OT: Trump drops the 'Mother of All Bombs" on Afghanistan...(Edited)

i really hope @johnhugh is just trolling and doesnt believe half of what he is typing.

It truly is sad that some americans have these beliefs. I cant fathom a situation where you think peace is just a gift. Wars happen because there are two sides. Kind of like the arguments in this thread. You could just fall in line and join the masses that think differently than you and no one would be threatening you to a fight. But you just cant seem to do it.

Now imagine that you belief in healthcare and Trump are actually worth you dying for like the Nazis or Radical Islams. You cant find peace on a message board and you wonder why we have to fight for our freedoms.

In the military you would be one of tge ones that was accidentally killed by friendly fire. And not because you are 6'6" and wear skinny jeans.
I love how you concluded that if I were in the army that my own fellow soldiers would kill me. That's awesome.
 
I disagree. What sucks is that I graduate in a month.

Also I'm pretty sure he said he can just grab em by the p***y. I'm trying to be like him. It's not that hard to understand. Are you sure you went to Clemson?

Wasn't expecting anybody to catch that one. Half the people posting in this thread can't even read. Damn autocorrect bites again

Grow up kid. I'm baffled over your ignorance and maturity level! You are using the exact same logic as my 6 year old... "but dad, so and so did it first." He knows his actions were wrong, but tries to justify it with this childish excuse. At least he knows he is wrong. I hate that you are a Clemson fan. I'm sure the campus is going to hate seeing you leave.

Jeez dude it's just locker room talk. No biggie?
The fact you dont understand that is a possibility is why it is a possibility.
Where did I say I don't understand it's a possibility. Now you're assuming. We both know what comes next, I think
 
My comments in bold.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. You're the first to do so in this thread or the one on the mainboard. I'm always interested to hear opposing thoughts and even agreed with some of your takes. Glad to see that you could begrudgingly admit that he's done some things right as well. Gives me a small glimmer of hope for mankind













Siiiiiike! Cash me outside. How bout dah?!

Edit: I must be hammered... I've never said that or found it to be funny. Hovice out

No 6 year old rationale in "locker room talk." Previous poker is correct.... attention whore. Out
 
Russia.. I think others can easily be considered socialist.

As you noted, the USSR was not one of our enemies during WWII (at least at the end).

As for the others, Nazi Germany was primarily facist. Also here's Nazism. I'll concede they've got some Socialist flare but not enough to call them a socialist economy.

Italy was famously facist.

Japan had very little socialism in their government.


Point being, the Greatest Generation didn't really stop the spread of Communism or Socialism through their efforts in WWII. You can make some argument that that occured during the Cold War but you didn't mention that and the Cold War had an awful lot of Baby Boomers involved.

You seem to be a little more knowledgeable in this arena. I knew Russia was our ally until the end of the war. We didn't trust then, evolved into a old War.

So, I will concede to you on this. Not sure why I'm confusing fascism with communism Thanks for clearing that up for for the sake of future embarrassment.

The national socialist German workers party or Nazi party?

And referencing your Italy link

"Mussolini asserted that the French Marxist and revolutionary syndicalist Georges Sorel was his “master,”[4] who he claimed was instrumental in birthing the core principles of Italian fascism, that eventually “fused socialism with nationalism.”[5] Other historians argued that Fascism billed itself “not only as an alternative, but also as the heir to socialism"

No way an 11 ton bomb creates a 1000 ft crater. Our largest nuke test ever created a 2000 ft crater (74 feet deep). That was 15 megatons (15 million metric tons). The MOAB would take out Times Square. Probably leaves a 75-100 foot crater depending on the type of ground it explodes over.

Yeah the media, as usual, overhyped the truth. The safe stand off distance is less than 2 miles.
 
;);)
Seen the bomb in Afghanistan a couple of months ago, it was the most massive and beautiful thing I've ever seen. Please don't bring up the rules, I know the rules but also love my job and pictures obviously weren't allowed (Opsec).

Jesus man just how far in the rear were you?

I'm not getting off. I'm just curious why it's not ok for me to emulate our President? Trump says it, he's a bauce. I say it, I'm a Doosh. There's a break in logic in there
Not to change the subject but I think you should troll FGF and report back. I just went over there and it's like shooting fish in a barrel and I wasn't trying. rustled.

I knew I was taught this by one of my professors. Maybe I missed the next day that included counter argument?

In NAM they had special treats waiting for arrogant 2nd Lieutenants such as grenades in the tent or enlisted encourage the wearing of the ranks with lots of color as Cong loved to shoot officers first or during a firefight getting in the line of friendly fire

yes some of our own were killed by their fellow soldiers

NOT a good thing but some people are CRAZY
 
This statement is what we in my office refer to as a factoid. It was stated as a fact. It looks like a fact. It sounds like a fact. But it is in fact not a fact.

This is one of those sound bites latched onto by the snowflake generation in hopes that if they say it often enough that everyone will just accept it as a fact. (All the while arguing various points saying that we are a nation of laws, while insisting that the laws they do not like NOT be enforced.)

But the FACT is that generations of Americans have understood that illegal immigration is a threat to our Republic. Perhaps you will understand this fact better if it is explained to you by someone who feels your pain.


#themoreyouknow
GA took all illegal immigrants off their farms so our hardworking Americans could have those jobs. This happened I believe in '09.

The crops rotted and the illegals were allowed back

Please provide a link to a reliable source.
 
@Ron Munson it does not appear that Trump's "message" had the intended effect.

I don't think anyone is scared of North Korea. Billy, GW, and Barry all laughed at them. Every time they have a missle test, it fails. The whole world is laughing at them. They aren't like Iran or Russia.

Now if they ever can successfully launch a missle then that is another story, because I do believe they would be dumb enough to do it...and assuming China or Russia doesn't back them, North Korea would cease to exist.
 
Its always amazing how many people think other Americans deserve to die just for having a different point of view. Its the same mentality of those snowflakes protesting free speech at Berkley. Name calling whiney children who can't have a simple discussion without losing their mind.

@Ron Munson

It was reported a few days ago that China was moving significant number of troops to the north korea border. China's troop movement is what prevented us from crossing the 38th parallel during the korean war.

We can only hope that Trump's meeting with China at his country club went really, really well, or he may be taking us into WW3. And I pray that when Trump tweets threats out to North Korea, that he really knows what the f&ck he is doing, and is not treating a nuclear power like he treats Arnold Swarzenegger.

If China allies with North Korea, then yes you are right, it is the Korean War all over...and disaster for everyone. North Korea is a joke on their own though.

Everyone should be hoping this gets resolved, otherwise the shit could hit the fan in a couple of weeks.
