We have nukes, so why shouldn't they be able to have them?

Because your not scared of dying.

I'm pretty sure anyone likes to have a deranged Asian overlord hanging over his shoulders with a nuke in control.

It matters to South Korea, who doesn't have nukes.
N. Korea is a communist country. S. Korea isn't. They both hate each other.

Why should I be?

Even if North Korea was retarded enough to attack the US, they definitely wouldn't hit anywhere near where I live.

And even if they were planning on attacking some weird-ass place that doesn't make any sense to hit, the chances of them choosing an area near me are so unlikely given the size of the country.

So, in conclusion, North Korea would have to be retarded to attack the US, and even if they did, I'd be safe anyway.

Nobody wants to bomb Canada. Come here.

Desert_Eagle · 10-8-2006, 10:35 PM

You're lucky nobody cares about crud for anyone else, because I like that feeling of security hanging over me.

I'm in NY.

Decent Spot, plus winds would bring it over : (

Anyways, it goes against the Nuclear Non-Proliferation acts, and is therefore illegal.

ROFL. Yeah, those are some really good reasons to not care.

It's not about being 'retarded'. It's about scaring people. The more power they have to control people's emotions, the greater leverage they have over anything they may deem important to them.

Also, for those who are interested, the strongest known ICBMs that North Korea has (that I remember off hand) can hit Hawaii, Alaska, and most of the West Coast of the USA.

This is a very bad situation that's just going to get worse, assuming everything is true.

A little late to develop a nuke, you know.

Good thing most countries have missile defense systems now.

A nuke that explodes over an ocean won't do much.

Grandiagod · 10-8-2006, 11:22 PM

Now they just have to wait another decade or two so they can get the technology to fit a bomb into a ballistic missle.

Because radiation doesn't affect things like ecosystems or anything.

Also, Afro, you disregard for human life is disgusting. You, sir, are full of bullsh*t.

Thank God for Yuri. His technology has allowed us to spam Gatling Cannons along the entire Californian coast.

**itmorr** · 10-9-2006, 12:07 AM

There are lots of cows and bombs for them to nuke where I live. They probably want to nuke the cows more than the bombs though.

*fix'd

This is just a way to get the world's attention. Do you think anyone actually paid attention to what Afghanistan would say or do and take them seriously before they got nuclear weapons? Having these weapons is just giving them more of a voice in the world and now they'll be taken more seriously. They can't hit any serious, as in government, buildings with these yet. They didn't develop these to fire at America, if they're planning on using them at all it's to use on South Korea.

Is this a threat? Yes, very much so, and this is the kind of attention they want. But it's not like other "hostile" countries don't have nuclear weapons either. Russia, Afghanistan, and soon Iran will all have "WMD's" but no one's used a nuclear warhead on another large scale country in years. There is world laws and agreements in place to try and prevent this sort of thing as much as possible. Though, yes a crazy maniacal asian man could pretty much open then world ending war, it probably won't happen for at least another ten years.
