Why the worry or hysteria...

Anyone remember the old junk satellite we shot out of the sky on re-entry due to hazardous fuel on board? That satellite moved faster than anything that kim has access to... It ticked off Russia and China...

You want to be worried? Google SATAN2 that makes our tridents look like bottle rockets...

I know that sounds comical that i'm referencing a movie, but think about it. I was reading how it's easier for North Korea to hit the West Coast like California/Nevada/AZ etc.

I'm not the most knowledgeable about counter measures, or preventive measures. What does our Military/Navy/Airforce have to intercept a Nuclear missile so it doesn't hit our land?

I feel like any second i'm gonna see on the news "BREAKING NEWS NORTH KOREA HAS LAUNCHED A NUCLEAR MISSILE TOWARDS THE US"....
It's wise to be worried about Nuclear war but you should remember that not all people think like you. The NK leader is a boy who's been coddled all his life and rules over millions of people who obey him out of fear or brainwashing. People like dear leader always want more power and once he believes he can make other countries bend to his will he will use the power to do it. That's why he continues to build and improve his Nuclear arsenal. These types can't help themselves and it's best to stop him before his ability reaches that capability. He's already been able to achieve too much and that's why he doesn't fear outsiders.

Is anyone else worried about North Korea? (Nuclear War)
I am more worried about the lose cannon we have in the White House than NK.

I keep hoping cooler heads prevail.
Pretty much. NK has been doing nothing differently; they're doing what they have always done. It's Trump who is needlessly ramping up the hostility.

This. Kim Jong Un is a known quantity. He's not going to randomly invade or start bombing some country. He's just showing that he is both able and willing to should anyone decide to mess with North Korea.

Trump? It doesn't seem that he understands what's going on and he's a reactionary nutball who never thinks further than the next action. He's a man driven solely by ego and impulse. That is dangerous. He might do something dumb just because he feels like North Korea is challenging him.

His supporters clearly never think things through, either. They, lacking any historical knowledge and any critical thinking ability, think we can take out the North Korean regime with zero fallout.

Hopefully there are some sane heads around Trump who can keep him reigned in.

Actually, we need to ask if it is worse to keep allowing the NK leader to continue to build up his Nuclear arsenal?

Let's not pretend that Trump is not continuing a two decade long tradition of bombing other countries and sticking our nose where it doesn't belong.

Trump shouldn't be doing this, but let's not pretend it is something new.

I'm sick of this partisan ****.

Pyongyang has made major advances in weapons in recent years and shown a willingness to use its submarines for military actions. Kim Jong Un's nuclear weapons ambitions show no signs of slowing. The regime also is working to build an intercontinental ballistic missile that can reach North America.

We need to ask if it is worse to keep allowing the NK leader to continue to build up his Nuclear capabilities and arsenal?

Those that believe Jung un will not act first should emigrate to the PRNK.
