Youre really misunderstanding what declaring an actual war is or is not. Technically the US has not been in an actual declared war since WWII.

The Vietnam War, the Korean War, the Iraq wars, none of those were declared as actual war by congress. The war on drugs is just political rhetoric and has no actual legal bearing.

You cant declare formal war on drug use because drug use isnt a recognized sovereign country

Ignorant people in Mass are way more annoying too, because they speak of themselves as above ignorant people in the south or midwest even though they believe the exact same dumb shit

Of all the places Ive lived in the US, the worst ignorance was probably in Mass, because its ignorance with an extra dose of superiority complex

A lot of us dont want any of this, but also arent either the autocrat in charge, the billionaires who bought him, nor are we the military that can stop him.

As much as a lot of us would stop this immediately if we could, we also dont need to let Trump have his Tienammen Square moment. The military should have removed him the moment it was clear that he is hell bent on destabilizing our country, our region, and the world at large.

On an island with ample food sources it really isn’t all that crazy, compared to the many things I have heard of dogs surviving.

There was a dog that got lost on Saint Lawrence Island in the winter, which apparently crossed the sea ice all the way to Wales, AK over 160 miles away. I think they believe the dog managed to catch and eat birds along the way, as there was quite literally nothing else he could have eaten.

That is quite insane. I cant imagine how I would survive on foot trying to make it 160 miles away, let alone if that entire 160 miles was just barren ice

Pullen estimated more than 200 people were inside the nightclub. Also among those detained were a dozen active-duty military members who either were patrons or working as armed security. Some patrons were arrested on undisclosed outstanding warrants, Pullen said.

At this point, Im surprised we survived the first 100 days.

Any further days are just a bonus at this point

According to his math, around seven-eighths of all Albertans who just voted for the federal Conservatives would have to back sovereignty for a “Yes” side to win.

7 out of 8 people who vote conservative would have to vote for something stupid?

Welcome to America, Alberta, I guess
