The motivation you state is not correct
Mar 29, 2018 8:22AM PDT

The motivation in reality is power for China by taking over lands, even to the point of creating them, that they have always declared to be theirs although the rest of the world said it wasn't. Kind of like Russia trying to rebuild the Soviet Union by force.

I'm failing to understand what your particular point is.....China clearly has an agenda and a point...thumbing its nose at those who oppose their actions but do nothing to stop them. I'd like to point out, although Bob will again claim 'it's in the past', who was president when China started their creation of land masses in that area and did nothing? Just like with illegal immigration.....ignoring it doesn't make the problem go away; it only gets worse, and then you have somebody else that has to deal with those consequences.

Well, of course they want to take over the world.

That goes without saying. Any sensible, red-blooded, patriotic American knows THAT. No motive required. Then they'll steal our women and rape our cattle.
You just hunker down in one of your armed rooms, little lady.

I'm trying to have a discussion

and you resort to garbage like the typical left, JP, and Bob....when you have nothing to say, you resort to personal attacks.

"You just hunker down in one of your armed rooms, little lady." (Nice JW statement that no one is supposed to take as an insult?)

Way to go with your 'credibility'.......you post babble like "Then they'll steal our women and rape our cattle." and expect what??????? as a response?

Hunkering down is your best option, and
Mar 30, 2018 9:57AM PDT

one you have adopted anyway, it seems.
You are anxious about almost everything in daily life and have told us yourself about 'a gun in every room'. "In God we trust", so we have no anxieties. Every part of modern life was prophesied and covered in the Bible, with instructions. Over eight million of us use it as a standard. Here's the part you've seen and paid no attention to: IT WORKS FOR US.
Whatever you have brings you no peace or comfort - it doesn't work to improve your life.
To you, we're the equivalent to radical Islamists, as you've told me. Given their propensity for illegal, terrorizing, brutal acts in "defense" of their god, that would qualify for a whine to the Mods, except that irrational thinking was also prophesied. Not Lee's problem, it's Jehovah's. He's tough; he can take it. [How can we be terrorists and also deserve your righteous wrath because we refuse to kill even as part of "lawful armed forces"?]
Make up your mind, or the world will soon make it up for you, and you will not like it.
In the meantime, keep them guns cleaned and loaded. I recommend a round in the chamber, full ****, safety on. Flick the safety as you draw and fire away.

Your persecution "complex" is showing.
Apr 4, 2018 1:23PM PDT

It's hard to fulfill that martyr complex when you discover you are more ignored than targeted, LOL. Reminds me of the kid that flinched in the school hallway every time the big guy at school passed him by, but had never done anything to him. Finally one day when he saw the guy flinch as he passed by, the big guy turned around and punched him to the floor. The guy on the floor asked why he'd done that. The big guy replied, "I got tired of your flinching insults in this hallway everyday".

The ignoring, and the ignorance
Apr 4, 2018 1:37PM PDT

also prophesied. Comes with the job.
'Mostly ignored'. Ever seen the numbers on that? In round numbers, approaching 8 billion people on earth, just 8 million of us. That's one tenth of one percent. Whew! Why do we even go on, for Christ's sake? ... Oh, that's why.

The 'hunker down' part I can deal with
Apr 4, 2018 2:36PM PDT

the snide 'little lady' crap is what I expect from JP and Bob.....I didn't expect it from you. Because I equate your door knocking intrusion to terrorism, even after I've told your followers repeatedly over the years to take my address out of their 'list' and been ignored, it's hard NOT to equate the two. I don't like your religion any more than I like radial bastardized Islam....but I don't see where I have personally attacked you in my posts. But feel free to continue....and go ahead and whine to Lee about my equation if you desire. I've known Lee for many, many years, usually get along quite well with him, and have been scolded more than once by him....most times that sticks for long periods of time with me. I have utter high regard for him and his decision making. If he chooses to scold again, I'm tough and can take it.....obviously your skin is much thinner than mine.
