Well, things are getting hotter and hotter by the minute. I'm wondering what's going to happen here, and who backs down first, if at all. I can't see us not flying planes near them, but I'm not sure Un will be stupid enough to shoot one down.

Like they say in the movies "Hold on to your butts." I think it's going to get interesting....

Why we dropped more than that in Nevada and the South Pacific.

I know that there's been quite a bit of thyroid cancer here in the NW that's been attributed to the fallout from those weapons. What I've learned over the years is that no one wins with radiation. It really sucks.

Have you read the article? Then have you read the thread? :bang:

 

[ALACOWMAN]

Yep.....nothing against either. But I'll stop with that.. Don't want you to get a concussion...

Heck cb, if Patton would have gotten his way we wouldn't be dealing with Russia today.

One of the things that worries me is that we're all getting distracted by internal controversies and so-called culture wars, while what should be our REAL enemies eat our breakfast (China) and bomb us (or our allies) by lunch (NK).

Do you think that's really going to affect him or get him to stop?
