The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Are you suggesting your approval for use of a series of smaller tactical nuclear weapons where fallout is a localized phenomenon?

Read my posts again, as I was VERY clear, even using caps, that this is not something I approve of, rather something I suspect Trump would have no problem with. He should have never started this war in the first place, but this is what you get when you hand the keys of the kingdom to a middle school level bully.

use of a series of smaller tactical nuclear weapons where fallout is a localized phenomenon?

These exist? Now I am sorry I asked. I hoped for assurance that nothing exists to accomplish the total destruction of one civilization by another.

Sent this private ...

No, but thanks for trying. It's OK, I would expect to be smacked up the side of the head if I had suggested this as a good course of action. I am simply concerned that Trump thinks anything goes and wondered how much risk of this being possible there was.
