This time what I learned in this thread is how to scroll really fast.
+1000 - Passing judgment on guys who just put their lives in harms way for us is exceptionally poor.
As for everything else... there's plenty of blame to share, Bush and Obama, Republicans and Democrats in Congress, a litigation-obsessed society, minimally engaged and/or effective parents, and the list goes on. I hope you guys are arguing to give each other a hard time, and not serious about trying to lay blame at (any) one person's feet.
I think when it comes to the big picture, someone would be a fool to think it could be blamed on any one person or any one party, that's for sure.
Just look at the economic mess, this goes all the way from just before Reagan through every single president since, including Obama. They have all sold out to the highest bidder. It's all cool when you're raking in that campaign cash, thinking youre about to go in there and make a difference... Then you learn that it wasn't free.
I think it's ridiculous to think that those men on that mission were anything but the best of the best all around. If it's a simple enough mistake that someone here can throw it about it's probably NOT what happened. Hahaha.
When this all first started coming out, someone in the admin had said that at some point there was a systems failure and there was a controlled sit down, which would absolutely not be that far fetched if they were running experimental or top secret aircraft.
Either way, it took some balls all the way around. I mean, SEAL team six, SOAR, etc and so on, not to mention someone had the wherewithal to say, screw Pakistan's image, let's go get the bastard. It's becoming more and more suspicious by the day and appears that someone was informing his *** each time someone got on the trail.
When you look at the whole of it, it's kind of a badass mission to think about. They straight-up flew into another country's airspace unannounced with one of the most elite teams we have, called em up like 5 minutes out all "we're rolling up in your junk, keep yourself in check, busted through the mission all Tom Clancy style and didn't give a **** if they were armed or not. Capped the bastard (rightfully so), took all the information, torched the downed stealth tech and got the hell out leaving like 5 people still in the house standing there like, "wha?".
All the while the heads of state are sitting there watching it all live and first person ala Predator 2 style.
I mean, that's gotta count for something. Badassery.
Would somebody please lock this tread.
Why would anyone lock the thread?
It's in it's proper forum, mostly on topic, Ldub and everyone else are still participating and there are no flames or insults being tossed around...
I'm personally enjoying the conversations.
You all suck!
There, personal unsult!
:laugho:
I'm with Marlin 100 %
Man, I stop posting for like 12 hours and all the arguing stops....someone has to babysit this thread:bgwb:
Larry, I think I agree with you to an extent, the only to fix any of this is a total revolution. Both sides suck, there is just WAY too much money involved, and money corrupts all. You could have the best intentions in the world, but when you start throwing around billions, intentions mean nothing.
Although some have assumed I am a republican, I assure you, I am not. I am a bit of a libertarian, pro-choice, pro-legalization, quit taxing everything and giving my money to poor people. I am most assuredly a prepper. Good thing that it doesn't hurt anyone, and everything I learn/buy is applicable to lots of other hobbies and whatnot.
What is a "prepper"
Basically someone who assumes the end is coming, at least an end to our current lifestyle. In that idea, a prepper is someone who prepares for the worst. Learning new skills, equipment and so on. I have multiple bobs (bug out bags), stocked with basic survival equipment.

Ah, gotcha.
Seems Al-Qaida are in on the conspiracy too...:rolleyes:

errrr..... maybe not for this forum! :laugho:
google it! It's GROSS!
Well, at least they have jobs...:bgwb:
I've been starting a go-bag myself Marlin. I always like hearing the different stuff people have in theirs. It's interesting the different interpretations of what people feel like they can survive with.
I think it's cool that there are these core components that everyone feels are essential, but then it splinters from there. Different fire starting methods, etc and so on.
Maybe it says something that I knew what a fluffer is, but not a prepper. Not sure what though...
What if you are a prepper and a fluffer:confused:
Instant upgrade...drink a Dr Pepper
Then you will be a Prepper/Fluffer/Pepper
Pop a collar or five for the next level...:smilewink

While meeting with the team, Obama was advised NOT to try giving him a scooby snack, as he doesn't play well...with anybody.

So get some then...:yesgray:

Can you imagine these guys at your door?...:freek:
Death on the doorstep for real.
And check the left forearm on the guy frame right.
Buncha BAD MO-FO's seems woefully inadequate as a descriptor in this case.

I assume that's a prosthetic? If so it's hard to believe they would keep him on active duty.
