So....you agree with me and just want to frame it like you're right and I'm wrong. Lol.

So you're saying we face the same threat today from smuggled nuclear warheads, with state of the art detection equipment and methods, as we did 30 years ago?
You seem to have a problem with your short term memory. Go re-read your own statements and questions, which I answered for you.
I am not agreeing with you. I am showing you that there still is a threat, which you questioned in your previous statements.
We have state of the art detection methods for smuggled drugs, illegal aliens, etc, yet still are unable to stop the unending tide of them. Do you believe that it is impossible to smuggle weapon components into the US, including weapons grade plutonium and uranium? Are you so disengaged that you believe that the US hasn't already prepared to do the same in Russia, and other countries as well?

Back on the original topic - since you appear to think that our military doesn't really contribute to the citizens in our current times, what have you personally done to protect any citizens of the country? Have you ever been under fire from a foreign enemy? Have you ever put yourself in harms way? Have you every even trained to prepare for such a possibility? Our servicemen have trained, prepared, and performed - and that is everyone that enters the military. What have you done to be in a position to diminsh their service to protecting YOUR family?
