I haven't been shot - and chances are that I never will. Because guns are so limited in Denmark Quote:

Sorry if the above paragraph was a bit rambling. Quote:

Bosnia - again plenty of hunting rifles - which were used by both sides in the civil war - but again not much use against armor (see Srebenitza(sp?)). Slovakia - I don't understand - Slovakia have only existed as a nation since 1992 - and have never been involved in any fighting. Holland - did fight during WW2 - and was run over by a vastly supirior enemy. Quote:
Guns? - Try 'nukes' - again

How likely are France and England to nuke their own territory? The international community kind frowns on that. Theyd have to rely on a more converntional means to repel invaders. More likely to see India and/or Pakistan nuke eachother.
I asked the question about how many guns were woned in France when the Germans invaded because I honestly didnt know. Ok so they owned guns and were unwilling to fight. Not my fault. And a deer rifle in the hands of a civilian is just as deadly to infantry as it is in the hands of a soldier. The civilian has to be just as willing to die in defense of his country as the soldier is. And as you stated that wasnt the case in France. Thank you for your timely info.

And no - England and France won't nuke themselves - but they'll have the opportinity to use their nuclear weapons against attackers. To demonstrate the French's willingness - during the cold war they had some of their weapon permanently pointed as West Germany - in order to hit any coventional forces that the Warsaw-pact might have uses to invade Western Europe and destroy them before they would have reached France. And yes - I'm worried about another possible conflict over Kashmir

[/qb][/QUOTE]Are you telling us that Texas is not a success? I blame George W! [img]smile.gif[/img] [/QB][/QUOTE]
PMSL @Donut Texas is quite a success I think they should succeed from the Union and become an independent nation again. I know its never going to happen but its something to hope for [img]smile.gif[/img] Something about all this well equiped militia stuff, its called the national gaurd and for some reason the national guard gets called to duty by the federal government in particular for overseas conflicts and that in itself contradicts what the state militia was established for. The State Militia is supposed to be for the state governor to call to duty in times of invasion by hostile forces, disaster, or civil unrest. Any thoughts on this peoples??

Well - you could argue that the deployment of national guard forces in fx. Afghanistan helps to keep USA a safer place, by helping to stamp out terrorism.
