US Ready to put Weapons in Space
An anonymous reader writes "The Guardian reports "America has begun preparing its next military objective - space. Documents reveal that the US Air Force has for the first time adopted a doctrine to establish 'space superiority'."
If this goes ahead, it will be in violation of the 1967 Outer Space Treaty which forbids the militarization of space."
Who needs good public schools or child healthcare... we're go'na have mother f***'n space lasers!
Now, if anyone tries to have a gay marriage, they'll be fired upon from the United Defense death star orbiting above.
"Things are more moderner than before- bigger, and yet smaller- it's computers-- San Dimas High School football RULES!"
Never let the facts get in the way of a good story....

I think Cobra did in one of the GI Joe cartoons. But then again, Cobra was as smart as bin Laden's terrorist organization- their overriding concern in choosing bases was neat ways to hide airports in hugely out-of-the-way locations where they wouldn't be bothered.

Sometimes that works when you're fighting an army so ineffectual they never managed to kill a single enemy on purpose.
If we don't militarily dominate space, how will we be able to ensure our right to force global warming on the rest of the planet?!
This is a must. We need nukes up there like yesterday. I shit you not my fellow christian white Americans. This is a matter of supreme national security.
Like, I'm pretty sure that you should totally let us know what treaty you're talking about, OK? I don't remember an International Don't-Put-Weapons-On-Drones Treaty, but who knows, it's so complicated, ya know?
Stop by my site where I write about ERP systems & more
I think it would be cool if Britian became leader of the world again. England was really good when we had an empire, and now we have a little weedy country. So what we (UK) need to is reclaim all our colonies, The America's included, retake Europe, bring Queen Victoria back to life, conquer China (We need the tea) and use the sum of the worlds technology to lead it into a new era of space exploration... Hell, we could even shove all the criminals on some barren planet like mars, just like the good old days...
