    Bro, are you high right now? Retards shouldn’t be allowed to smoke weed.

    At the same time, if we did shoot it down over the states, we wouldn’t have known anything about it.

    We wouldn’t have known that by not shooting it down right away it was able to complete its mission & transmit data back to China?

    I suppose that is true.

    Yeah, we wouldn’t have known what it really was by direct evidence, all its capabilities etc etc, so it’s a double edge sword in a way.

    Alright but hear me out… Say that I’m in a Russian gulag, and I spot Ivan snooping around my cell and looking at me funny. I have an opportunity to shank him before he can hurt me. Instead I just go to my bunk and fall asleep. Later that night I wake up to find Ivan violently raping me. By waking up to being raped I found out that my suspicions about Ivan were correct and now know precisely how big his penis is.

    Is it really a double edged sword? I would rather have just shanked Ivan when I caught him snooping around in my cell when I had the opportunity vs gaining intelligence from being raped.

    Yes I understand your perspective perfectly, while of course looking back in hindsight we can definitively say we should have shot it down earlier, but we didn’t know what it was exactly at that time. While the balloon probably has more capabilities than a satellite, we also protect our military installments and bases from overhead spying anyways.

    By shooting it down later, at least we can 100% confirm and understand what equipment the balloon has with certainty, and know it’s full purpose, rather than make guesses, and give China zero room to try to deny it.

    I’m not defending these actions, just trying to show that waiting did have some benefits as well.

    I think one reason we waited, is so we can actually catch the Chinese red handed.


    But if we break down your version.
    If you saw him snooping around your room, acting suspicious, and you think he might try to fuck you in the ass, you wouldn’t just fall asleep, you might question him, or threaten him to get the fuck out. you’d stay awake and make sure he didn’t try anything, then after he left your cell, you shank his ass and stomp on his face until he tells you what he was really doing.

    Having suspicions and completely ignoring them, isn’t what we did. We questioned, we monitored, im sure we also did some things to make sure they couldn’t get anything from above, etc etc.

    So Biden let a Chinese spy balloon, filled with explosives, float about our airspace all they wanted because "it was safer than shooting it down."
    Biden was forced into taking action since too many people saw the spy balloon. Remember what he initially said.. 'There were chinese spy balloons during the Trump administration too!'

    He is beholden to the Chinese.. just like Apple, Nike, Disney and the NBA.

    LOL.

    So, we knew it was a spy balloon over Alaska.. but we kept it in the air to actually spy on the spy balloon!

    We're genius.

    Our government said it knew it was a spy balloon when it entered our airspace over Alaska.

    What capabilities did we learn from it by letting it over our ICBM installations in Montana? From the sounds of it.. China made out like a bandit. They lost a cheap balloon which probably was sent on the one way mission.. and we claimed all the wreckage after the CCP got all the information it wanted.
