Sharpshooter

Ouch. Was going for the humorous part of your nature. Got the not so humorous one.

That part was good. I legitimately laughed. Stick around. You may find common ground in your humour with others you don’t agree with. Cheers.

Let’s keep the personal name calling to zero please. I hope you don’t feel mocked. I respect your opinion even if it differs from others. Just remember that while you’re entitled to your opinion, you’re subject to counter opinions, and you may receive responses by several people that want to counter your opinion. Please keep it civil, and civility will be ensured in the responses to you. Cheers.

You ate @Ribs eh?

I forwarded it on VC, all good.

@-AJ-

I meant in that thread. Not literally here.

Hate to rain on the kink parade but… OMG rain!

Post a screenshot of your CDC post history here:

I assure you, I’m not misunderstanding. HIMARS were announced and then it took weeks for them to get into the battle. If ATACMS are authorized, it would take weeks for them to come on line. The escalation nonsense is just that. Nonsense

Again. Nonsense. Escalation? F-16’s are on the way. Abrams are on the way. Bloody nonsense.

But they HIMARS don’t have the range of ATACMS. That’s the difference. And it’s a life or death difference for Ukrainian soldiers and civilians.

Nonsense. Literally, it makes no sense.

Meh.

You made love to an American Pie?

You’re welcome, but all props to @-AJ- Vintage is back. He’s just a bit low key right now. Software updates.

I suspect it was low priority for Ribs. But, I think the closer we can make things ‘known’ as before, the better. Thanks man. You’re doing great work. Sorry for not tagging you as well.

I appreciate Trudeau taking such a ballsy stance against India. I reckon it’s two part based. First, there’s credible evidence from CSIS and other Agencies that link the Indian govt to the assassination. Modi is an ultra-religious-nationalist, that has done his utmost to be against the Sikhs in the State of Punjab. That’s what the whole ‘No Farmers, No Food’ stickers you see on hundreds of cars and trucks were in response to. Secondly, Trudeau probably calculated the political costs to the Liberal Party, as many of those of Punjabi/Sikh members make up not only his Cabinet, but also those in his caucus. I’m sure that he felt the pressure. And of course the Punjabi people as a group are one of the highest voter turnout demographic. Losing their support would be detrimental to his government staying in power, and him remaining PM. This is how the world and governments work, as you’re well aware. The fight is on. India just expelled a top Canadian diplomat in retaliation to Canada ousting one of India’s top diplomats. It will escalate further. Then, there will be some show of good-faith between the countries and nothing will ultimately be done. It’s all a show from start to finish.

Simultaneously, what an incredible answer.

I’m sure he’ll be over soon enough. He’s probably just serving a CDC timeout first.

You assume correctly. If you have attachments, posts, etc., that you want saved, copy and save them soon.

That’s huge, considering the ramifications of such a statement. Heard Canada expelled an Indian diplomat as well. We’re certainly living in ‘interesting times’.

In a nut shell, no.
