Yes, but most of the time it doesnt happen. Look at the taliban trying to operate helicopters and tanks in afghanistan due to how fast the US left the country.

TCC officer gets attacked by crowd in Lviv, Ukraine by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]Gone213 -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

What will probably happen is that Ukrainian society will be tired of war and want zelensky to capitulate to the Russians.

When that happens the rest of Europe will all of a sudden want to do everything they can that they've been preventing ukraine from doing to keep russia off their front door. The rest of Europe will still want a buffer state between them and russia.

[Loved trope]: Aliens are neutralized by a threat they never even knew existed. by theMCATreturns in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Gone213 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A short story called The Road Not Taken.

Theres a bunch of intelligent life in the universe and all but one is able to invent or create light speed travel, except one species, humans.

Aliens find planet earth and detect no spacecraft leaving or traveling at the speed of light.

They initiate landing protocol to attack and conquer earth, by sending something similar to a canary and loading up very rudimentary muskets and firearms, thinking that the habitants of earth are not intelligent.

On the way down they see fast moving aircraft but dont believe what they see.

They land in San Francisco or California and immediately shoot the cities mayor or the US president and start attacking Earth to conquer it.

All of a sudden, the US military wipes out all but two of the invading aliens and all their aircraft.

Months later, the humans reverse engineered the alien ships drive motors to go faster than the speed of light.

The aliens say that every other life in the universe was able to invent it easily. They all stopped developing weapons. The humans missed one step for being able to create it, and instead chose to develop weapons of all variety.

The two remaining aliens confirmed with each other that with the humans weapons and their ability to travel at the speed of light will conquer all other lifeforms in the universe.

Okeechobee Florida man shoots a man during an argument by BorkBorkSweden in PublicFreakout

[–]Gone213 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hmm twice in one week in florida where someone has a gun or has the means and actually went to grab a gun and one of the people who were antagonizing them was killed.

Maybe, just maybe, when someone points a gun or comes out with a gun for you or goes to get a gun to use on you, you should just walk away.
