Damnit man, are you trying to kill people? Disintegration is the most cost-efficient method. Yikes. Even your jokes don't make any sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A True Kaniggit Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I don’t like all of this coward talk of shooting down the balloon with jets or arrows or nukes or whatnot. Clearly the thing to do is send up our own balloon to fight it. Mano a mano. Derfel Cadarn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry of the Lake Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 3 hours ago, ThinkerX said: Did see a few comments from the far right claiming or speculating that the Chinese balloon was 'spreading Anthrax' or some such. Also saw mention that the gondola this thing is lugging is bigger than three city busses. That be room for a *lot* of spy gear. Makes me wonder just what kind of surveillance equipment could be that bulky. And if it's heavy as well, then yes, the debris could be an issue. Finally got is with the 21 year long con anthrax attack. Post 9/11 America is absolutely reeling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martell Spy Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Quote Stepping to the microphone in the sanctuary, a man who introduced himself as a combat Vietnam veteran suggested that the way the party censures politicians — a punishment previously slapped on the late Sen. John McCain, his widow, Cindy, former Gov. Doug Ducey and former Sen. Jeff Flake, among others – was insufficient for the times. Instead, he said, “We should duct tape people to a tree in a dog park, so the dogs can pee on them. And then, when they’re there for a few hours and they have to crap in their pants, they can wallow in their own shit.” The State Where the GOP Would Rather Lose Than Change Faith in elections has risen for most Republicans since 2020. Not in Arizona. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2023/02/03/arizona-republican-party-election-denialism-lae-00080615 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
