Letter: Missile message
an invasion of the Japanese mainland would have killed more Japanese than the two nucs dropped. the Japanese people were ready to die for their emperor. look at what happen on Saipan and Okinawa. One of my uncles was in the 11th Airborne Division, listed to participate in the invasion of the Kanto Plain. Our losses would have been horrendous. Truman made the right decision.

Letter: Missile message
I was an Air Force brat before I enlisted in the Army. My Dad was aircrew in the Strategic Air Command in the 50s and 60s. I was proud of him than and proud of him now. Regardless of revisionist history there was a real threat from Russia. Guys like my Dad were on the watchtower for us. In later years he told me that several of the missions that he would have flown under the SIOP or single integrated operation plan were one way in to Russia.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Leave the Polaris or give it to the Cosmosphere makes no difference to me. There is a reason we have symbols.

State officials working overtime to keep up with concealed-carry permits
actually they are prosecuting meth and medicaid fraud. I had to defend a meth case and a medicaid fraud case in the last year that was prosecuted by the AG. I have a concealed carry, didn't think I was a yahoo but I am a fifth generation Kansan. Maybe that qualifies as a Yahoo.

Opinion: Obama sensibly cautious on Syria
It is always the same bunch, McCain and Linsey. No need to rush in to this. It is a shame about the civilian casualties.
