The no fly zone will prevent any air space from going through, including russia's air force and civilian commercial jet planes. Hillary already admitted the no fly zone will most likely kill innocent people..

In order to achieve this we will also have to take out already existing syrian/russian air defense systems and replace with our own air defense, most of which are in high populated areas and many innocent syrians will be killed in the process.

This will piss russia off because they need to get their air force mobile to defend syria and their air defense systems are also getting destroyed. This is a direct act of war with Russia.

By going to war with Russia we will then get involved with their ally China (which we are heavily in debt with them). We already lost relations with the Philippines too. If we are to go to war with China it will be even harder since we no longer have a military presence in the Philippines.

We also have North Korea to deal with while this is going on, now while North Korea may be easy to defeat they can easily demolish South Korea's capital Seoul with a barrage of artillery fire that can kill millions of people in a few hours. So while we are fighting with russia, syria and china that's most likely when NK will strike without warning.

We don't have the necessary man power to defend US backed syrian rebels, South Korea, japan (will most likely get involved with NK) and other smaller allied nations all at the same time. Thus forcing our bigger allies to get involved to help us.

Russia is also already preparing for nuclear war, by the way.

literally none of this no fly nonsense is happening unless russia and other international leaders agree to it, in which case all of these problems will not exist because russia will be enforcing it alongside us. clinton is not the only person advocating a no-fly zone. the US is already doing so along with the UK, and i believe other powers as well. supporting a no-fly zone is not the same as saying that she will enforce it in spite of russia, it simply means that she will continue doing what the US is already doing, calling for a no-fly zone in syria to be enforced internationally.

The president does not have as much power as you think. Whoever gets elected, I doubt we're going to be suddenly sprung into nuclear war.

technically the president does have the power to tell the military to start enforcing arbitrary no-fly zones (barring the likely unconstitutional restrictions of the war powers act), but it'd be a foreign policy nightmare to just decide to do that in someone else's airspace, especially when other major players have made it very clear that they don't want a no-fly zone there. regardless, you're right, a nuclear war is probably not going to happen with either candidate. out of the two, i would probably be inclined to say that Annoying Orange might be more apt to go to war at all, but that's mostly speculation based on his personality.

Except she wants war, shes motivated by the money.

maybe, but you're going to have a hard time providing compelling evidence for that intent. the fact that a manufacturer supported her campaign is not incredibly damning evidence lol. it's just needlessly anticipated malintent.

the idea that a campaign contribution equates to extreme political favors is fallacious and frankly absurd

the only reason a no fly zone would cause war is because russia doesn't want it. thus, enforcing the no fly zone by shooting down russian planes would cause war. however, i have no reason to believe clinton wants the US to take it upon itself to enforce a no fly zone in syria when international organizations have already discussed this and shot down the idea, especially because of objections from countries like russia that don't want one. and this is exclusively why it would cause war as far as i can tell. if clinon got russia to agree to a no fly zone, there would be no war, and with no agreement, there would be no no-fly zone.

Yes and it will just get worse considering we already have thought crime laws here.

What you contribute to the economy is different than what you pay in taxes. Yes, they should pay taxes, but nobody is saying that we should just let them stay undocumented and cheat the system. Grant them citizenship so that they can pay their fair share.

expanding on this:
the economy is bigger than the government. if people come into the country, sell labor, and purchase goods and services from private businesses with their wages, they are growing the economy. if you want them to stop providing illegal cheap labor and you want them to be held accountable for the taxes they may not be paying, a fair solution is to provide them a better path to citizenship so they aren't invisible to the government and employers can't maliciously hold their wages down. theoretically, at least. obviously the issues are more complex than that and there are problems tangential to immigration that also deserve attention, but there is a more elegant solution than deporting millions of working immigrants.

Plus, most people will take this

As an excuse to keep making joke addons.

I think others might see it as an excuse to make more and more joke addon topics. call this jumping the gun but you can have fun with making small test/joke addons without having to actually release topics on them, especially ones that might seem like jokes

why do people need an excuse to make mods? people don't need elitist approval to make content, regardless of whether it's a gamemode, a practical script, or some one-off joke mod. stuffting on someone because you don't like the mod they made is absolutely a stuffty thing to do. there are no rules to released mods other than the fact that they should be original (or a modification of an existing mod in some cases) and functional. i fail to see any legitimate harm that these mods could ever do beyond not making someone laugh, and insisting that they're taking up infinite real estate for "real mods" is incredibly condescending and dismissive of someone else's content.

people seem to be overblowing this, tho i'm not too clear on the implications of what the WHO considers 'infertile.' supposedly it's a change in definition that apparently implies that reproduction is a fundamental right for everyone, not just those in a relationship?

my hype has been killed :(

seems kinda obvious tho. it doesn't have a disc drive and it's not got the same features as the 3DS (mainly the dual screen which is fairly important, don't even think it has a stylus).
