I'll not knock a man who speaks out against THE BOMB.

[OutOfGas2012]

drop nukes on montana, specifically his range.. and the better america will be for it.

this scumbag has accomplished nothing with exception of padding his pocketbook

with americans money, period. he shouldn't even be in this country ...

[HorrorAngel666]

You can tell He is smoking that good stuff. Yes hes mega rich so he doesn't have to hide who he is, he donates money to legalizing it.

If they are too dangerous why doesnt USA give up its nukes.USA is the threat the world faces.They are a rogue state.Most of the people are OK but the govt is run by the illuminati.

Idiots like bill gates think because they are rich they have a better opinion.They want to kill most of us off. God is coming soon to destroy all of them.

The Lord told me dec2009 that JUDGMENT has begun.Make your peace with God.

[truthIsStranger]

turner is a raging hypocrite. He's got five kids, and wants to limit everyone else to 2.

both he and bill gates are raging advocates of depopulation, yet are bandied about the world stage as philanthropists. I don't care if 95% won't believe it. It's easier not to believe billionaires want 80% of us dead.

"They are ants, Ted, they ARE ants!"

Been looking for that quote from B. Gates on family guy... can't find it. :-(

Yeah war is hell. We all know that. Still no excuse.

You aren't gonna change my mind about that and sorry for the language, fucking cunt. So don't even waste your time. I'm just glad there are more people who agree with me than you.

I would be more concerned about the pictures and videos of the warfare devastation of the countryside and the population, including many innocent civilians, of that Third World Country, if I were you. Maybe you should go and read books about this miscreant war, such as the book written by then Defense Secretary McNamara, the Ford Man who ran it. Or read about General Westmoreland. I had a Vet tell me last week he hated Lyndon Johnson. Well, like other U.S. Presidents, he was led into it by Pent*

@mdelcamp1 Do pictures and videos lie? She was posing for pictures while sitting on enemy anti aircraft guns. No wonder the navy hates her, that same gun was shooting down their jets. She's a traitor.

[mdelcamp1]

Wrong. She was young, unworldly (idealistic) and maybe a bit spoiled, when she made her misteps in Bhietnham. I do know that many Viet Vets, especially U.S. Navy guys, circulate scurrilous attacks on Jane to this day, such as your own here. It makes me wonder about the honor of U.S. Military guys, truly. What is it Mark Twain aka Samuel Clemmons, that great American, said? Oh yes: "A lie can travel halfway around the world, before the truth gets out of bed." I guess that's why Politics has Lies.

@mdelcamp1 You do know how much of a piece of shit jane fonda is, right?
