If that was true there would have been dozens launched at the US by now.

Fear of immediate and obliterating retalliation is probably pretty high.

Actually, getting a reliable delivery system is probably harder.

Yes.

If you really wanted to get your hands on a nuclear warhead you could.

I'm sure there are plenty of al'Quaida cells who really want to get their hands on a nuclear warhead.

That's not an issue to people who are already experiencing obliterating retaliations. It's also not an issue to suicide bombers. Try again.

I had macaroni for lunch today.  With cheese/bacon/tomato/hamburger in it.  My mom calls it slop.

My cat's breath smells like cat food.

Anybody like the new thread name?

No you couldn't. In the case of a nuclear warhead you'd need lots of money and the right connections, which not everybody can get. Nuclear warheads are also not as concealable or common as guns.

The point: If you REALLY WANTED ONE, you could get one.

I like macaroni with bacon and tomatoes, adding cheese and hamburger sounds like it'd mix it up too much for my taste.

And what do you expect from your cat? Maybe you should start feeding him mints?

I really want a gun, can you tell me how to get one?

I also really want a nuke, care to lead me in that direction too?

Al'Quaida really wants one. Why haven't they got one and detonated it in New York?

They have most likely tried.  But fortunately, to build a working nuclear bomb, there are discrete technologies involved which can only be produced by known people, manufacturers, and countries.  So far our intelligence is comprehensive enough to trigger a warning when a rogue group is probably planning something like that, and we probably quietly assassinate anyone involved.

Yes, j0k3r. Sleezy pawn shop or perhaps a neighborhood gang member.

Yes, j0k3r. Check with the black market. You honestly think things like that aren't available?

So, Hazard is wrong?

They must not want it bad enough. Its like I always say, "Find a way or make a way!"

They're ready to give their lives to kill americans. If that's not wanting it bad enough, I'm not sure what is.
