CA doesn’t deserve more defense (though I know some good people who live there) or the extra benefits to local economy that would come from it. stick the new defense stuff in AK or any western state. us AZ or NV instead of CA.
It should now be mandatory that every democrat voter in our USA -before being allowed into a voting booth- must read and fully comprehend every word of the Clinton National Security Scandal and Coverup!
And then after having completed this task all these same democrats must review the entire Loral Shareholders case which still sits stymied in Judge Lamberths federal court room.
Couldn’t we still site them in the red counties of blue states?
What about the snail-dart three-legged fish though?
“You would think that they would have been in place years ago,’
The Uniparty NWO’s blocked it for reasons one can only imagine.
Unfortunately true, but the only thing we have other than the navy’s shipboard Aegis system.
If I still lived in Marin County they’d be welcome to put a THAAD truck in my hard. It would be worth it just to piss off all of my Commie neighbors. Plus I’d do a barbecue once in a while for the duty missile crew.
Nothing stops a nuclear attack like an elementary school desk. Hiding underneath those cast-iron things will save you, just like the 50s-era refrigerator saved Indiana Jones.

I always note with irony the complaints from people about California, posted on a conservative website based in California....
We live in a red county of Mexifornia but I am not sure if I want to be a target by anti anti missiles. Station them at the coast or off shore sea based.
Everybody mocks those old duck and cover drills, but not every school kid was potentially at ground zero. The shock wave would have blown out windows beyond the immediate kill zone and not being ripped to shreds by glass shrapnel would have been nice in those dire circumstances.
A guy named Tsutomu Yamaguchi survived BOTH atomic blasts at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He was only two miles from ground zero at the first one. In Nagasaki he was explaining to a Mitsubishi company director what had happened at Hiroshima when a blinding light flashed outside the window. “Yamaguchi dropped to the ground just seconds before the shock wave shattered the office windows and sent broken glass and debris careening through the room. “
Duck and cover worked for him.
“Sprint accelerated at 100 g, reaching a speed of Mach 10 in 5 seconds.”
That’s an E-Ticket Ride...
And what about California sites? How about in San Francisco? LOL!
Most of the locations I posted are in California.
My backyard is available for lease.
Pendleton and Bremerton are in CA?
I don’t think so.
” placing Washington within target range,”
Only when Washington came in range do they think about protecting the West Coast. Pure self interest there.
Nooooo!!! I can’t live without San Fransisco Sourdough Bread LOL
” the old Safeguard site in either Montana or North Dakota “
The old Safeguard site in Montana was never built. Construction on it was started at about the same time as the North Dakota site, but was delayed by a construction workers strike. Nixon traded it off in the Missile Defense treaty. Agreed with the Soviets for each nation to build only two missile defense sites. One to defend the national capitol and one to defend a missile field. The Soviets supposedly built something to defend Moscow & we built Safeguard North Dakota. It became operational, but the Dems shut it down after about half a year. Apparently the Perimeter Acquisition Radar is still operational http://www.afspc.af.mil/About-Us/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/1126406/perimeter-acquisition-radar-attack-characterization-system/ but it only looks north. North Korea is west.
