What will you be playing to celebrate?

Heh.

The canadians dont try to hard with thier military.

Who can blame them?

They are right next door to the US. Canada knows if anyone screws with them they screw with the USA. Any country that borders the USA basically has nothing to worry about, cause the USA would kick the crap outta anyone who messes with them.

I might take an occasional popshot at the canadians, but all in all, Canada is a good country, and a good friend of the USA.

Canada would probably to use those sea kings to take down aircraft if they put em in big catapults.
hehehe

Mghcanuck, you gotta love those 50 cal. rifles similar to the Barrett 82A1 a lot of the sniper platoons seem to be using these days. I saw an ad for the bolt action version that claimed accuracy out to 2000 meters. That's pretty close to Gunnery Sgt. Carlos Hathcock's confirmed kill in Vietnam.

Mghcanuck,

You are correct in what you say. And I agree, the goal of the UN is a noble one and one cannot give up that goal. Dialogue between nations usually helps to diffuse bad situations before they begin and on that level the UN works well. Hopefully, tools like the internet will open the doors to various freedoms where none existed before. Let us hope anyway.

Thanks everyone for your posts. Seems like the majority of Audiogoners are sane, even though there is a contingent that consistently hates the U.S. It's wonderful that we have free speech so that they can freely expose themselves to others.

"....a contingent that consistently hates the U.S."

ouch. Hey, at least we have not yet accused THIS President of murdering a cabinet member......
