Biden was correct for originally not wanting to shoot the Chinese balloon down.

With all due respect, have you thoroughly thought this situation through entirely? You understand Chinese culture of "saving face" right? Even if it was just a kite, to not act sends a message. This wasn't a.Canadian balloon, it was.Chinas, half a world away.

WTF did you Trudeau Marxists do when the balloon flew into and over Canadian sovereign airspace?
Hug your mommy's?? 's.

 

[Godboy]

China has dozens of satellites in space circling the earth with powerful telescopic camera's that can read the license plate on a car. They already know the locations of our airbases and nuclear missile silos.
So most likely it really was just a weather data gathering balloon that had gone astray.
But the whole Chinese balloon situation turned into a political hot potato.
When the tard media and the American people were transfixed on the so called enemy spy balloon for 4 days and demanding the administration do something.
Basically, forcing Biden to finally order the balloon shot down using a $137 million dollar F-22 firing a $600 thousand dollar missile.
Making the entire U.S. government and military look like bumbling idiots. ...

No, they waited for it to get over water so they could retrieve and study the components. Biden had nothing to do with this, other than signing his name.

Biden is NEVER right in anything!

....and that's all I will say here.

Ok, armchair cowboy drifter! You do know so much more about what should have been done than the Pentagon and our Intel Agencies etc!

The problem is Dementia wouldn't have done a thing about it had the public not known and were criticizing him for not doing anything. When that happened it was already in the continental US in Montana over our military silos gathering information. Acting immediately, it could have been shot down over rural Alaska with nobody in danger. Even the Governor of Montana stated there is plenty of open vacant areas in his state where it could have been shot down safely.

The debris from shooting it down left a 7 mile long debris field..

China spy balloon: US Navy releases photos of debris

The suspected Chinese surveillance balloon was shot down over the Atlantic on Saturday.

sports.yahoo.com

So, a few people could have been killed, even in Montana's scarcity of citizens.

And where would the missile that shot it land?

It went right through the balloon, off in to the abyss in to the ocean, but on land in Montana the risk was higher, to cause harm to Montanans.

America does not suck! ( As you wish it clearly did!)

The debris was spread out that far because the water took some of it out. On land it probably would have been less than a mile.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

For a spy balloon, it certainly wasn't very covert.

It didn't need to be. This is the United States, China's lap dog. No one ever expected a demand to shoot it down. As it is, employee Biden made sure the balloon completed its mission. And we know it wasn't a weather balloon. It has no weather instrumentation on it.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

And IF the debris kills someone on the ground, then you'd be asking for Murder Charges for Biden.

They knew about it several days before he did anything. It's a balloon, not a F-15 fighter plane. Even if anybody was in the area, they could have planned to shoot it down where it was evacuated hours earlier.

Excuses are like assholes, everybody has one.

 

[beautress]

I was kinda agreeing with some of your post.
Until you called bozo Biden "competent". ..

Outta the park, Sunni Man!

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

What the fuck do you care whether China saves face or not?

And he did act. First they jammed the electronics so that it was just a big balloon, then he shot it down once there was no danger of anyone on the ground being hurt or killed.

Some of the components weighed a couple of hundred pounds. The debris field would have been the equivalent of 15 football fields. What if a piece went through the windshield of a car, killing a baby? What would you wingnuts be saying then? You'd have a party in your pure joy at being able to blame President Biden for recklessly endangering Americans while you danced on that baby's grave.

You know it, I know it, everyone knows it. And that's why no one takes your whining seriously. You're only pissed because Biden is competent and not a complete fuck-up like Trump.

Yeah, Biden is confident. The man can't ride a bicycle without hurting himself. He tries to shake hands with invisible people on stage. I'm sure our enemies were laughing their asses off since this was reported. Some probably threw parties.

Face facts: this was not only a spy balloon, but a trial balloon for Dementia and like everything else he's handled since invading the White House, he failed miserably.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Look at your outrage for shooting it down.
Imagine your outrage if we had let it float away over the Atlantic.

Once it hit the Atlantic what's the difference? They got whatever it is they sent that thing here for. He might as well let it fly away at that point.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

China meant for it to be seen.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

If the U.S. government had just let the balloon pass on thru without taking any action. Would have allowed the Chinese to "save face" for letting their weather balloon go astray.
But we slapped the Chinese in the face by shooting it down.
They won't forget this national insult towards them.
And in the future if we ever happen to have an aircraft accidentally fly over even one foot of Chinese territory.
They will quickly blast it out of the sky and say, now we are even.

They would blast it out of the sky no matter what. As much as we all hate Xi, you can't say he isn't a real leader like we can about Dementia.

And leftists believed that too. But a country doesn't threaten their largest trading partners that are nuclear armed with retaliation for shooting down one of their weather balloons.

Ray From Cleveland is doing his "RWI" typical response.
Well Done Ray.

Q: Would you prefer they shoot it down over Montana, risking Humans?

Like I said, since the population in Montana is so thin, it would only take a couple of hours to evacuate an area ten miles diameter. What about the swimmers, fishermen and boaters in the Atlantic who were out there?

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

No fishermen? It's the highest commercial fishing area in the USA. OUR military and Pentagon, knew exactly what they were doing....but armchairing is fun eh? Continue on....with your fun and bashing of the U.S.

Butbutbutbut fisherman!

Oh RayRay.

Your ability to "SPIN" is duly noted.

Swimmers........?????????
12 Miles out into the Atlantic.
Holy Shit RayRay, your spin is affecting your reality.

You never seen people jump off the boat and swim for a while? I had friends I used to go fishing with and they did it all the time.
