Okay, then Iron Dome isn't for the US. We don't have an adversary within artillery range. Iron Dome is for defense against relatively short-range systems. The US Army has counter-battery fire systems and can deploy it quickly to most any place on Earth, if needed, but more importantly, we let our dissidents petition the government so they needn't fire home-made missiles into our cities to get attention.

More like Democrats aren't afraid of all the immigrants because they know that overall, they add to the economy and are good people. Trump's rhetoric has you cowering and buying guns to cope with the "caravans" of "illegals" coming to kidnap your children. Buddy, it's not that bad. Also, undocumented immigrants have a long way to go to get citizenship and the right to vote, and even when some do, they're not a monolith of liberalism. Hispanics occupy all parts of the political spectrum.

Yeah, I guess I should defer to your superior knowledge about anti-ballistic missile defense because you know all about it. Amiright?

Defending against nukes isn't easy.

No need to make personal insults. That's how threads get locked. And while we all should be careful going out in our society, I was not judging Jocelyn Nungaray but just including facts from the articles I read. A minor drinking beer is bad but I never said she got what she deserved. And it's not clear that any president could've prevented that situation. It's not like Trump got the number of border crossings to zero and people have their own reasons for the friends they keep. Nobody is above the law and if the guys caught are convicted, I hope for appropriate sentences.

It's an OK profile. Could use a little work. The photo is poorly lighted, with the sun almost behind you and the shadow so dark, it's hard to see most of your face, and you left the text blurb area unfilled.

It seems you put your brief text blurb information in the headline, and you left the "Hi.." at the beginning. But you did select some interests and all the biographical information, which is better than lots of other profiles around. Good job! For better results, lose the "Hi.." and replace it with a better description of yourself and what you seek.

A better photo might be where your face is better shown, and not so dark and shadowy. But the photo you've got, With the harsh sunlight and the Hawaiian shirt, evokes a lazy, hot afternoon, and could be nice, with cold drinks, so good job!

Anyway, you seem like a good guy with honorable intentions and it doesn't hurt to have been a doctor, so you should be alright. But for the profile that still needs some work, I rate it only 8/10.

Good luck!

He kinda looks like Simon Cowell

Seems like a good start. You filled in the biographical information, but left the headline and text blurb as the default "Hi.." Lame.

The photos are a bit puzzling. The main photo has a good smile. The 2nd looks almost like a cartoon and blurry. The 3rd looks like you're ten years older with the long hair and tattoos, and depressing. Maybe upload different photos that are recent, clear and well-lighted. Wearing nice clothes and a smile couldn't hurt. A good clear photo could better show off your ink, too.

Then take a few minutes to write up a text blurb about yourself and what you're looking for. You could include mention of interests to attract like-minded women. Come up with a short headline to stand out in search results, too.

Anyway, the photos aren't awful--you seem like a good-looking guy, and lots of people don't seem to even read the text, so you'll probably do alright. But for the profile that looks incomplete with out-of-date photos, I'd only rate it 5/10. Keep at it.

Good luck!

I think you meant "conceited" and not "conceded." You've got some good, clear photos, along with the weird ones, but overall, it's an OK profile. Could be better.

Your blurb doesn't say much about you. You wrote Hi...I live in Clearwater florida but I'm currently staying in missouri to help my dad with medical problems.

It says what you're doing, and I guess we could get from that that you're a good, caring son, and you value family, but it could also be interpreted as your brothers and sisters couldn't be bothered and you had nothing better going on. Maybe you could take another try at describing yourself and the kind of person you seek. Maybe even saying exactly what you mean.

I like that most of the photos are clear and well-lit, but you're wearing that baseball hat, as if to hide a bald spot. If you're bald, it's Okay. Self-confidence is a good quality. You could do that. A better photo might be where you're wearing a fresh, clean shirt and maybe a smile or otherwise being charming without the hat.

Also, the "Hi.." that gets put into the headline and blurb sections can be replaced with something better. The headline could be a few words laying out your skills or best qualities, or maybe a main point you're trying to get across.

Anyway, you seem like a good-looking guy with a good heart, and many don't even read the text so much, so you should do alright. But for the profile with pictures and text that could be better, I'd rate it 7/10.

Good luck!

