The most scary place in the world

Where's Texas

Texas is actually pretty safe unless you plan on being a criminal. If you commit a capital crime though they won't think twice about hanging your ass.

Or if your political leanings are vaguely left-wing in anyway.

EDIT: The thing about North Korea/South Korea is that it has the potential to erupt into world war III. You have enough firepower there to make the peninsula a dust bowl, you have China (and that island place it wants to invade (the name has escaped me)), Japan, Russia and a not inconsiderable amount of US interests. Pretty big time bomb I think, but is the clock actually ticking?

I may have defaulted to conservativism because it "requires less thought," but at least I know the name of Taiwan.

OK, I had to take that little jab there, but now I will no longer threadjack your thread with a different one of your threads.


I think the interesting question about the whole mess is who would step up if North Korea attacked SK. Obviously, the US would eventually have to side with SK. But would China tell NK to **** off immediately, wait until the US joins SK's side, or not do anything at all?

I'm not sure whether I see how Taiwan could get involved in a war with China. It would never make any big move without support of the US first, and the only thing that the US would do in the event of a Korean war would be to side with South Korea. I don't see the PRC going to war with the US, South Korea, and Taiwan with only North Korea as an ally.

I chose Iran.

I'm the only one to vote Afghanistan?

It's a bad place people. The U.S. hasn't helped matters.

Somalia. I still harbor hope that it will be turned into a crater.

[Dis]

that's true. there are a few african countries, you couldn't pay me millions of dollars to go to those countries.

Maybe in afghanistan I could survive if I put a tablecloth on my head. You can do no such thing in africa.

Mitchell, if you can't find Texas you've more problem than I can help you through, and Oerdin, you're right.

[Odin]

I don't know about the whole world, but that's definately the scariest place I've ever seen.

For someone with your attitude, you're probably right.

Elijah's bedroom. I've seen it, and it's scary
