Some countries like to show off their big sticks.
No doubt.

Yankee Doodle came to town but they wouldn't let drive an M1A2 Sep sadly

Small hands, big rockets

But poor Trump will have to settle with the ugly plane

Are their little parade rockets that can seek out protestors?

Then again, DC *IS* built on a swamp. The ground isn't the best there.

You're kidding. I never knew that. So it was actually drained at one time then, for real. Good precedent. Good omen.

Eh...

I wouldn't really say it was ever fully "drained"...

Okay, so that's not entirely accurate. It's not really a "swamp" but a marshy area, or considered a lowland region.

So technically -- no, it's not a "swamp" -- but the ground isn't exactly terra firma like in other cities. It had a lot fields of reeds and mud-flat like features before it was built up.

So, no -- it's not "really" a real swamp. But it's pretty damp/wet there near the Potomac.

What is it with you lot advocating for violence on your political opponents?

That doesn't rhyme and it is not in iambic pentameter.
But I now know that your donkey reference was not what I first thought.

Tanks? Missile launchers? Where have we seen that before?

Oh yeah, that's right:

Oh man! You did better than me! I was looking for a picture just like that! Star for you!

When that image was transmitted, I hope it wasn't powerful enough to have made it very far in the galaxy. To think of the stuff we've been sending out, from WWII to I Love Lucy. It's embarrassing in the event that aliens could ever intercept it.

They would only be used for defensive purposes, Kryties.

Wasn't the area where they situated the Pentagon called the devil's hollow or something like that?

I wonder why that was..

It's not suppose to rhyme or hold reason. Just an absurd play of words lol. The previous statement was a double pun for a Messiah reference and also riding on the back of the Democratic party.

Unfortunately, the very first thing aliens are going to see if they pick up our TV transmissions is this:

Not as far as I can tell.

Were the transmitters very powerful in 1936?

I believe so. Analogue needs a much more powerful signal than Digital from my understanding, and they built things big back then.

Nah. Olympics, yes. Hitler, no. That came later.

Soon.
