that makes me so happy!

I could happily walk into the woods with what I have on me now and be fine for at least a week

A CW would be laughably one sided in terms of on the 'battlefield', but I don't think they're aiming for a immediate on field victory. They'll martyr themselves and instigate other followers and potential international intervention. That's when we'll have a big problem

I am currently in PJs

I was thinking it would be funny the other day, if we made a type of tank ammo that was a big nerf dart, but the tank could take real ammo if you had it.

The entire world could declare war on us and most wouldnt get within a thousand miles of our coastline

get big tank clubs where we make our own tanks and go out and shot at each other with them!

The borders would burn for a few weeks but thats about it

Just Mount a massive potato cannon on the tank

yes, but i want to be able to use this as a proper battle tank if the need comes.

@Jym you should certainly stock on chilean wine , if nothing else our currency has devaluated 20%

I don't think they need to land onto our coast to do damage

@ARockRaider it's already a functional tank, I'm saying literally a second gun.

Two barrels

ah, you could do that to.

Easier solution

but i wanted to fire big foam darts at/from a tank!

Missiles to bombard all coastal areas, shut down trade and supplies and we'll be up shit creek. Along w/bombing all our energy infrastructure

You would be

Unfortunately that depreciation has not reached our domestic market @Ryoma Nagare . But given the situation maybe you should stock up. There's no telling what will happen to your currency but your wines have an exchange value in USD.

Or if the world decided to overwhelm our IT security and sabotage our infrastructure from within. War no longer needs to be kinetic

You dont understand

Nothing would get within a thousand miles of our coastline

Not planes

Not missiles

Great thing about the potato cannon idea is that the combustion chamber and the barrel don't need a Ridgid connection. So as long as the barrel is strapped to the side of the main guns. You can aim it like a tank still

Not troop carriers

There was a thing written about this a few years back

Im in absolute panic

Things would be hairy in the beginning but we dont actually need trade

We have every resource we need to get by

We arent like Germany or Japan we dont rely on others for wartime resources

if you ever need help i can absolutely help you choose some great

National waters are ridiculously well monitored compared to the land borders. A dingy will get spotted and picked up by coast guard within and hour of entering the waters unexpected

We dont have to rely on others for resources at all for that matter

And the navy would sink or shoot down anything that even looked at us wrong, we have enough military to shut the borders down like a new and inproved iron curtain

The US can absolutely sustain itself without trade, its not something Id like to see

but its a continental country

We also have military units on every continent in the world but we could literally just turtle while the rest of the world simply ran out of men

Ye, possible but not ideal

thing is you say lets cut China i can understandably
