You're welcome to join us, but you need an authentic "operator" outfit and have to bring your own beer and beef jerky. Guns are optional. We'll be fighting people who cry when you call them names.
I have my old SWAT BDU's, guns and bacon. Plus. I am a medic, so...

Need a foreign legion? I've got nothing better to do.
Fly here and we can invade from the North!

This may be our chance to invade the North, IMO. :-"
You had to figure that the U.S. berzerky-ness would move upward at some point. :blkeye:

The guy who voted for Romney needs to disembowel himself.Learned something fun this morning: there's one tiny district in New Hampshire, Dixville Notch, which is the first county in the nation to open and close. Voting opens at midnight, and because there's only about two dozen registered voters in the entire unincorporated county, it closes at about 12:05.
Clinton wins Dixville Notch, N.H., with 4 votes to Trump’s 2
This year, Dixville Notch went to Hillary! CNN might as well call the race now
The finall tally was:
Clinton - 4
Trump - 2
Johnson - 1
Romney- 1

No need to invade. Our tard in charge believes in open borders, is buddies with a lot of commie leaders and would give you all hugs at the border.

You could use a lil Amurica in ya.
Television networks have taken their pledge not to post results too early so seriously that they even quarantine their election night forecasters and polling professors who work for them.
“The networks actually do this quarantine room because they do not want this info to leak out,” said Ken Goldstein, a professor of politics at the University of San Francisco and a member of ABC’s decision desk. “That’s to their credit.”
Both Slate and VoteCastr feel they are on solid legal ground reporting projections early.
“The legal constraints generally have been those on exit polling, and those were restraints about physical distance and approaching voters,” said Karl J. Sandstrom, a lawyer for VoteCastr.
The group does not feel comfortable making outright calls of winners, but rather intends to show “ where things stand” throughout the day. “The appeal is not to out-CNN CNN or declare the election over at 10 a.m. on Election Day,” Ms. Turner said.
Either way, some say the group could be getting ahead of the results and threatening how elections should be covered.
“I’m profoundly uncomfortable with characterizing election results during Election Day,” Mr. Goldstein of ABC said.
I'll give you 3 guesses what ABC is doing right now.........and the first 3 don't count. :wall:

Clinton could change that via EO.
This is the part that pisses me off... How is this not trying to influence the election through false reporting? How do they call the state for Hillary when she has half the votes so far and only 0.5% reporting? She may eventually win it, but they have NO right to say it's over in the state. Some people may not have voted yet, see this and say "oh, we already lost" and not vote.
Either that or the Electoral votes were given before the results were even in, which is even worse in my opinion.
