That's right, somebody is going to invade us eventually. We still don't know much about the people of this world or what they're capable of - coexistence is way out of the question. Buy a lot of guns, lock your doors, and watch out for them mexicans - ol' grampa willy from WWII says they're an awnry bunch. :) I like how my half serious words about defense contractor bloat (white collar welfare) are twisted around to meaning that I don't appreciate defending our country. It fondly reminds me of when people would say they don't support a war, it was turned around on them by the chicken hawks as meaning they don't support the troops.
