    Well, you’re in the US, so it’s not your problem if they decide to nuke someone outside it or, say, greenlight an invasion. While I have some of my family and myself in a place theoretically attractive to nukes, and half of my other family in a country likely to be invaded. Fortunately the rest is distributed between USA and a country which, despite all the cries, is in no significant danger.

      Sorry you in fear of invasion or nuking. I don’t mean to say those in the USA will have it the worst of this happens. There is Def safety in the imperial core.

      I don’t feel the need to compete over who will have it worse, comrade. let’s just be on the same side instead🙂

      MAD is very real and will happen if America launches nukes at anyone so I think every American should be worried about our government deciding to use them.

        I’m not sure of that really working, hasn’t been tested after all. Shootouts on the streets don’t lead to everyone getting shot. So, say, US warns “everybody big” that they are nuking someplace, but don’t want to nuke anyone else. If “everybody big” are kinda fine with it, they won’t launch nukes in response. That means there’s a place nuked and no MAD.
