    That post was in reference to your post about multiple languages. Did you know that during WW1 on the eastern front the Russians would always attack in Austrian held territory instead of German (because duh). Anyway there was a fortified city in Austrian territory that had been besieged by Russian forces. Now every day the Austrian leadership in the city would issue their orders of the day which isn't anything unusual, except in that city they had to issue those orders in 14 different languages. Of course this would make trying to make adjustments or any sort of spontaneous action by their force impossible because of the language barriers. I just thought you'd find that interesting in light of your post. Such can be the problem when your base or your forces are "all over the place", as it were.

    That's a great point. Plain language can no longer be used because every tribe has different definitions for words one would think have a single consistent meaning. There is so much code out there now.

    Uh, you just trolling or did you not understand the point of the chant?

    Since father Khan gave his speech at the DNC, the pocket Constitution is selling through the roof, entering the top ten on Amazon. Oh, the irony that this little man is the one to finally hurt Trump.

    I agree. I've been waiting for Trump to really step in something that he can't shake off his shoe. This might be it.

    Hearing Obama defend the ransom payment vs Hillary defend the emails is like night and day. Obama is really good at this and Hillary is just awful.

    The best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is to make sure he doesn’t get a gun.
