Not to worry. In regard to the Norks, it would most likely be misguided.
However misguided their missiles might or might not be, NOrks have made frighteningly remarkable progress in the past year. We are no longer safe—not anywhere in US. Even if they hit a wheat field in North Dakota, I think that would have a substantial impact on the entire country.
For months and months, some people here have laughed at the prospect that North Korea could ever be a threat to US—blown it off and discounted the concern and warnings of some.
Sadly, there are are numerous threads of Freepers joking/ fantasizing what cities they would like Norks to hit here in US...cities like LA, Seattle, or San Fran...
NO more fantasizing...This is the new reality—they have the capability to hit anywhere...not limited to the West Coast, Hawaii or Alaska—sadly acceptable collateral damage to some.
There have been knowledgeable Freepers concerned all along. I hope they will take time to post their information and thoughts again.
It is time to get serious about understanding that Norks actually can hit any place in the world according to our own general, Mathis. Worse case if they are or can use submarine launchers which someone posted up thread.
IMHO, pressure needs to be brought to bear on our do-nothing pols to eliminate the threat as an offensive measure and to harden our grid as a defensive measure.
People in flyover country perhaps don’t realize the threat...that although the citizens’ bomb shelters have not been maintained and are likely in disrepair, the government has gone to great lengths to provide secure locations and provisions for our public “servants.” There are books and articles that document this. If SHTF, the government will survive, the citizens will not fare as well.
I think the citizens need to put pressure on Congress—no one else will—the media is preoccupied with sexual harassment, Pocahontas, and Pecan pies. Meanwhile, the Norks keep progressing :(
The sexual harassment stuff has been overplayed. Tired of hearing about it. Don’t care anymore. So all men are harassers. OK right. I’m being disrespected by some punk ass at work. But because it’s not “sexual” I can’t do anything about it. Am old enough to be his mother and been with the company much longer than him but since they promote people there regardless of their demeanor/personality he became the manager so now I get to be belittled, ignored when needing guidance, and treated with open disdain but simply have to deal with it because dude is now the manager. When he was a “mere” supervisor the F word flew out of his mouth 50+ times a day, which I don’t care to hear so often, but nobody gives a crap about things like professionalism, courtesy and respect anymore.
Sorry I went on that rant lol. Got off topic. When I read the part where you mentioned those things media are so focused on it triggered me cause I too am getting tired of it.
