If I were Russian would I be rooting for my baseball team to win the World Series this October? If I were Russian, I would be a fan of hockey. I cannot stand hockey.

Post a pic of a sign with your favorite team and least favorite team with your username on it and FUAROCK or BS.

If I said my favorite team, it would betray my anonymous location. I value the anonymity this site grants.

Post a pic of ANY team's name, your username, and FUAROCK on the same piece of paper or BS.

No thank you. I do not see how that would prove anyone's nationality. Actually, none of your requests would.

So post something that would prove your presence in Amerika.

Mr.(?) louisianarebel, the link you provided labled "Fucking Magic" was a link to this story:
http://www.navy.mil/submit/display.asp?story_id=19919

The story has this to say:
"Since Sept. 4, the amphibious dock landing ship USS Tortuga (LSD 46), based out of Little Creek, Va., has been conducting search and rescue (SAR) operations in support of Hurricane Katrina disaster relief efforts.

The ship is moored at Naval Support Activity (NSA) New Orleans, where operations are being coordinated with the U.S. Coast Guard to aid, evacuate and relocate disaster victims. "

I have no doubt there was provisions made for sewage, water, and I am sure someone cleared the channel or made sure the channel was clear. I am also sure the last thing the U.S. Navy wanted to do was put a ship on the ground in the Mississippi River during disaster relief efforts. That means someone would have to go and check navigational markers to make sure they were in the right place and/or chart any discrepancies.

Of course, this is still inside a major city in the United States with access to the full resources of the United States. And even in this instance, they did not provide power to the city.

I have not argued tactics with door kickers. I do not possess such expertise and have not offered any tactical advice.

strategy with officers,

Yes. It is well-warranted. The U.S.'s so-called strategy has kept us in a state of perpetual war since August 2nd, 1990. It is time for a rethink. If the professionals have gotten it so badly wrong, perhaps it is time for amatuers to opine.

and procurment with economists.

Economists have lilttle to do with procurement. Given the state of the United States Defense Department's procurement, I think it is time for someone to say the procurement system is broken.

Because they have worked in the past does not mean they will work in the future. The United States has fought "colonial wars" for the past seventy years. What works there will not work against a better equipped, prepared, and trained adversary. The job of the U.S. military is to be ready, not for the last war, but for the next one.

They have been demonstrated to work in the best, most adventageous way for us.

Again, in wars against ill-equipped, ill-trained forces, and still the U.S. military left South Vietnam and South Vietnam felll. The U.S. military is still in South Korea. Half of that penninsula is under totalitarian rule and is starving. The U.S. military is still in Iraq fighting a war that began twenty-four years ago. In Afghanistan, the U.S. military has learned there is no winning there, as the United Kingdom and Soviet Union learned in the past.

On second thought, I wonder then, in what way have these things been demonstrated to work?

I am happy my country won the Cold War, releasing millions from the bonds of tyranny. However, just as in wars such as Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, my country did not win the peace that followed. Now Russia has a strong man in power. A strong man who has taken territory from Georgia and Ukraine. That makes me sad.

Come back when you guys want to work with us and act like a 21st century country, instead of a bunch of thugs.
Until then, go away.

Unfortunately, Mr.(?) Nick, wishing a problem to go away will not make it disappear. Wishing problems to go away is why Ukraine no longer controls Crimea.

That doesn't exist, no matter how much better you'd like to imagine Russians to be.  Russia and China simply cannot compete with the USA on any level based off nothing more than simple geography. I'm sorry Russia is mostly landlocked, too far north and doesn't get the rain it wants. Your nation's culture is very fitting considering your country's lack of resources.

I think that is a baited trap since pumpkins are indigenous to North America. if someone calls him on it he would point it out and get the chance to feel superior again. Or he is simply putting minor misteps to feed into an alter ego he has built here.

 



His postings are definitely a fabricated "persona" similar to what EXPcustom used to do. EXP would slip every now and then and actually came across as pretty normal.

personally I love some pumpkin pie... that's not what I think of when I think "American as baseball and some sort of pie"

I love pumpkin pie too. I do not like pumpkin spice lattes.

I think of baseball and pumpkin pie because of the month of October. The World Series is played in October and pumpkins and other gords are ready for harvest in/around October.

What's sad is that Shoe sidetracked the entire thread in a debate over some bullshit pseudo capability that was almost definitely not part of the design criteria nor a likely employment for the platform and many folks followed him down the rabbit hole about something that doesn't matter a lick because they want to "best" him on the internet.

Well, if I am not to be an American, according to you and your friends here, I might as well play the part, no? It gives you your twenty-four dollars worth.

First, it is "America."
Second, have the site staff trace my IP.

That would ruin your anonymity and would prove nothing, because proxies.

The possibilities are endless, if you are ignorant of ship operations. Where does the ship discharge sewage? It is illegal to discharge in port. Is the disaster-stricken area going to provide sewage services? What about clean water for the ship? It is inadvisable to for the ship's water generation systems to make water in port. Is the disaster-stricken area going to provide clean water for the ship's crew? How about security requirements as the ship is close to many desperate people? How many lights for tent cities run on Zumwalt's 4,160 volt power? If there was a disaster is there even a clear channel for the ship to navigate in?

Lack of criticial thinking ability is an epidemic on this site.

I wonder if they will be able to provide shore power in an emergency? That would come in handy for natural disasters.

Just what one wants to do in a natural disaster, put power into the grid. Your lack of critical thinking ability makes me sad.
And your posting makes the rest if us laugh. Who said anything about a grid? You could power a tent city refugee center/command post/staging area.  

THe possibilities are endless.

One problem with your line of "logic",  reality.   When I was on the Iwo Jima in New Orleans for the relief efforts, we were moored downtown.   Place was a mess.  We did everything you say should not or cannot be done.

I have not shot .22lr in almost three years due to the high cost. However, people are free to make money as long as it is within the law. I sincerely hope they declare the income for tax purposes and are not free-loaders.

No. Do you know the difference between Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief and Defense Support of Civil Authorities?

It is wonderful the information one can find on the Internet.

As a result, early this week the Vinson will receive up to 100,000 special 2- and 5-gallon water "bladders," collapsible containers that will make the transportation of such enormous volumes of liquid more efficient. If the Vinson could actually move all of its 200,000 excess gallons to Haitian distribution points each day, it could as much as double the present amount of water aid, which relief agencies and military helicopter pilots alike say is being used up faster than they can deliver it. That in turn would allow donor governments and organizations to turn more of their efforts toward augmenting other critical necessities like food, medical supplies and, later on, long-term help like building materials.

Jesus, do i have to draw a picture?

See my previous response.  Your monitoring needs some work.
