Re: North Korea Nuke Tests Successful

Look at your post and tell me that isn't selfish. Hey, if for some reason we have a draft, you won't be in safety any longer.

It is selfish.

I honestly don't care if I'm selfish.

and btw, I am definitely not doing **** if there is a draft. I'll draft dodge up in Canada or something.

If N. Korea launches a nuke and kills 200K+ ppl in S. Korea its no biggy?

Yeah. Who cares? I mean, yeah, it sucks for them, but it really shouldn't matter to the average American.

Tesla Coils aren't anti-air and wouldn't be credited to Yuri.

ya tesla coils should definitely be credited to tesla

Re: North Korea Nuke Tests Successful

Why should I be?

Even if North Korea was retarded enough to attack the US, they definitely wouldn't hit anywhere near where I live.

And even if they were planning on attacking some weird-ass place that doesn't make any sense to hit, the chances of them choosing an area near me are so unlikely given the size of the country.

So, in conclusion, North Korea would have to be retarded to attack the US, and even if they did, I'd be safe anyway.

Because you know, everyone lives in the USA, and people living in more vulnerable countries don't matter.

Having nuclear arms is alot more than being able to blast a country into shiverines. It gives you control, and puts fear over other countries. Who the hell is going to risk attacking N. Korea if they've got so much power? It helps Kim Jung maintain his dictatorship (owait lolz i mean communism) if anything. THAT is what we should be worried about.

Re: North Korea Nuke Tests Successful

Oh.

We should be worried because we can no longer invade a foreign country and force our ideals on them.

I'd say that's a good thing.

Re: North Korea Nuke Tests Successful

Afrobean - Stop being a retard. North Korea having a nuke means they they have power. It's no secret that they've threatened to use nukes on anybody who tried to attack them (they said that sometime in September, I think.) Right now, there's little chance of it being used on the US, but if eventually one is, do you think it will matter that you live in Nowhere, US? The blast could kill hundreds of thousands of people instantaneously if it was detonated in, say, New York City, disrupt commerce, create a huge tax on all of America for repair and rebuilding, radiation could be blown for hundreds of miles, killing and sickening millions more.

And what moral dilemma would they have selling these nukes to, say, Al-Qaeda? Hm, make money selling deadly weapons to an organization that hates your enemies? Tough decision there.

Also, though we do have a few anti-missle defenses scattered on the coasts, we are nowhere near completing the anti-missle defense promised to be done by 2008, then 2010, and.. I'm not sure, but I think it's 2014 now? I'm not holding my breath.

Ehm, Sir Thomas? You definitely wouldn't see a mushroom cloud before you disintegrate... If you're close enough, you would be vaporized instantly, leaving only scattered ashes, and if you weren't, you would, over a couple of days, have your organs cooked from radiation until you can't move.. Just saying.

Oh, because public executions and completely abusing the country's system for his own benefit is something that needs not be stopped.

Re: North Korea Nuke Tests Successful

You know what Afrobean? I think your a ***, a **** sucking **** eating *** with no care of humanity, even the South Koreans, who have a chance of getting hit. And you think it's no biggie? Let me bomb the **** out of your home and kill you, the flames melting and peeling your skin and hair off, your screams of forgiveness unheard, because nobody listens to you. I hope God sends you to hell and get assraped by a threesome for the rest of your life, you mother****er.

Re: North Korea Nuke Tests Successful

who cares

We have nukes, so why shouldn't they be able to have them?

Because of the Arms race that it could cause in the far east.

All it takes for evil to provail is for good people to do nothing.

kickassbuddy: Ur a funny one. Yeah you have a point Afro is slightly retarded ...... Just slightly.

Re: North Korea Nuke Tests Successful

Afrobean, you don't get it.

They're not obligated to do it. But your mom didn't have a gun to her head when she decided to have you either.

If nobody gave a **** about other people our world would be in smoulders. The USA isn't obligated to do anything with North Korea's situation, but as the currently most powerful nation, you'd think they atleast have something to say? Just the link in the first post proves that very point. People care. People want to do something about it. Quit acting like you're speaking on everyone's behalf.

Quoting Spiderman-

"With great power comes great responsibility"

Now there are a lot of arguments for and against the use of power and infringing on an sovereign nation's rights and blah blah blah. You may feel that no nation should interfere with another's policies and/or activities, and you may feel that even when we mask our true intent with so-called "heroic actions" we are just acting out of self-interest, and really, this is the truth. But those who have the power will use it and use it to benefit themselves, that's the just the nature of the beast.

It's just one of those things, you can argue for or against it, and you may or may not be right. But you won't know until something happens or something comes along that proves to us an absolute truth, which will probably never happen.

Re: North Korea Nuke Tests Successful

Hey guys, point of notice here: selfishness != retardedness.

I know very well what I'm saying and what the implications are. I just don't really care. As far as my consciousness is concerned, those people in South Korea that you guys are hung up on don't even exist, because I'll never see them, hear directly from them, and they'll never have any sort of real effect on my life. Yeah, I know they really do exist, but they might as well not, and why should I worry about something that has no effect over me and I can't do anything about?

By the way, yeah, from a moral standpoint, there should be something done, but I really don't think there is anything we could do anyway. If we invade them like we did Iraq, they'd just flip out and probably nuke everything they can.

Spec, I pretty much totally agree. With great power does come great responsibility. Because of this, I'm going to have faith that North Korea is going to be responsible.

and btw:

which will probably never happen.

complete truth. No need to get your panties in a bunch over something that will likely end up not even mattering. Just think of all the nations that have such power weapons already. Do they use them? No. They probably just want them to be protected so we don't invade them and **** them up like we did in Iraq.
