A foreign object just roaming around the country for a whole week. Who knows what it had in it or could have dropped.

Safety. Look, I don't know how much you know about this balloon, but it was said to be as large as three school buses in one report that I read. It also had some equipment dangling from it. Now, how are you going to shoot something that large down, and control where all the debris goes? I mean even after it was shot down, the debris field is said to be several miles in area.What took so long?!
I happen to agree with everything you've said.Hi wondering

Would you want to be the one responsible for that balloon coming down in taters on some semi traveling at 75 miles down the interstate and it wraps itself around his cab in a moment? How about that fairly good sized piece of equipment that could fall on your grandmother's head and kill her instantly. Or maybe it will fall on your children out playing in the back yard and suddenly one of your children is laying on the ground...dead? Is that what you'd have done?
On no, I would have blown it out of the sky before it got here. Really, you think the Canadians would have been more understanding that we caused a major accident on one of their highways or killed some Canadians grandmother or children?
The truth seems to be that this event actually happens pretty regularly. Yes, we should make it clear to China that we do intend to destroy any such device that invades our airspace without permission to do so. But to blow them out of the sky over our own country just puts our own people at risk of pretty serious injury or death. It was done for safety.

Well, I'm not going to try and second guess the military on this. It may turn out that the device is exactly what China said it was. If so, yes, they should be more careful with their equipment in these uses, but no real harm done. As I say, and possibly this is something to bring out at the next United Nations meeting. Have an agreed policy on how these issues will be handled.I happen to agree with everything you've said.
Except it was spotted over the Northern part of Alaska, if I remember, anyway a deserted place, and it should have been done right away. What was it doing over US airspace??
I think there's a second one over South Carolina.
Not sure, the Italian news barely mentioned it, and I was in the kitchen having my coffee.
If you care to let us know...
Biden is the laughing stock of the world. Australien news just has to show real clips of his speeches or falling down stairs and it’s hilarious.Maybe not now that you mention it. Trump had a lot more respect from world leaders than biden does.
And I don't buy bidens, its for the children on the ground that we didn't shoot it down sooner. Like they care about children. So China must've got a lot of good pictures from Montana to South Carolina.
Yes, he's a funny guy. I always enjoyed President Obama's antics also. He could really keep a lively group humored. It's good that the Aussie's are enjoying them. I think a little humor and light heartedness between the nations and the leaders of said nations is a good thing.Biden is the laughing stock of the world.

They’re not laughing with him as Biden was making serious speeches. He wasn’t being humorous. He was displaying signs of dementia. It’s really embarrassing.Hi Dorothy Mae

Ohhhhh. I see. You get off on mocking and ridiculing others. Yeah that's getting to be a big problem over on this side of the pond, too. I try not to, but I must admit, I do enjoy a good blooper video compilation.They’re not laughing with him as Biden was making serious speeches. He wasn’t being humorous.

Ah yes, the typical ad hominem response. Sigh! I said it is embarrassing to have a senile president who cannot make coherent sentences in official speeches and needs notes to tell him to shake hands and then sit down. I do not enjoy it. I am sorry the Americans were so foolish as to elect a man who is senile.HI Dorothy Mae