The "Iron Dome" is not effective against nukes. It's barely effective against Houthi rockets from Iran, so the US Navy shoots those things from out at sea. If we elect Trump, we can count on more of that kind of moronic reasoning and over-spending on unnecessary defense projects. Elect Trump, and maybe he can drive the Iranians to make more nukes, having already ripped up the de-escalation deal negotiated by the Obama Administration. Remember that Trump's the guy who wanted to nuke hurricanes.

So 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray snuck out of her home in Houston to drink beer with some guys that she met after 10pm, and was tragically killed and left in a creek last week, while the guys turned out to be recent immigrants.

You pick out stories of this girl last week, and some other person last month and maybe another from months back, allegedly killed by immigrants. Last year, there were 2,281 homicides just in Texas. You're convinced there's an immigrant crime wave because you're looking for crimes committed by immigrants. Do you see the problem?

All I'm saying is I haven't seen stories published anywhere, including this latest bit about children raped. I know Rep. Marjorie Greene kept screaming about Laken Riley during the State of the Union speech, but that's a crime from a while back, and she thinks we all need to keep remembering that one woman's name.

Forgive my suspicion, but you could just be making it up. You've been wrong before. I see it's not your thing to provide links or anything. You're writing like you secretly know how to command a Marine battalion, and we're supposed to just accept your claim of a violent undocumented immigrant crime wave. I say BS.

That probably came from either Medvedev or Peskov, as Putin has is lieutenants say the dangerous stuff. But with "mutually assured destruction" if UK gets hit, you know Russia will get it back in kind.

Also, considering Russia's current missile effectiveness, it's likely that half of Russia's nukes would never reach their target.

LOL! You think the NY Post is a liberal paper? Is it because the Murdochs are liberal now, and because they aren't 200% in line with Trump? Remember last year when they had to pay $787.5 million damages for their support of Trump's voting machine lies?

Smartmatic v. Newsmax is scheduled for September.

If you've got a link, it'd help support your point. But the Republicans in Congress keep hyping the crimes from years ago, while in the meantime thousands of similar crimes are committed by natural US citizens. It's not a crime wave, but it could turn into one if Trump gets his way and abolishes the FBI, for fear of becoming the subject of another criminal complaint and investigation without first appointing a new AG to kill any such investigation.

Thank you for the link. Shows that despite the extensive investigation, nothing was found on President Biden--like we already knew.

No, we are all better off for having Fauci in place to refute the president pretending that the pandemic would magically just go away and suggesting injecting bleach and horse de-wormer.

Why get so angry at your misunderstanding Fauci and completely forgive Trump's reckless lies?

Republicans like to sing about crimes committed by immigrants while ignoring more of the same crimes committed by US citizens. And they keep bringing up the same murders from years back. Remember Senator Britt tried to link Biden with immigrant crimes, but had to talk about sexual assaults that happened in Mexico during the Bush Administration. But sure, let's take lessons on credibility from your party.

That "highly suspicious target" was mentioned in the report I linked above, and was not the bomber, but just some suspicious-looking guy, and he didn't warrant a bullet by the decision of the commander. Turns out that commander was right.

Never heard Biden say "Moscow Marge" but I've seen it on X and Threads. Here's a scan of the NY Post.


The reason the US didn't jump to send F-16s is because those are not really all that suitable for Ukraine. They need good runways and lots of maintenance, compared to the Mig-29s Biden arranged from Poland and Hungary early on. Really, Ukraine should get Saab Gripens, but that's a whole other debate. What Ukraine really needed, and the Republicans couldn't stand sending, was artillery rounds. The US sent our M-777 guns and some ammo, but Moscow Marge get her little friends together and Removed McCarthy for daring to work with Democrats to make anything happen, so Ukraine went several months running on fumes. Biden's been sending military surplus in the meantime.

From my Army training, I say that nobody could have prevented a suicide bomber in a crowd that size. But if you better, tell me how they could pick a suicide bomber out of a crowd of a tens of thousands. Marines had snipers positioned around ready to take shots.

Preparing to deploy to Afghanistan, I went through months of extra training about handling crowds and special cultural aspects specific to the region, and I wasn't even military police. We were notionally "blown up" several times due to not following particular rules. We only handled groups of around a dozen, and short of isolating each person behind barricades, each notional bomb "killed" at least 3 people, and we had all the space we needed in that training range. Outside Abbey Gate, I doubt they had more than a couple feet of space to work in, and that's how one suicide bomber killed hundreds of people. No reports say the bomber identified himself before detonating his device. Didn't wear the device outside his clothes. Didn't show anyone his detonator. Nothing. What are the Marines to do?
