Have you heard about the large balloon floating over the western states, making its way east? Not good news.

You'd better give it a few extra pumps.

With over 150 ICBM silos just in Montana alone we could have easly let the air out of it. Would be interesting to know what all gear actually was on board. China says "oops sorry, it drifted off course by accident. HMM? Guess we will never know.

I think the Japanese used Balloons with Bombs attached to them in an attempt to cause havoc in the US during World War 2.

Trust the Chicom excuse? Hell no! We should have put holes in it strategically so that it would safely fall to the ground so we could capture its contents. I'm not buying the admin's excuse that it would be too dangerous to take it down because it might injure someone on the ground.

Kingdom come, comes to mind. They've had plenty of opportunities to take it down over unpopulated areas. JUST TAKE IT DOWN. To avoid "The Attic" I'll stop now.

I'm suprised a couple of guys with a good airplane and a good rifle haven't taken care of it. Our worthless administration won't be doing anything.

It was at 60 thousand feet! No civilian plane could get there.
