You still want to put words in my mouth to make a non-existent argument. Maybe you're out of ammo.

So, do you want an actual conversation or not? I'm not the enemy. You say you don't see why anyone would propose any country having nukes, yet you live in one that has the most. Do you really not see it? You'd rather talk about straw.

I must admit, I've always had my doubts about guys with numbers in their SN's. They're usually either trolls, wingnuts or just seriously lacking in imagination. You just cashed in your "benefit of the doubt card". Enjoy the rest of your stay.

Is there something you would like to discuss? blueridge3210 May 2014 #1

There you go again. Sometimes I wonder if you actually read my posts. Starboard Tack May 2014 #41
Full auto weapons are a red herring hack89 May 2014 #42
