If they were launched in your direction and you lived in the area they were supposed to make contact, what would you do?

Would you try to drive as far away as possible?
Would you stay and take cover hoping the accuracy is off and hit farther away?

I've often thought about this

It's a tough decision

Roads would probably be backed up

But yes I'd still take my chances and try to drive away

I agree but probably won't get too far away.

Can Russian missiles reach the US? According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, Russian land-based missiles could reach the U.S. in as little as 30 minutes, with submarine-based missiles striking 10 or 15 minutes after they are launched.

Before you could get your family rounded up and your car packed with meager belongings you'd be blown to smithereens.

Thank God we have Pappa Joe Biden in the White House so this scenario will never happen.

Nothing to blow up in my town. Apple Farm? Brewery? Amazon warehouse?

Based on what we're seeing in the Ukraine, I doubt Russian missiles are very accurate. Suppose that's akin to playing Russian Roulette

I remember in the 1970's there was a large city's sewage treatment plant that had a four story underground sewage pump room. Down near the bottom was barrels of Civil Defense water and crackers from the 1960's. It was a designated shelter.
No thanks, I'll look elsewhere.
It's sad we're even talking about it. Not a topic that would have popped up four years ago.

the missiles will be headed to the White House and Capitol so I'd pray that future POTUS and VPOTUS Paul and Massie got out safely and hope the rest take a direct shot

Russia is playing a slow roll in Ukraine. The entire war is in nothing but dirt poor already shit hole areas. It’s like bum fuck Alabama areas. Fuckers in western Ukraine in big city going about their day as usual.

Lots of talk Russia equipment is trash etc. I’m sure some is. They haven’t won yet. Ukraine is winning per media. Oddly Russia is taking a conservative approach. Doesn’t look like Russia has thrown much of anything into Ukraine but bodies and old equipment. They got the meat head chech Warriors in on it. Don’t care what anyone says them some bad dudes who live for that shit. Lots of just block by block clearing tactics going on. If Ukraine cared so much about the shit hole east it wouldn’t have been the shit hole it always has been

As far as nukes idk we ever see it. The entire world and economies depends too much on each other in too many ways it seems. It’s a domino effect nobody wins and everything goes to shit. Doubt it’s as simple as some nut bag hitting a button. Media loves fear and government loves fear just like religion loves fear. Establish fear you establish control. So talk about nukes non stop and what if’s. It’s all BS. Just my opinion. But if not then nothing anybody like 99.9% of the every day average folks can do about it so why worry.

Bush league in today's world. Real threat to humanity is AI!!
Probably true. Boston Dynamic built some damn robot called Atlas that walks and jumps and thinks on its own. Video of it was helping some guy get tools to a scaffold. Shit was wild. Even video of it doing parkour stuff. Runs Jumps and doing damn backflips. It’s like terminator is on the horizon
