Well freezing their bank accounts, locking them off from any outside financial support… simultaneously not allowing them to gain or go in any form of government assistance…. While still having bills to pay and mouths to feed. Promise them to turn it all off if they “simply stop protesting.” Yeah that would do it. Funny because I’ve seen plenty of hyper liberal slanted people get all sorts of offended when conservatives suggest turning off welfare checks for anybody caught protesting/rioting. It’s the same kind of forcible way to stop an action. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I mean sure, but some of us are old enough to remember when the Air Force said auto land for a Predator was impossible and the Navy said there is no way you could safely bring a drone aboard a carrier. It’s gonna take effort no doubt. Meanwhile we are busy trying to figure out what will be best to drop bombs in Toyotas with. The bigger thing is as bad AI and drone autonomy may mess up now… the pink component in the jet trying to dodge/duck/dip/dive umpteen threats while dealing with weather, worrying about fuel, where the hell is my wingman, What was that last radio call, and put steel in target…. It won’t do any better. There is only so much that bio organic computer in the cockpit can process it doesn’t matter how optimized the displays are. We are a few years out from seeing real wide scale tactical level fielding of directed energy weapons and dealing with an enemy that enjoys precision and depth in targeting that used to be our sole domain who is actively embracing AI augmentation in its targeting/decision cycle… Start spending and researching now so in 6-9 years when the bill comes due we can send the robots.

Dude you don’t get it. The media will paint whatever narrative they want despite what visual aids are available. Downtown cities torn up, burned up, looted. Police presence deployed in riot kit actively having to deal with violence… oh we can call that anything but riots. Mostly peaceful protests, yeah that works… Bunch of pictures of rednecks in semis with no real examples of damage or violence by any of the group… label those bastards as extremists. They are telling us we are stupid and we have to believe what they tell us because we can’t figure out for ourselves. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You should. The unbridled white washing of any group deemed undesirable by the so called 4th estate should terrify anybody. You could readily be called a terrorist or threat to National security simply because whoever the hell “they” are at the time decide you are one. We’ve got a long history of that on both political parties. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s where local AI backup and autonomy would kick in… There is a spectrum of autonomy between remote control drones that go stupid and only do what they are preprogrammed to do and the autonomous metal killing machines herding mankind into camps once we turn SkyNet on… If we want to compete with the ever shortening collection/decision/coordination/action sequence of events any next war will be fought in we are going to need to get comfortable with the idea of the machines making a lot of their own decisions.

Jesus Christ… Dude you’ve got political leaders and people representing the media using inflammatory terms like extremists, terrorists, anti-government, talking about threats of violence, etc… Show us one overturned cop car or burned out building as the result of this protest. Anybody smart enough can see just how easily and readily the media narrative will paint your actions to suit its ideology. Half a downtown neighborhood is on fire and looted = “mostly peaceful protests.” An bunch of truckers park rigs on a bridge and wave flags and signs = “right wing extremist science deniers.” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anybody trying to use this as some sort of example of inept actions or unsuitable conditions for invasion have never worked with tanks. Go to any field problem any time of year at any US Army installation with tanks… you’ll find them stuck in shit you can’t imagine. Nothing gets stuck like a tank. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You said your “friend the Hornet Airboss guy” heard it with his own ears and relayed that to you. That’s your original posts, reading like it’s your statement and your 2nd hand info. Only later are you suddenly “not in the Navy.” You don’t get to now try and represent it as something else, you started a thread for the explicitly toxic purpose of reporting BS tied to a political third rail that is vaccines, and you did it using an event that injured 7 and damn lucky didn’t kill anybody. This is an aviation forum full of professional military aviators who serve a function of vetting the noise out of those misrepresenting themselves or the facts under a color of professional coverage. That kind of nonsense doesn’t stand here. This is not F’ing Reddit. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The Illuminati doesn’t believe in teaching people to use video editing software… They contract out to the Lizard people for that stuff. Deep State!

“Most successful airlift in history” Bro. Get with the narrative. Also the 3rd time in History we’ve used the CRAF. And don’t forget every well thought out plan involves activating the Global Reaction Brigade as a primary plan of action. That’s not State getting in over it’s head and hitting the, “F it! DOD activate!” Button because they dropped the ball. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Considering the number of air medevac flights that respond to motorcycle accidents per capita of motor vehicle accidents in general, I’d say your point is F’ing ridiculous. Every highway motorcycle accident I can recall responding too involved calling out life flight. That’s a pretty significant commitment of a very Low density high demanded cost intensive resource for the medical system to simply absorb without issue. Seems the safest thing to do to protect that critical capability for the collective rest of us is simply ban the damn things….. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

No, but we all pay higher insurance premiums because of the accepted presence of them on the roadways. That’s the point… they exist, and the rest of us get on with our lives with the unacknowledged risk they present. We similarly don’t preclude people from receiving EMT care because they were thrown clear of a motor vehicle crash when the law specifically told them wear their damn seatbelt. They get a bed in the ER regardless. Yet we can find no shortage of people calling for the UNvaccinated to be refused or at the very least out prioritized for any care… that’s some social score status China style triage from the same people that called Death Panels not a thing.

Cloth masks are a show of solidarity and little more. At this point those “minor inconvenience” events are the equivalent to ordering the Diet Coke with your extra big ass nacho and burger. More to the point the amount of people incorrectly using barrier systems like rubber gloves create more risk than simply distancing or avoiding social situations. Every moron boldly walking around in rubber gloves spreads risk because lost of the dirty nasty stuff out there lives longer on neoprene than on your fingers. The system is designed to protect you from what you’re immediately touching that is dirty, then be thrown away. Instead those groups are actually increasing risk while taking an active “deterrent” using it incorrectly and engaging in normal activities. We could tell people screw masks, stay out of the grocery store in your own damn car and use our new app. That would have been safer than watching Americans use masks wrong, touch things with gloves on, and then take their vegetables home and spray bleach on them… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Covered in the NDAA they pass yearly. Which is part of the problem since we seem to slip further and further right as far as date the thing gets passed through Congress and signed by the President. Lines of funding are worked out afterward, so although a bonus may be authorized to say 35k, the total allotted funding for the program may only exist to pay a portion of the available service members. The last two years the Army aviation bonus has run out of funding around the start of Q4. It pays to be in the front of the line if you’re going to pull the trigger on it.

I’m sure roles reversed with a Democratic Senator demanding to know if any federal agency elements were in place during a riot as a BLM member would be totally legit to the same people complaining about Cruz and others questions. If FBI agents had been say active members in encouraging the CHAZ riots it would of course be a problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Trump was routinely calling for (correctly) NATO partner nations to get off their collective asses and use their economic capability to fund a viable military parity to the threat they were all facing… He was lambasted in the press for that while they stroked themselves off to Justin Trudeau’s wearing socks with the NATO flag on it. The PM of Canada… Canada that NATO partner that still lacks a viable front line fighter to contribute because JT campaigned on canceling F-35, and start a years long delayed fly off competition that might have them still buy F-35s a decade later…. Merkle’s legacy should be leaving the strongest economic power in Europe with a military so devoid of ready capable forces. You hear zero criticisms of that that kind of thing. But plenty of shade over the last 4 years any time Trump did or said anything about NATO. Now the chips are actually needing to be played, the guy in the seat responsible for our a foreign Policy is punting on decision making to an organization given a free pass at floundering for years, and not a criticism at it from our friends in the media. Yeah… I’m sure Trump would be receiving the same kind of friendly take on saying something along the lines of “it’s NATOs problem to decide.” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
