Icon Attempting to kill Mick and Reg

So, now everybody is saying, including the Iranians, that they were just sort of firing at nothing and they did not want to hurt and certainly not kill anybody with their rockets. It was just a show, that hopefully would break some "machinery" and that's it. I mean, why not?

We do this too. When Trump wanted to bomb an airbase in Syria he did not do so until he told the Russians that were there to get everybody out of the way so we would not hurt anybody with our bombing. So, they did. The Russians moved and told the Syrians to move and the US tried to just drop their bombs on empty runways.  This way Trump could look tough and say he bombed something but just as a show and not actually pissing anybody off. So, I am sure Donny totally respected the idea that the Iranians wanted to do the same thing. Why not?

Is Brad trying to kill us? He might be. He probably is a bad shot and we are you know several thousand miles from him and not sitting in the same pub so the difficulty level for Brad to kill us is quite high.  Brad is likely more a danger to himself than he is to us. 

Plus, I mean I am in the United States so really here getting shot at is a common thing. I was first shot at as a 8 year old boy. An old man with a shotgun fired at us from his porch because we were using his land as a short cut to get to school and back. He had yelled at us several times so he felt justified in shooting at us...with what he claimed were shells he had loaded with rock salt. So, something that would not kill us but would "sting like hell" if he hit us.

Thankfully, like Donny shooting at Syrians or Iranians shooting at US airbases his aim was pretty bad...maybe intentionally, maybe not as when the police responded he apparently told them he was shooting at us but from too far away.  Maybe it was just a show. Anyway, not the last time in life I was shot at and thankfully everybody that has shot at me, so far, has had lousy aim. 

So, if you come here Mick, and we go hit the pubs and see a Patriots game prepare to be shot at and if Brad is trying to kill us if we are in the same place at the same time we'll be making his task much easier.  I will count on my luck holding out and Brad having bad aim and I suspect you will be able to outsmart him...I've seen his haircut...anybody that goes to a barber like that is likely more than slightly confused.

Now, if Marc joins Brad in his quest to kill us we may have more to be concerned with because I think Marc has purchased a lot of weapons and ammo for fear that someone is going to take his guns.  But you know that old Irish saying "We all gotta go sometime, might as well do it with a drink in your hand."

Slainte!
