  • Troops in Vietnam had ice cream and cold Coca Cola.

    There are mobile Burger Kings that can be loaded into military supply transports.

    That’s just food.

    You have no idea the capabilities of US logistics. Why do you think we have military bases on 6 continents and half the countries in the fucking world. It’s not just for fucking fun. The whole point is that the US can have a fully supplied fighting force anywhere in the world within a couple days.

    Go lick fascist boots somewhere else. I still stand by the idea that democracy should be defended.






  • Eh, I’ve had guns in my face before.

    I’d rather do what’s right than lick boots because of some twerps with guns.

    I legitimately don’t know the legal status of many of my friends. I know some of them are going through the immigration process, but have no idea of their current status.

    At the end of the day, I’m not lying to an officer when I say I don’t know. I’m not an immigration official. I don’t ask to see my friends’ green cards when we hang out.

    I would rather live with being in jail on bullshit charges than thinking I might have helped ruin the lives of people I care about. But I also recognize that I’m in a privileged position to do that. I already own my house, I have skills and knowledge in a trade, and can easily start a small business to support myself and my family if no one will hire me.

    Do what you think is right for you. But if you rat out people you care about just because some dipshit waved a gun in your face, you’re a coward.

    Well that’s the thing, conventional explosions convert chemical bonds into energy. Chemical bonds are fairly weak in the grand scheme of things.

    Nuclear weapons convert nuclear bonds into energy. Atoms really like staying the atoms they currently are, so forcing them to convert all at once releases a ton of energy.
