    Free speech has limits when the actions of which can be reasonably assumed to cause direct harm to people, such as specified death threats, calls of fire in a crowded area, bomb threats, etc. Burning a flag in protest does not meet that definition, unless the guy throws the burning flag at...

    U.S. Effort to Help India Build Up Navy Hits Snag

    Frankly I don't know anything about India's military doctrine re: carriers, its not a point of interest for me, i'm going off what the article says. I'm surprised that according to it India has no strategy for how to use its carriers in combat, that's the basic job of a military. Are you...

    The courts defined it as free speech, it is free speech, deal with it. If Trump actually got that passed as law i'd participate organized flag burning myself in protest. We have a duty to protect not only speech we find distasteful, but speech we find outrageous.

    Trump calls Fidel Castro 'Brutal Dictator'

    Castro was a brutal dictator, that's just facts. There are certainly dictators who are more brutal than him, but he was brutal to any opposition himself, and kept power with an iron fist. As for great leader, I'd say he was somewhat greater than Kim Jong Il, but less so than Berlusconi...

    The moment the US gave the world to China

    Great, go ahead, you can deal with the world's problems and have the world both depend on and revile you at the same time as your every single action is put under a microscope, while we can work on actually prospering again instead of creating and giving incentive to a system that everyone...

    HOW MUCH WILL DONALD TRUMP REALLY SPEND ON DEFENSE?

    Trump doesn't control the pursestrings, Congress does, and that congress is Republican. They aren't going to cut military spending. They'll definitely cut welfare though.

    No bbccdd is right., the electoral system is there to ensure that every state has a say and the presidential elections aren't just about California, New York, and Texas issues. The US was built on states rights, and that core remains.

    The F-22 line is gone, and the engineers who worked on it are scattered. The redesign for modern standards as well... Honestly the resources would be better spent building the next generation fighter to replace the F-22.
