Kind of a /k/ spooky thread but also kind of serious. The American interior is massive. There are countless regions where the human population "officially" is zero for hundreds of square miles, even thousands. While we've all heard and have enjoyed stories of cryptids and things such as wendigos and shit. My curiosity shifts more to the realistic, albeit still surreal possibilities that these regions could be host to everything ranging from organized crime running things such as drug labs to outcast groups either politically or religiously motived or just deranged to live out in the middle of nowhere. This possibility leads my imagination into wondering; what if it's true? What if there could be straight up organized crime groups waging guerrilla warfare against each other in the middle of nowhere with even the US military being involved, either sending in SF to kill them and wipe out any evidence to keep the public dark or even funding them CIA style. There could be firefights being waged right now and nobody would know other than those directly involved in said firefights.

The possibility gets even stranger when you factor in weird mystery stories of experienced hikers with years to decades experience going missing, just for the search for these people being conducted in very weird ways, with even Army SF getting involved, searching areas blocked off from local law enforcement to "find them".

What does /k/ think of all of this and what theories and or stories do you guys have to share? Also, just general spoopy thread because why the fuck not?

I mean he's not wrong, there's a census tract in Maine with 440 people spread out over 3000 sq miles.
Then you've got Nye county Nevada (area 51 i think) which has a census tract with 0 population over 4.5k sq mi, as far as theoretically populated areas goes that'd be Alaska where Yukon-koyukuk has 5k people spread over 150k sq mi

There's a dozen ways from sunday to keep extending your stay in Canada. Some methods can be quite expensive, and grey-area legally, if not outright illegal, though liability is on the employer.

From what I've heard, government services are overwhelmed. What're the odds that someone who keeps their head down, working ethno-nepotist odd jobs get tracked down and deported? Or you've got the chain-migration types bringing over their entire extended family, which is incredibly straight-forward, cut and dry.

>>61613388
The point is to ask your parents for HELOC so you can put a down-payment on a house in a desirable location and start extorting people for outrageous rent payments which are still marginally lower than the area average.

Not my discussion but Ukraine DEFINITELY never had RPGs on rooftops in mind so... is this even good for your argument?
>There are a LOT of RPGs laying around, if you are getting shot at by AT anywhere on earth odds are it's an RPG
They had a lot more ATGMs than the invasion force had tanks. Priorities. Russians definitely had worse things to worry about, which of course was borne out. Ironically they have more to worry about from RPGs now, but those RPGs have minds of their own and don't care about these defences either. At no point have RPGs in the traditional sense been the biggest threat for vehicles and it's hard to cope cage infantry.

>>61614426
>Ukraine DEFINITELY never had RPGs on rooftops in mind
A well made cope cage should work against a PG HEAT at least some of the time, that warhead can be thrown by a rocket of flown by a drone. So long as there is a chance of shorting the piezo fuse bars have some value.

>They had a lot more ATGMs than the invasion force had tanks
Russia didn't go into this war expecting to be fighting over kilometers of over fields, they were in the cities within days and expected to stay there.

there hasnt been any new development for nuclear bombs since the 50s. No need to test anything
>>
>>61614214
There is a new us icbmthat was recently developed and being tested. Though it's using old nuclear warheads that are being retrofitted. It's known that the she of the bombs might have failing components in them. They can test the delivery vehicle but the bombs themselves could have all kinds of problems.

Is just dumb to rely on old weapons and prayer. If you were given a 50 year old cow sidearm wouldn't you want to test it to make sure it still works in case you need to use it?

Their service life is just being extended but they are still old. When you buy a refurbished electronic device you test it to make sure your changes actually fixed any problems. These nukes are being changed and refurbished without being tested.

In normie circles, it's what another anon already called "safe edgy" that became really popular with the 50% brown American zoomers of today. Same reason why they also inexplicably just seethe and chimp out on the French or mock Italians out of nowhere. Making fun of "white countries" = safe and kosher.
On 4chan, people here have always been mad at Britain because it's "Cucked and Muslim". Even Ireland, which 90% of Americans love, is starting to get hated on in this website because it has too many immigrants.

Well it may not be the exact type of answer you were expecting, but nevertheless an important and often forgotten one.
It was a joy to work on. Everything was easily accessible, essentially all aligned on either side of the bomb bay. Plenty of space, well-laid out, no needing to rip half of the airframe apart for a simple hangar check. Not his words, but I have the impression you could tell it had been designed by people who'd had to turn an aircraft round in wartime conditions. Never really caused any problems. The only downside I've ever recalled him mention was knowing that he wouldn't see them again if they went out for real - and yes, there are a couple of ways to interpret that sentence.

The service will be finished next month
