    >So there wasnt a war Before you got attacked?

    There was no war for us. We don't run the world, despite what some people here think. All we can do is decide FOR OURSELVES if we are going to fight.

    >Tell that to the english in london who where getting blanket Bombed
    >every day for a month... While you sat back and watched...

    I think some study on what we were sending to England during that time is in order.




    True true..... but still waiting on you to enlighten us why it wasn't politically motivated???????

    Thats a HUGE statement to make and then give absolutely no explanation... Are you trying to say there was no political motivation after perl harbor and you joined the war just because you got attacked.....

    Thats pretty ignorant!

    >I'm not sure how WWII can be considered not politically motivated.

    We entered it because we were attacked.

    In your expert opinion tell us how ww2 STARTED and then explain how it WASNT politicly motivated....

    Actually dont try cos if you do.... you will just get ridiculed .....

    Commonly, people believe World War 2 started in 1939.... On August 31, Hitler and the Nazis staged a Polish attack on a minor German radio station in order to justify a German invasion of Poland. On September 1, Hitler declared war on Poland stating one of his reasons for the invasion was because of "the attack by regular Polish troops on the Gleiwitz transmitter."

    How was that NOT politically motivated?????? Love to hear your response........

    That's not the purpose of war. The purpose of war is to destroy your enemy. We won the war in Hiroshima by obliterating it, even if that is not a desirable state to leave it in.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Thats why the death count is still rising???



    no, that's your failure to read the previous few posts.

    And sorry, your idealism is flat out wrong - there are often winners in war. Review US expansionism during the 19th Century when it took the southwest from Mexico and Florida from Spain.




    Idealistic????.....YOU my friend are Idealistic if you think its that black and white.


    And what are you talking about TAKE florida from spain..... I hope you dont think just cos im from a tiny little island im an idiot..... They sold it to you ....

    A Spanish government with no support from spain little to no reinforcement...... freebooters the french and even some pirates had already had a go at them over the last few decades... and then a lot of the people you killed going in where Indians who you had chased off there land or runaway slaves that you bought from Africa....so you won but still lost men and managed to scatter the remaining free indian tribes... Congratulations.....



    But even if now America is victorious flags are waved ( Again) in the streets....Stability is returned......America WINS!!

    Ask all those soldiers who cant get a nights sleep without waking up in a cold sweat...Haunted by the bodies they have seen....friends they have lost....how they feel about the "WIN"

    Ive met quite a few of these people ( my uncle being one )and can imagine the look on his face as you tell them but we "WON" wasnt it all worth it....


    The only people who i see win in wars are the people that dont give a fuck about anything but MONEY and POWER!

  7. Ok.... Im one of those weird people who do not have a credit card and
    I wanted to get Camera armor for my 400d....

    Finally got the search right and found the sight but i cant contact the company through e-mail or phone...and its expensive to try:S...

    Does anyone know anyone who stocks this product or a similar one in OZ? ... Any help would be greatly appreciated:)

    The US lead forces invaded and took Bagdad fairly easily. It is well equiped and trained for that. It won the war in nothing flat.





    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Thats why the death count is still rising???


    It loses its competitive advantages as an occupying force where you no longer have the option of bombing flat any suspect building.



    Suspect of what???? MAYBE having troops inside but.... o no .....it was an orphanage.... To bad!!!!


    There are no winners in war...... Just People who dont loose as much as the other!!!!!

    If China ever comes to the point where they get ready to militarily force Taiwan to submit to their will, I hope them chinese gook bastards get hit by a giant earthquake worse than the one that hit them yesterday. They won't be in a mood to fight for Taiwan then. :P




    Even in jest bro...... Thats just ign'ant.....

    I don't think it has the capability in the current situation. To tied up elsewhere. More likely that if they did they'd do their best to drag Australia, New Zealand and the UK into the fray.
    I think Australia would and so would NZ but I think there would be massive outcry. Not sure if the UK would but most likely yes.



