i think the whole missile defence thing is a crock

theres not the slightest bit of evidence it'd work

Except of course for the times that they have done it.

That'd be the times when they rigged it, fudged the tests - right?

The times they put the beacon on the incoming - screaming "Here I am -
c'mon hit me"!

Since those were interceptor tests, not senor tests or system integration
tests it seems reasonable to any intelligent person to ensure that the
target will be detected, but then that explains why you don't get it,
doesn't it.

Of course, in the early stages of development they should make it impossible
to hit or even detect the targets, because that would really help, wouldn't
it?.



Get your head outta your bum and go back to building your R2D2 model.

Idiot.


Isn't that sweet, too dumb to argue to point but not wise enough to say
nothing.
