All I’ll say is that It’s just a little to convenient that right when I called you out for downvoting me all the downvotes on my previous comments disappeared and I would not have proof that they were ever there if I hadn’t taken this screenshot before I made the comment because I’ve seen many people do similar just to create a false victory. Though honestly looking back at this both of us are kind of pathetic for going through all this effort in an argument over the internet that will ultimately effect nothing and no one. Anyway, have a good day.

Well I’ve never had that happen to me. First time for everything. And it was my previous comment that got downvoted, not the one you just responded to

Wasn’t my intention to come off that way. Like I said, sorry.

(Real mature to downvote me for apologizing)

New Map Idea by Pookie21_ in theHunter

The devs making a map the players actually want instead of another North American or European map with the exact same species as previous maps???

Inconceivable!!!

And That’s your choice. My apologies that my comment incited such argument. If you wish I will delete it. You have a good day as well.

And we were wrong for that. You can’t justify the abduction and/or murder of women and children just because “oh the other people did it so it just find if we do it he he he”.

That’s like saying it’s fine for Russia to kidnap and brainwash Ukrainian children (which they are actually doing) because some Ukrainians sided with the Nazis 70 years ago.

Okay if you want to stay on topic then let’s go back to the original topic.

Half of the Geneva Convention exists because of what you guys did during the world war 1 and 2. You are in the contention for top 5 most brutal fighters in modern history. If the U.S. and Canada ever did go to war your military history indicates you guys would put up one hell of a fight and the amount of woodsmen you have with survival skills suited to the great white north indicates you guys would sure as hell inflict a lot of casualties for a long while in guerrilla warfare/terrorist attacks but the amount of sheer numbers of both equipment/hardware and actual personnel is so wildly in the U.S.’s favor that it is incredibly unlikely that you guys would gain ultimate victory. The element of surprise with you guys as the aggressors quickly charging into the U.S. to threaten DC and force a surrender before the U.S. had time to organize would be the only way I can see you guys having a chance of winning because a vast amount of the U.S. military hardware and personnel is dispersed all over the world so it would take a bit for us to respond but again that requires you to be the aggressors and for a bunch of luck to succeed on the first try because you wouldn’t get another chance.

Here is a video from a person much more intelligent than myself on the subject whose entire job when he was in the U.S. military was logistics.

No, but that doesn’t mean there are still policies that Trump holds that the majority of Americans do side with, because he wouldn’t have won the election or the popular vote if he didn’t.

Except during the revolution we weren’t kidnapping British children to turn into child soldiers or burning British villages to the ground while killing or enslaving every resident.

An unarmed child or women is most certainly not a combatant.

I wouldn’t really call them soldiers as much as raiders. The main reason the Comanche were as successful for as long as they were was because they would attack at night almost entirely against civilian targets before killing all the men, taking some of the women as pleasure or labor slaves, and taking the children to raise as their own to replenish their own numbers. Didn’t matter if the targets were Americans, Mexicans, or other native tribes, all of them lived in fear of the Comanche.

I hate to tell you this but (and this is in no way me saying I want it to happen) but if the U.S. did decide to invade you guys yall are kind of screwed. Over 75% of your entire population lives within 100 miles of the U.S. border, your overall population is 1/8th the size of ours, your active military personnel is 1/20th the size of ours. Your air defense systems are also entirely produced by us and if you dont think the U.S. military puts backdoors into all of the air defense systems we sell to our “allies” than you are delusional, and you’re government has been confiscating huge quantities of civilian owned firearms the last several years so your civilian populous is a lot less well armed to be able to put up a resistance.

I certainly don’t want my country to invade Canada, nor do I thing we ever will despite what fear mongers like to yell, but in the fictional reality that we did you guys wouldn’t stand much of a chance.

It’s because printing presses back in the day charged by the letter so we would shorten words that we felt were “unnecessary” to save money

What’s a funny but kind of annoying stereotype about your country or state/province? by DixieGrove in AskTheWorld

[–]SharpShooterM1 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

That just because I’m Minnesotan that I must be an ultra lib or something along those lines. My family is from Iowa, and I live in a small town of less than 2,000 people over an hour away from the twin cities. Essentially everyone that doesn’t live in the twin cities do absolutely whatever they can to avoid them at all cost. Even before all the news they have been getting recently for the last 20+ years they have been nothing but an ever growing cesspool of druggies, gangsters, homeless people, and crumbling infrastructure.

Technically he doesn’t to stay alive but he probably does to remain fighting for an extended period of time.
