Exactly! These idiots are posting about China, thinking the video is supposed to be taken literally and not as a metaphor for what WE do to other countries.

There are some truly dumb people on this thread.

Why would anyone want to vote for a president with no training or education in "thing's military" not to mention trying to buddy up with people who hate us, and apologizes for America all the time? Oh that's right we did.

Empathy is a good door to the future. If we learn to use it, we will learn to grow and develop as human beings.

China has one piece of crap aircraft carrier that they bought from another country and retrofitted... While we have thirteen carrier groups (maybe 1 more?), with 50+ years experience operating carriers.

If they sent a bunch of ships over, they would be floating ducks.

More plausible would be an EMP Attack.

The "idiots" didn't misunderstand the video, they didn't even click on it because they have grown weary of people starting threads who are either too lazy or incapable of expressing their opinion/subject with actual words that others can read so they just spam links to content created by others. It takes about 5-10 seconds to scan an initial post of most threads and read what the threadstarter is covering, these people who can only post a video expect others to spend 3 minutes, 5 minutes, etc. to make sure they have headphones or volume set and take the time to watch their stupid video? Come on.

When one titles a thread "If China Attacks America" then can't even be bothered to write an initial post, expect some replies about China attacking America.

We have back up systems to protect from EMP since Cheyenne Mountain Can take a direct nuclear blast and not be affected Same with the Pentagon and White house So NORAD would stay operational and even if some how they shut down the North American power Grid they would not affect Ohio Class subs that are all over the world and can are the main counter strike wepaon which is shooting off it's trident II Nuclear Warhead tipped ICBMs.

Wicked video though looks like a movie I would watch on NetFlicks if they made it.

LOL their EMP blast left Canada with it's power on... who ever made the video must not know that the West Coast and East Coast power Grids are connected to the same Distrabution Hubs and Canada send all the extra energy produced south.
