This shit is unreal. I guess everytime we do it, it just becomes a little bit easier to do. We are doing shit that is the equivalent of declaring war on a country.

Can you imagine for just one minute if one of us was to start an "opposition" to the U.S. govt. and have tanks, sub-machine guns and anti-aircraft weapons like the rebels in Libya do? I can tell you what would happen. The U.S. army would come here into Vegas (if it were me doing it) and completely destroy us.

And if that happened...would the world call for other countries to declare a "no-fly" zone over the U.S. and then start firing in missiles?
Hell no.

This shit is out of hand. I thought as a country we were all in agreement to not do this "pre-emptive" "just in case" shit anymore after Iraq. And yet...here we go!

And how much does every one of those missiles cost that we are firing? Isn't our country bankrupt already? Aren't the politicians screaming that they need to tax us MORE and give the federal govt. MORE power?

I don't know. Count me as an American who wants nothing to do with the affairs of other countries and someone who thinks all this meddling is just wrong on our part.
