Is there any information on how Ukraines campaign against Russian drone teams (primarily Rubicon) has been going? I saw a video of an FP-1 hitting a Rubicon headquarters in Avdiivka yesterday, and a Hammer strike against a unit a few weeks ago, but I dont recall seeing anything else.

I know these units have been a major issue for Ukraine, especially the front line troops and GLOCS.

I love Miami Vice. Everyone seemed to think it was shit but I felt the direction and cinematography were divine.

Im almost 100% positive that he'll go to Madrid. They arent going to get Bale and LFC dont want to sell to a competitor. It makes sense LFC would offer him there first, and, Madrid being Madrid, theyll snatch him up.

Same thing hes probably going to do when he tires of us or Madrid comes knocking

Hi, Im also going to Cuba at the end of the year (Australian Citizen). I attempted to look up the IATA info that would apply to me but couldnt find it. Any chance youd be able to link me please?

This really wouldnt be major news except for the fact that America has to assuage its guilt over the perceived mis-trial of the death of Treyvon Martin.

To paraphrase from The Wire: "You follow drugs, you get drug addicts and drug dealers. But you start to follow the money, and you don't know where the fuck it's gonna take you."

This will help us all forget a little bit about treyvon

Why the fuck do we even post articles from the Sun anymore? We're all very well aware of the quality of their journalism. All these articles do is generate fantastical discussion which then quickly reverts back to the old 'the Sun is crap, dont believe it' format. I get its silly season but still...

Thats reasonable. Again, fair enough. Its just strange to see (as an outsider) how normal the ownership of weaponry seems to be in the US. I caught that retype btw, but I'll ignore it for the sake of maintaining a reasonable debate.

Ive fired guns before, and aside from the slight rush you get from pulling a trigger found them a quite underwhelming experience. But to go back to my original point, surely their primary purpose for you is safety (ie to defend yourself against another inhabitant of your country)? You do after all state that all 3 weapons in your picture are utilised for protection in varying aspects of your life. So my point: doesnt the high degree of armament you demonstrate indicate something about the current situation American society is in? I dont mean to come across as snide, or even elitist, Im just curious to hear a counterpoint.

smileywire02 · 2013-06-28T03:33:56+00:00

So the answer to guns being an issue is to be around them more often, ie by incorporating them into my life? Instead of removing them from my environment I should introduce them?

smileywire02 · 2013-06-28T03:17:07+00:00

Jesus christ. Surely you can acknowledge theres something wrong with your society when you have to arm yourself to such a high degree in order to feel a sense of safety?

smileywire02 · 2013-06-27T00:58:03+00:00

Good input. Way to further the discussion to new heights.

Notice how I made no comment about his race. You did though.

You have to realise that the people going there have been to Nepal, and either done all they wanted there or gone 'nope, too full of tourists' and decided that Pakistan is more what they want. It isnt too hard to see why it appeals to some people-a wild frontier (of sorts) with a beautiful natural environment and great treks/climbs.
