I think what you say about the mobs and the like are true, but I also see a return of the KGB or government run secret agencies to end said mobs and organized crimes. I am very scared of a Russian(Soviet) allience with China in the future..... It is coming IMO. Makes me happy Condi Rice is the new Sec of State. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

Quite interesting read from 1999 .... Scary thing is, a lot of this is happening. I do see the an attempt by Moscow to "Get the Band Back together" over the coming decades... We'll see. In the mean time, here's a little read from 5 years ago. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

So, you do not think that Mr. Putin would not love to recreate the old Soviet Union? I think that is his ultimate goal. I also think that Victor Yushenko was poisoned by someone with close ties to the Kremlin. It was in Putins "Best Interest" to have the Kremlin backed canidate in office in Ukraine. If putin had his way, the former soviet block would be back together. Right now though there is only one way that can happen. Start moving russia from a democracy to a dictatorship so putin will be in office long enough to see this to an end. Now, doesn't it appear Mr. Putin is trying to do just that? ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

The Return of the Soviet Union is near.... Anyone who doesn't think so is crazy. In some sense this is good. Maybe all the Neo-communist/ New Left / Progressives will pack up and leave the US to go to their "Utopian/Marxist Dream" I don't want to be the one to tell them though that their system has inherent flaws and is destine to fail again. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

BTW -- There were some here playing down the strength of the lasers being used.... THis is from CNN today!!! Any laser visible 25,000 feet away is no simple "Laser pointer" you would buy at 7-11!!!!! ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty -

Snopes said that picture is real and from the Indian ocean tsunami.

Oh, I know it is. But you just hope our intel here at "home" is better than theirs "on the road". However, insurgents in Iraq are actively assasinating leaders. So, right now the street is one-way. They can and we can not. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

I am trouble understanding how you jumped from the first statement to the last. I'm not agreeing or disagreeing, only trying to follow the logic. John rich posted this: What I am saying is, a guy in NJ got caught pointing a laser at a plane cockpit while it was on final. He was arrest and ought to be charged.... John is saying because nothing happened, he shouldn't be arrested. I say fuck that, it was this guys intent to disrupt the pilot! THrough the bastard in jail. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty -
That's not what the article itself says: Ok, read what you posted ... Notice the speculation. "lead operations in, say, Syria," Not exactly factual, instead the writers speculation. I don't buy it, because puting any troops in Syria or Iran is a basic declaration of war. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

weirder than a man pushing a stroller......that's for sure. Would you really call it a Birthday Party though? ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

Well, First of all, this used to go on in the US and USSR all the time. Wouldn't be a new thing if it happened in the US. Also, no US troops would cross into syria or Iran. They would be Iraqi's trained by the US. I could never understand why we banned assasination. I say bring it back!!!!! ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

What if you went out today, got drunk, drove home and crashed into a school bus full of kids, killing many of them? Gosh, we better arrest you right now before it happens! We shouldn't punish people based upon "what if's" - anything could be true in a "what if". The standard should be what actually happened. And in this case, what actually happened, is very minor. WTF are you talking about Dude? Did you read my posts? I am makeing references to a GUY caught pointing a laser at a jet!!!! So, he shouldn't be arrested? His intent was to disrupt the pilots vision. In my business, when ever I walk into a facility, there is a sign on the door that makes it pretty clear what the consequences of screwing around with AT or ATC are. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty -

yup... read the article I posted. I was wrong, it was a US soldier on a canadian Helo. And for political reasons the US Government wouldn't blame the russians. The article says it was a range finder laser. All lasers can cause damage. Intensity and time of exposure will determine that damage. We have a laser we fire to test the distance of the moon every few days... If that thing hits you, you will vaporize . I agree a handheld laser won't do too much, but IMO this guy should get serious time. He was aware of what he was doing, and aware of the consequenses. What if the pilot temporarily got confused and crashed... killing him or people on the ground? ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty -
No.... By the way, anyone know the guy who's suing details to make this a class action suit? you say no.... care to elaborate? Just for the sake of open minded discussion? ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

Does anyone remember not to long ago a US military helicopter was taking pictures of a Russian ship which was tracking a US submarine in US waters.... Anyway, the russian ship pointed a laser at the helicopter, and it permenantly blinded the Pilot. The pilot try to get lifetime disability from the US Government, but they refused it because they would have to admit there was a russian spy ship in US waters, something they wouldn't do. This Idea of blinding people with lasers has been around for awhile.... ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty -
no, I don't think he was making my point exactly either, though, there is some overlap in views. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

When we as a society stopped taking responsibility for our own actions, and began to blame everyone but ourselves for our problems. It is a sad copuntry when no one can stand up and take the rap for their own actions.... Guy shoots girl, guy goes to jail, guy sues gun company for making the weapon!!!!! Yup.... It is the gun companies fault. Woman eat fastfood, woman gets fat and dies of a heart attack, family sues fast food joint.... See where I am going with this? ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

sad but true.... I would much rather take that 350mill and give it as a reward to our soldiers for fighting and sacrificing... F*** the rest of the world and its opinions, and F*** all the enemies of the state that are here. As this guy points out, there are many among us who hate and fear this country, and will never see the good it does. What a miserable life to have. ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty

Dropzone.com is not exactly claiming to be a reputable new agency...... Or did something change I was unaware of? Keep spinning though... It is fun to watch! ----------------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is more important to protect LIFE than Liberty
