  1. Guess Biden could also bump off a few of Trump's SCOTUS appointments. The possibilities are endless. 🙄
  2. https://theaviationist.com/2023/10/06/f-35b-intercept-il-38/ The Brits have 138 F-35B's on order.
  3. Like any other ship, it's armed with whatever you put on it. The Brits are using it mainly as an Aegis type ship to protect their new carriers.
  4. The US has the largest prison population and the greatest incarceration rate in the world. If that's all it takes there should be no murders in the US at all.
  5. Right wing evangelicals are behind all those things but I fully understand they don't represent all Christians or even a majority. I'm done here.
  6. I'm a live and let live guy, I don't tell others how to live their lives. You are the one with your knickers in a knot. All I said is tyrants come in all forms, religious and non religious. For some reason you find that offensive.
  7. I have friends who are regular church goers. We don't talk religion or judge each other and get along just fine. If faith makes their lives better that's great but it is their life, not mine. You are the one on a rant here, not me.
  8. What about the cost of buying and operating the 75+ aircraft each of them would carry? Carriers are useless without aircraft. Where are you going find and pay for the 4500+ crew each carry? At least others are operating the Type 26. The CH-148 is a one off orphan that only we use. Maintaining it in future with its proprietary systems will. be very difficult and expensive. They are already worried about parts availability and the final machines haven’t even been delivered. We will be 100% on the hook for every mod and upgrade with no others to share development costs. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/cyclone-helicopters-defence-air-force-1.7088390
  9. Ah, the CH-148, the biggest procurement F Up in Canadian history.
  10. I don't hate Christians or any other religious people, I just hate fundamentalists who want to impose their beliefs on everyone else. I was responding to this statement Tyrants come in all colours, religious and atheist. They get power when people believe one person has all the answers and are willing to trade their freedoms for a quick fix. Even better if they can trade someone else's freedoms. Democracy is messy, always has been.
  11. Not all but they are behind denying women's and LGBTQ rights, censorship and banning of books. Controlling others lives according to their own beliefs.
  12. Fundamentalists are fundamentalists regardless of what hat they wear. It's their way or the highway.
  13. So what does lack of religion have to do with anything? Seems to me that theocracies are some of the worst like Iran and Saudi Arabia. Evangelicals in the US seem hell bent on putting their Messiah in power.
  14. Refresh my memory, when was the last mass murder committed with a spoon?
  15. Your counter argument is the body count is acceptable. You really don't care. I'll take mine thanks.
  16. What churches do Putin and Xi attend?
  17. As opposed to gunning down 20 or so school kids. You need to be precise to do that.
  18. Ya, on all that media you say Biden controls.
  19. Ya right, the gun lobby owns Democrats as well.
  20. Sad but true for many of the i--ots here. Makes them no different from drug dealers. Why not if Mexico wins? We have the same issues with illegal US guns entering the country.
  21. Exactly, so why do you give them to just anyone? More Americans are killed by firearms every year than by motor vehicles. At least you need to pass a test and get a license to drive a car. It's a privilege, not a right.
  22. Wait and see at the trial. You basically let anyone have a gun. Almost every mass murderer and school shooter got their guns legally. When Covid first hit it was probably easier for an American to buy a gun than toilet paper.
  23. Ya, Biden controls all these. 🙄 https://journalists.feedspot.com/conservative_news_websites/ You get wingier with every post.
