That could be considered overkill. :mrgreen:

Precisely!

 

[CalGun]

Better solution,

Where as the plight of the people of Syria is not a clear and present danger to the people of the United States we MYOB.

MYOB.

A very popular saying among the spineless.

 

[TiredOfLife]

Very pretty actually.

 

[CalGun]

Easy for someone else to fight your desired battles? I've done my share for this country, my state and my city.

Nah, there has to be some sort repercussion, as the French say.....some sort of Punishment.

I would go with these. No American or Russian Saturday Night Specials. Just the Ole Fashioned 10 paces, turn and fire.

Trust me.....they will work. :lol:

It's already rampant, to the point that people would rather others suffer chemical genocide than pay an extra 5 cents for gas.

Well, I don't want others suffering chemical genocide and I take the CTA, so don't care too much about that 5 cents a gallon, but I can think of a whole helluva lot more things to spend our tax money on than bombing another country whose governmental opposition stands the most to gain and it is that same opposition who is affiliated with and actually could be some who have attacked our country and our soldiers in Iraq.

and who is to say that a dozen or so "civilians" in Syria today that we save won't be the very one's carrying out the Syrian version of Benghazi in a year or two's time?

They are people, just like you and I. They want a better life. Dictator slaughtering and gassing them is not ok.

I'm not.....but I got the scars that go with mine.

 

[justabubba]

why is this matter not something for the UN to resolve
why does the USA have to serve as self appointed policeman?

I've 5 inches on my lower right belly, peritonitis (30% survival, no pre-surgery painkillers), among other souvenirs I'll never lose.

Yes, yes, yes, and yes. Over 7 billion on the planet? Plenty left to do something about it if our 300+ mil don't...

 

[ecofarm]

Yes, yes, yes, and yes.

You're welcome.
