In that scenario, we’d all mourn the losses, average Joe would get furious, some would Liberals burn flags and whine about war and hell and “why can’t we have peace?” (and then get shot), and Conservatives laugh and talk big about “that attack was only a scratch at America’s power” or some BS (and be praised for “Patriotism” [hiding in their bunkers]), and then, for the finale, nuke the living shit out of whoever hit us (and then the old East Bloc, China, N. Korea, all of the Middle East, and maybe Cuba too).

Yeah.

Or, we would just tweet about how some asshole blowing the freeway up (along with the rest of L.A., Portland, Seattle, Denver (no more omelets =/), Miami, NYC, and other population centers) made us all late to work today.

Woohoo U.S.A.!

I don’t think you actually know what the term “tactical” means. Just because it’s big, mean, and makes a big bang doesn’t mean it’s not tactical. It simply means that it’s the best thing for the job and when performing MOUT operations the AA-12 would be the perfect thing for the job. Another example would be the task of laying a mine field in under an hour. It’s not as simple as digging a hole and tossing it in. The TMD would be ideal for this task. It’s not a cluster-bomb as you so ignorantly stated. It’s actually exactly what it says, a MUNITION DISPENSER! It drops 100’s of anti-personnel land mines (which saves many back-breaking hours of labor). And by the way, the mine in the “Schrapnell mine” (which is spelled wrong) that you described is an American FRAGMENTATION mine known as the M16A1 “Bouncing Betty.”

A wise NCO once told me it’s better to remain silent and be thought an idiot then to open your mouth and remove all doubt. If you don’t believe what I’ve told you then I suggest you go talk to a combat engineer. He’ll educate you.

“Claimed a 110,00 lives when they were about to surrender…” huh? How about the Japanese post-Invasion plans to equip every man, woman, and child with weapons and fight to the last. That is what Hideki Tojo and the rest of his miltary Junta planned to do. Do you know the estimates for Allied casualties during the planned invasion of Japan? One Million, and the Japanese were estimated at several MILLION. Several million lives to 110,000, a decent ratio!?! I think the use of nukes is justified, Truman didn’t even want to use them. Remember he refused to use them on China in the Korean War, Truman even fired MacArthur over that (Headlines from the day “TRUMAN FIRES MAC!”) So quit hiding in your “I’m a pussy-hole” and realize we do what must be done to end wars…..jackass

Damn, wtf, you took the words right off my fingertips. Although it took something like 30 comments for someone to finally say it. Good job.

tactical does not = surgical.
