To use your own words you insinuated it and are just now trying to split hairs to prove that somehow South Korea hasn’t been defending the DMZ since the armistice. Speaking of which since there was only an armistice signed and not a peace treaty, the MDT signed does mean the US would provide continuous support until…

And you’re point is? The US didn’t prevent S Korea from improving their military capabilities. In fact, we invested heavily into it. Also every country let N Korea develop nukes since no one stepped in to stop them.

Idk I have had to pass numerous protests outside of Planned Parenthoods and its usually evenly split between male and female.

Well if you have an addictive personality you can literally get addicted to anything: drugs, booze, religion, driving fast, working out, war etc. So yeah you can say limiting exposure to drugs will help, so would limiting their exposure to pretty much anything.

Of course they would be in on it since they haven’t been able to do anything with this land since they bought it in ‘06. But guess what they also supported the original Ovation development and we saw how that went. There’s a lot more that comes into play for these projects than just support.

So yours just happen to be closer for some people. Still doesn’t negate my “equal to or better” stance

I can’t say anything about the FC stadium because it’s too early in the process, but I can tell you zero public money is going to the renovations to the U.S. Bank Arena. You’re making it seem like the renovations actually had any traction. I think the ownership group made two presentations to the city council. After…

I can easily turn that and say you’re being disingenuous for thinking that having US backing somehow negates SK role in defending themselves over the last 60 years. I never said that they did it without the help of the US since that is the whole point of the Mutual Defense Treaty they signed after the war.

See this is what a lot of people forget. The original and current strategy decided upon by SK, China and the U.S. has always been about containment. China wanted a buffer zone between it’s boarder and a U.S. backed ally. SK doesn’t want to see a reunification. And the U.S. was good with the stalemate because it…

Why not they have been doing this for the last 60 years and the original goal of containment still applies. The only thing that changed is now the U.S. has a president that either too dumb or too willfully ignorant to understand how international politics actually works. So I’m all for SK and China taking the lead on…

Which is right in the same spot of the Ovation mixed use development. Ya know the one that’s been talked about for the past decade. The chances are slim that that location will pan out for them.

So at what point do we get to say that the 76ers have started the Process #2. I mean is it when their original Process players sign with other teams or get traded away?

The other problems of putting it in Newport is that it most likely won’t be near the river or at least in an area near one of the bridges. And if you live in Cincinnati there’s never really a reason to head over to Newport in the first place. I like Newport but there’s nothing over there that you can’t find an equal…

To be fair the “they” in that situation is the company that owns the building and not the city council itself. The US Bank arena deal was pretty much DOA when it was presented. I think the only the city council said besides no was that if “they” wanted to invest the money the city would have no problem speeding up…

Well it was if the Cavs goal was to run LeBron out of town by refusing to spend money on talented players. I wonder how different his career would be if LeBron originally landed on a team that was willing to invest and build around him?

Honestly though if you want to see him as the GM he has been a pretty damn successful one. Other than the Warriors, what team can claim as many successes that the Cavs can?

I don’t know why everyone brings up Thompson’s contract. He deserves what he is getting paid and he got that contract because he was exactly what the Cavs needed: someone who could play high energy defense and attack the board on both ends. Also trading away Wiggins made sense because he needs to have the ball in his…

You can and I agree that you want to reduce the amount of support they get but a good way to limit their reach is to help their countries improve themselves. The best way to fight an idea is to show that there’s a better option out there. It’s sort of the reverse of what Iran did. Back in the 40's and 50's Iran looked…

Well here’s the problem with our stance on terror: the War on Terror is literally unwinnable. We aren’t fighting a country or even a single group of enemies. We are fighting an idea and the only way to kill an idea is to kill everyone who believes it. But if you do do that all you do is create more people who believe…

This man is a perfect example of way I’m religious but I hate organized religion. Can’t stand people who try to explain the world away from your narrow mindset.
