The USA does not posses the man power to “crack down” on 300 million citizens. Do the math.

Might as well get comfortable since we can’t stop it. We just have to deal with whatever happens after they do it.

And they will do it. Several of Barrys advisers are proponents of population reduction.

It was a joke thread! You got your panties in a bunch over a joke!

No, it was a rhetorical question that involved the deaths of hundreds of thousands if not millions of people. Many of them innocent. One of them being the love of my life. The fact that you or anyone else found humor in it is perplexing.

They’ve thought of that, especially about missiles launches from ships, so they significantly extended the inspection zone for the Coast Guard. I believe it is now 200 miles from the coast.

Besides, the real discussion here is the fact that so many here would jump at the opportunity to dance on the radioactive ashes of innocent people to make some sick political point.

You have to admit, radioactive ashes are pretty funny.

These guys are walking on radioactive ashes, and they're all grinning.

Where do you get the idea all 300 million citizens would be opposed to a govt. crackdown especially if it was a selective crackdown on lefts political enemies?

Humor is in the eye of the beholder.

Kinda like a shard of glass.

Not to be callous but their sacrifice would be worth the destruction of the nest of snakes that is DC.

No one (let me repeat that) NO ONE wants to see ANY city or part of our country attacked. It was a joke!

The fact that you took it so personally is perplexing.

Maybe when (God forbid) her father passes. He's ill on many different levels and has a team of doctors that know him and it would be impossible, at this late stage to relocate and find all the doctors he would need.

Upon his demise, I'm confident my mother in law would relocate. I'm sure you understand that while I don't want to be here in Maryland, I'm not looking forward to my wife's father passing away either to facilitate the move.

What difference does it make?

None. the dead would still vote democratic.

The dead would be listed in the census (times 10!) to increase the welfare payments and number of demmocrats receiving government payroll checks.

I hear ya. Best of luck. Don’t take it personal when we idly daydream of Washington’s obliteration.

Unfortunateley, this is not a bad joke:

Roughly 10,000 military personnel were expected to participate in the maneuvers, which are intended as practice for a large-scale nuclear offensive, according to the Russian newspaper. Exercise participants were set to position and prepare missile-firing units for launch, and to practice various administrative and support functions for the operation, said Col. Igor Yegorov, a Russian Defense Ministry spokesman for the strategic missile services.

link in Russian: (they had 13 drills in 2013 x 3000 soldiers particpating each time. They expect to have more and larger drills in 2014) http://www.ng.ru/armies/2014-03-26/6_strike.html

Why are they doing this?