    Don't know how easy it would be to get Aus to get into fray? Rudd is pretty hell bent on getting strong economic ties with China... Damn he even speaks mandarin ....and if the choice came to going to war with america AGAIN for no real gain.....Good luck


    As for NZ....:D:D:D:D....couldn't see it happening.... Probably SAS units and that would be it.....

    And what about all the chinese in the US, Australia, UK..... You guys are afraid of a few Terrorists????... You really think they would all sit back if you declared war China? Are you going to put them all into camps?...

  • Ive had fun with Atmo but seriously... If you keep making all these comments and showing pictures on your web sight that are not scientifically sound people just wont take you seriously.

    A guy called Isaac Newton had some interesting ideas on the subject.....But of course.... he'd never tried Atmo :P....But im sure he would have changed his mind after trying this much safer much more sociable way of flying:S

    . If you cannot succesfully teach a student to participate in things as simple as pulling a ripcord or flaring it says something about your abilities. And if it is "madness" to give your student access to a drogue release, then why do the manufacturers condone such a practice? (And even design the equipment with this in mind).

    That said, I agree with you on one point. It is all about risk assesment. And if you lack the ability to succesfully train a student in simple tasks, then your approach is the right one.



    If tandems are just there for the ride ( not doing a tandem as part of getting a license, which is probably why the manufactures condone it?) why would you EVER let them do something like opening for you..... or FLARE for you??!!!?....isnt this is just looking for trouble?

    Do many TM's let people do this?

    And buttering toast is a simple task!!!!... Having to land a parachute for the first time on your first jump with someone strapped to your back..... NOT so simple

    If people wanted more responsibility during the dive surely they should do a course and start there license?.... I have seen a lot of TM's in NZ and OZ and they seem to give all the instruction needed (body position ect...) and then spend time talking to the person explaining more about the jump as they go.

    Ive booked a hell of a lot of skydives for backpackers as well, and i can say that most of them dont really care about anything more than getting out of a perfectly good airplane at altitude and going for a ride:)
    But a TM is still an instructor.... If you didnt instruct people how to get out the plane, arch lift there legs.Im guessing ou wouldn't last long?

  • Here in the US (at least where I live), intersections that have red lights place them at the intersection. You can see them well in advance of arriving at the intersection. Yet, there are still people who drive through red lights. To make things worse, they have even been through a testing process to ensure that they know how to respond to red lights, and where to look for the red lights.




    And I have never said this would STOP all the scams on this sight but it WOULD reduce them! So YES people will still drive through the red light........

    BUT ONCE AGAIN LET ME EXPLAIN......

    On this sight the red light is NOT at the intersection(using the same analogy:)
    I AM TRYING TO GET THAT LIGHT MOVED!!!!!!!

    UNDERSTAND???!!![:/]


    I would have never thought in my wildest dreams that such a simple suggestion would have kicked up this much off a stink. Or that so many people would put up so much resistance.[:/]

    Yea well I'm not the one on here crying out to have someone else be in charge of keep you morons from being ripped off from your own stupidity, it's people like you guys & gals who NEED AAD's in the sport today to keep you from being dead due to your lack of situational awareness.

    Maybe you can get your mama to hold your hand when buying online.

    aaaahhhhhhh.... The good old personal attacks:D


    First of all by "you morons" ... Im guessing your calling me a moron??? Why???? I haven't been ripped off and all ive done is try to give an idea to stop more..... If you knew me at all you would know that i defiantly aint no moron!!!(but you dont know me do you??)




    Next time if you want to Personally attack me you might want to try......


    -The size of my ears
    -loosing hair (Probably not as much as you but im still sensitive about it)
    - broke up with my missus not long ago ( you could probably say it was because i was no good in the sack if you wanted??)
    - i lost a back tooth and im a bit self conscious about it
    - im from New Zealand and like to fuck sheep



    Take your pick!


    I wont attack you though mate ......you have obviously gone through
    enough in your life already to turn you into a bitter, unhelpfull old man whos only input into this whole forum has been critisisim!!!!



    :)
    This technique coupled with a few of the weak spots i mentioned earlier you should put you on the right track for getting a rise out of me:D

    Have fun!!!
