    Yeah, no. See the US has done this cost evaluation thing since at least the 60s, and it's always worked out that it's cheaper to leave things like M-16s behind and buy ones later on than it is to ship them home. So we can agree that, from a moral standpoint, the US should bring such things home, but those who treat economics as a religion, tend to think that leaving such weapons behind is the right thing to do.

    Economically feasible or not(and that excuse is SUCH a cop out), if you're going to lecture the country on gun control, don't leave weapons around for terrorists.

    Remember when the Obama administration gave guns to the cartels, I do.

    That's nice and all, but you need to remember that when he was Governor of California, Ronald Reagan happily agreed to ban open carry in his state, and then was glad to ship all kinds of weapons to Afghanistan when he became POTUS. After the Soviets pulled out of Afghanistan, we didn't give two shits about what went on inside that country until a certain date.

    We're the largest goddamned weapons dealer on the planet, bar none. Now, I'm sure that you and I will both agree that anything that Ukraine wants from us they should get, and we'll worry about the details later because they're fighting against a genocidal maniac. The problem is that it is politically expedient for members of both political parties to scream about "waste" once the crisis has passed. Sure, morally, we should bring every piece of military hardware home after a war but morality doesn't win elections in a society where money is considered speech.

    Wait wait... if cops fear to tread in schools, does this mean teachers could teach CRT from the list of banned books with impunity? :chris:

    That almost happened. One of the widest read newspapers in the Confederacy did such a good job of hiding the truth of the war that when Lee surrendered, it came as a total shock to the readers. Up until that point, they thought that they were on the cusp of victory.

    then someone will find themselves as the meat course.

    being all malnourished and hungry, they likely ain't much of a threat (or a meal, come to think of it) no matter how well they're armed anyway.

    Interesting that Jordan references cities but AOC jumps to states.

    What’s interesting is your complete ignorance of the relationship between the two and how one overrides the other.

    Interesting that you still make any pretence of being centrist when the only centre you have is being presented, lubed and spread open, for Republican cock.
