The little ignorant fool boob has no clue to the many different types of nukes nowadays and how they do not leave signatures in their wake like the old caveman nukes from the very early days.

Ignorant Boob only knows two things .... nothing except pictures of birds and bolts .....

There is no evidence, zero, that nuclear weapons have been used outside of Japan '45. Just another crazy conspiracy theory like the faked moon landing and 9/11 inside-job lunacy.

DU is used as a highly dense penetrator used in larger caliber anti-armor rounds... Although slightly radioactive it's mainly the toxic effects of the metal itself. You wouldn't want to breathe the uranium dust/particles in, but it falls well outside traditional use of nuclear or fission/fusion weapons.

I believe it is the Duty of every American to accept the results of a election-- move on and get political if need be to change the direction in the next election.

Yes. It was an absolute tragedy the way Nixon was hounded from office. So disrespectful to those that voted for him. Very unpatriotic. Get rid of the checks and balances immediately.

Trump says he’s considering pardon for Joe Arpaio

Oh, the power of pardon, generally used for righting a wrong, will now be used for a political payback.

yes, because nothing says a US President should respect and uphold the Department of Justice, who's Judge in Arizona found Arpaio guilty of ignoring his orders to cease and desist from singling out Hispanics for stop and searches without legal cause

watch the sh!t hit the fan if he pardons this convicted and sentenced racist criminal

Come on Ken, the presidential pardon has been used for a number of reasons over the years, many not deserving.

I think it should be very limited in scope, to truly miscarriages of justice. But then, I am an idealist.

EDIT

And frost in August? What happened to summer? This is supposed to be the Sunny Southeast. I could understand, perhaps, the midlands, but 60 meters from the Celtic Sea? Oceans are supposed to moderate climates. It must be global climate cooling. I blame France. Or England (a favorite ball to kick here).

I'd imagine it is nice and sunny in the Meadows. Nothing like running to Cathedral Peak, climbing it and looking out across one of the most beautiful vistas. Tuolumne kicks ass.

Sort of like a snowstorm in August on the way to the Price Glacier, Mt Shuksan.

Snow in August (1973) in the Cascades? WTF? We had a tent though, and some hooch.

Oh yeah, thread drift.

What now about Mr Trump?

I remain puzzled by the celebration of the Confederacy---made up of traitors to the United States. Putting up statutes to their leaders?

Are we putting up statues of Benedict Arnold, next? How about Robert Hanssen, the spy?

Ken, a very valid point, in a neutral eye.

But while Robert E Lee (West Point) was no doubt a military strategist, you are correct, he did rebel against his nation. And for what?

On the simple note, a state's right to govern outside of federal law. So slaves are okay (in the Old Testament perhaps, but the New Testament?, if one is religious), and "we will not be dictated by Washington, for our economic progress".

Is it really that simple? Actually, yes. Economics. (And the feeling that non-whites - people who are not caucasians - are nothing but cattle.)

Even asians but wait, Cauc-Asians?

Gosh Bushman, the Aryan Race must hate to see such a picture. A non-Aryan that is armed and serving as a steward of the peace.

This whole effing thing makes me sick. America is sick. What can we do but pontificate on the Taco Stand.

We have the Trump apologists, we have the conservative voices, we have the liberal voices, but where is the sense of it. Who listens?

Is the question; what does it take before we truly listen, when we become teachable? Is it too late for the new generation of young people to have their opinions and hearts swayed from a philosophy which is already ingrained in them?

Very few people that I talk to have a solid grasp of history. Without history we have little to gauge the causes of present socio-political events or any kind of clue what these events mean as they transpire.

but where is the sense of it.

the sense of it runs like this:

There is a narrative that runs that the Nazis arose because it was an inherent trait of the germanic peoples.

But this stuff gives the lie to that. It does not belong to them, it can belong to any race, any culture, any society. We are not immune to becoming monsters.

Guyman, President Trump's admin will attempt an assassination to take out senior leadership at a meeting somewhere. A bloody coup will occur, with western interests backing a mutiny from the military.

But which senior leader will the Trump admin assassinate?
