  1. Because anyone who knows anything knows that getting into a fight is a dangerous business that can end with permanent injury or even death.

  2. I'm still trying to figure out why Australia and Poland went into Iraq.

  3. This is one example where climate change is not being cited as a reason.

  4. FYI, for all the conspiracy theorists: scientists are not citing climate change as a reason for this.

  5. Actually they didn't win it. It never ended.

  6. Well, as I told you: that article was behind a paywall and I'm not going to fork out for the privilege of reading what could very well be a beat up. I don't think anyone is that stupid, except the ones who want to believe it. Because, apart from that one WSJ link, a simple Google search doesn't show up a single credible source.

  7. That was proven to be false.

  8. Yeah, right... Keep the hate going. America can't live without it.

  9. LOL!! Can you not read? It says "may have", not "did"...LOL!! Other than that, the rest of that article is behind a paywall.

  10. No. There are none which can be air launched either. Next they'll claim the Russians cheated.

  11.  @ViralTuber  Why should I believe you, especially when you’ve gone to such great lengths to explain it and put down the opinion of someone who dares disagree with you? I am not a millennial but I have extensive experience with these situations and the old saying, ‘fools rush in’ springs to mind in your case. This is not about who is male and who’s a sissy. It’s about thinking with your big head and not your little head. There’s about as much chance of me believing your imaginative piece about pummelling someone as there is of me flying to the moon. The world is full of internet alphas. The best option the crew has is to give the vision to the police. Following that guy is not nearly as good an option.

  12.  @Yellowribbonontheoldoaktree  That may be true but I don't think that's why they went.

  13. @beans oof No, I don’t. Climate change is real and I don’t need any convincing. I’m just trying to head off the argument before it starts. Larsen C a few years ago was climate related. This one isn’t.

  14. Tell me how you would have done it differently.

  15.  @BillyBob-1776  In a red state he would have shot the reporter.

  17.  @dennisraeimakers5218  And you think, what? That it’s okay?

  18.  @dennisraeimakers5218  Then you're part of the problem.

  19.  @BillyBob-1776  No I'm not.

  20.  @BillyBob-1776  Look up the fatal shooting of a reporter and cameraman in Virginia (red state) on 22 August, 2015.

  21.  @BillyBob-1776  No, I'm extremely well-versed on gun crime statistics in the United States.

  22.  @BillyBob-1776  Good example though. If you want to get into a silly argument about gun crime in red states, be my guest but I'm your worst nightmare: a former shooter who's done a lot more research than you. Did you know that Texas (red state) has more gun crime than any other state?

  23.  @BillyBob-1776  Proof - if any were needed - that the gun lobby doesn't understand -rates._ The trouble with those 'statistics' is childishly over simplistic. Your version of gun crime relies on people thinking that it all depends on bigly numbers. The problem is, of course, that most of the major population centres are in blue states and all you do it look at raw numbers. Gun violence is judged on a per capita basis, something the gun lobby simply refuses to understand. On that basis, of the top 20 worst states for gun crime, all but five are red states. Look it up for yourself. The statistics are quite easy to find. Oh, and by the way, nobody is allowed the luxury of simply leaving out a few bad numbers to make things look better. Statistics don't work that way.

  25.  @ViralTuber  "Your original question signaled you're already perplexed enough over my plainly-worded suggestion that someone should "follow the man from a safe distance to hopefully get a chance to summon law enforcement before he escapes the area."" No, that was you 'could have at least...', implying that there was a better alternative. The only alternative you've come up with is that it should have come to a fight. "So I intentionally and predictably blew your mind by offering brief details of a true experience of mine from decades ago. So you don't believe me." No, I think you're a tough -talking, self-proclaimed, wannabe alpha, using the opportunity to make up an insincere story for the purposes of a bit of grandstanding. I can tell you know little about these situations because of your excessive use of emotional language. "Earning some incredulous goofball stranger's faith in me, serves me no purpose." Then why did you bother? ""Oh, I need some abrasive dimwitted stranger to trust me!" ...and then... "Oh glory day, the obnoxious not-so-bright stranger that comes off like a jerk finally believes me! " Sounds a lot more like you than me. "Bye." Yes, if I were you, I'd run away too. CYA tough guy.

  27. Earth Space Russia is a very different place from anywhere else. Their history is vastly different for a start. They value different things in their leaders. Putin is very popular there and there’s not much the West can or should do about it. It’s what I’ll miss about Angela Merkel when she steps down. Merkel decided she could either work with Putin or things would be far more difficult. I’m not silly enough to advocate working with complete tyrants but nor do I think the situation was ever that bad. Not dealing with him would have been far worse and nobody else in Europe could have been as effective as the Pomeranian Grenadier.

  28.  @realDanielAugustine  Yeah, that’s where the bravado becomes just so much talk.

  29. That’s disgraceful. Hope he got charged by police.
