Yes, I was just a smart a** today. Besides, one of my best friends is a self-made Navel Historian (I think he actually served with John Paul Jones
), and he uses that fact about the Arizona on many people as a trivia question.
Now to pose a different question. Is this idiot in N. Korea dumb enough to launch one or two missiles at us, knowing we would (hopefully), launch a couple hundred at him a few minutes later?
Would we launch at N. Korea, even if we shot them out of the air?
Then the question has to be asked, can he actually hit what he is aiming at?
