Is this an acceptable deterrent to Chinese agression or too far over the top?


Chicoms would respond to that scenario with a nuke. Taipei would be Hiroshima’d.

Assuming the Taiwanese prefer martyrdom over serfdom...then yeah, that would be great strategy. But it might only work if they state the threat and their absolute, moral and strategic right/intent to do so, if attacked...up front.

Joe and KaBama would not like this.

I'd rather use one of those missiles on his new DC domicile.

As long as you're comfortable with a few well-placed Chinese missiles hitting New Orleans. Well, are you?

Well, you think the Taiwanese should gaf about New Orleans, if New Orleans don't gaf for Taiwan? IMO, the ChiComs are the immoral aggressors who will wreak havoc on those who resist; as such, Taiwan has every right to defend their own, with whatever resources available. Same everywhere.

Somebody is going to have to draw a line to ChiComs; sooner the better.

A bunch of people would consider that an improvement.

How many blue run cities can we add to the list?

I would think Taiwan has at least considered that option in the event China were to launch an invasion. They surely don't have much of a chance to fend off an invasion unless they fight dirty.

Can you even begin to imagine the extent and severity of impact on crawfish prices?

Downside is obvious.
New Orleans is the only place LSU seems to be able to win National championships

That was my 83 spring break. Had a blast without selfies, texting, social media, etc. We even talked to real life girls with our mouths and such.

Worldwide community would call it a heinous war crime and they’d vocally support China “reclaiming historical lands” or some shite like that.
