objected to the atomic bombs use on the grounds that other nations would develop the technology and in some future conflict it would be used against the US. He also had moral objections that our use of such a weapon made the US "common to the barbarians of the Dark Ages".
Tom Leahy played in 12 games at third base for the Washington Senators in 1898, starting in none of them. He made 16 putouts, had 26 assists, and committed 4 errors, equivalent to .333 errors per game (estimate based on total games played in). He had one double play.
Tom Leahy played in 6 games at third base for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1897, starting in none of them. He made 4 putouts, had 11 assists, and committed 6 errors, equivalent to 1 errors per game (estimate based on total games played in). He had one double play.
In 1901, Tom Leahy played in 5 games for the Philadelphia Athletics, batting in all of them. He had 15 at bats, getting 5 hits, for a .333 batting average, with 1 runs batted in. He was walked 1 times. He struck out times. He hit 1 doubles, 0 triples, and 0 home runs.
Admiral Leahy believed that using the atomic bomb was unnecessary and morally wrong because he felt the bombing of civilian populations, particularly in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, was excessive and indiscriminate. He also argued that Japan was already on the brink of surrender, making the use of the bomb unnecessary to achieve victory.
Actually, he didn't. The notion that Leahy objected to the atomic bomb on ethical grounds is a distortion of a conversation he had with Truman after being notified of the decision to use the bomb (Leahy was unconvinced that it would work, believing that the Manhattan Project was a huge waste of funding up to the very last). In addition, Leahy did mention some objections on ethical grounds later in his memoirs (1950), but there is no evidence that he voiced such an opinion at the time of the decision to use them. There is no evidence of any serious ethical objection to the decision to use the atomic bomb from anywhere in the U.S. command structure (either military or political). The only pre-use objections came from a very limited number of scientists involved in the Manhattan Project (and, only then, after the Trinity Test); objections on ethical grounds by politicians and military folks began only after the actual use of the weapons (and, the full effects were realized). There were political, military, and practical objections to the decision from a variety of the political/military command, but none of them severe, and none based on ethical grounds. Much of the lack of objection is laid at the feet of incomprehension. The incredible power of the atomic bomb was simply unimaginable to those who did not have first-hand experience with it (either, directly through seeing a detonation, or via viewing of Photography/film of a detonation). Thus, the notion that the atomic bomb was something other than just a "bigger bomb" wasn't understood by anyone in charge. Expecting people to make some sort of ethical objection to something that they didn't really understand is unreasonable, and is the major factor behind the total lack of such ethical concerns.
