I joined the USAF.
But while I was in the UK, I respected their customs, their laws.
DB thats the way the cookie crumbles in most nations.
The law of the land is the colour of the day, else, well, we know what happens when we take them away...
I think you made the correct choice, all the same, given the somewhat diminished nature of our beloved RAF compared to the likes of the 1980s strength...

Back on topic, I guess the democrats want to crush anyone who doesn't think like them and are panicking because of their loss of contrived power built along racial lines.
Who would have thought that democrats would be pro-segregation, again.
You must develop the ability to be disliked in order to free yourself from the prison of other people's opinions.

I think we should make Cuba our 51st state.

Would that not violate Cuban sovereignty and international law?

Hearing Rubio speak about it one would think he knows the hearts and minds of the people there. I don't know much about it to really have an opinion except to say that depriving people of gas/oil, electricity and everything else that goes along with that, which put them into a suffering mode, could possibly cause desperation and them running to the invaders who put them in that position in the first place, then step in afterwards claiming they are there to save them.

I mean, you could be correct, but the thing about causing suffering, desperation, and despair is that people tend to remember who hurt them...
Additionally, who's going to pay to fix the mess that is Cuba?
That would be the American people as far as i can establish, and Cuba is broke...

Maybe the people have a gauge as to who hurt or is hurting them the most and will go for the lesser evil.

Or maybe they will be united and go for any invader's throat...

I don't know, maybe Rubio knows their hearts and minds, maybe he is delusional (?)

I think you need to be either delusional or willing to accept other people's delusions if you wish to work in that administration and keep your job...
