Inbound missle from N. Korea alert.

I'm personally much more disturbed by this thread than anything else about the false alert. Arguing about the problems with an alert system is fairly pointless when talking about nuclear weapons. If anything it should be a wake up call that being told you have 15 minutes to live isn't acceptable.

Why is no one questioning the state of affairs that led us to the point where the future of humanity rests on the wisdom of Donald Trump and Kim Jung Un?
