    It’s cute that you think they’re all on the other side of the world. You must feel very safe.

    I envy you.

      I haven’t heard of any armed, violent Russian criminal gangs operating on US territory in recent years, so yeah, I’m less worried about them than the ones that are known to operate here.

            See, it’s funny because you think that everyone sharing this is insinuating that Russia’s army is here. Or that it’s being implied that they’re here en masse in any conceivable way.

            No one is saying this-

            But if you think the White House isn’t compromised, I’ve got a bridge to sell you if you’ve got the рубль.

              That may be the case, but what immediate danger does that pose to me? I’d be more worried about armed gangs in my neighborhood than spooks in Washington, because the former would likely pose a more immediate threat to my life than the latter.

                The spooks in Washington will soon be controlling the armed gangs in your neighborhood. Only those gangs will have an American flag on their sleeve.

                I have a feeling that line between the former and the later will blur much faster than you think.
