I have a problem with any off-topic postings, but don't have the
paranoia about it that you do.

While do you even bother reading this group when you make
absolutely no posts about electronics? We know the answer, of
course, it's your obsession with Wilson. I have news for you, he
just ain't worth it.

Why do other posters on aus.electronics not have a problem with
Trivial Trevor's O/T anti-gun and anti-gunowner rants, but go feral
when an alternative viewpoint appears?
I'm sure many have a problem with both anti-gun or pro-gun viewpoints in
this group. I know I do. Perhaps they're not as vocal.

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to that one too........
Perhaps in your own mind.

Jeezus, that old post just further proves your paranoia with Wilson. (I
think I said so at the time)

Keithr suggested Wilson post his gun stuff "somewhere else". No where did
he either say he approved or disapproved of Wilson's "anti-gun rants
appearing on aus.electronics", yet you've jumped to one conclusion.

Your obsession makes you read whatever turns your paranoia on, irrespective
if it is what is written.

He is an unemployable old loser with a huge chip on his shoulder.

He claims that he couldn't find work because of his age, but no one
wants to hire an inflamed asshole. So, he lived on "Unemployment", and
his wife's income.

He is a moron who thinks he has some say about how other countries

He thinks the sun shines out of his ass, but its just another load.

Your politicians have effectively disarmed the populace!!!!!!!! Silly

Single shot rifles are no match for nuclear weapons in any case.

**Nor is anything in the hands of the most rapid gun nutter. American gun
nutters fail to recognise this simple point. Against the most ancient
technology, still in active service in the US military (B-52 Bombers - ca
1952), civilans have zero defence. Hell, even some very well equipped
military forces have no defence against them.

Guns, in the hands of civilians are simply no match for a well equipped,
well trained military force.

No, but they can make a big difference to any survivors for self
defense, if law and order breaks down, and / or enemy ground forces
try to invade what is left.

Then again, if you nuke something, its debatable as to what is left.

One of the few things that survived the nuclear bomb in Hiroshima was
an American made Mosler safe. After the war, the bank that owned it
flew a tech over from the US to open it, and change the combination.

this is Usenet and, to quote Roddles, each of us get no say in where and

The you don't seem to get is the other allies made greater sacrifices.

Cites? Show proof.

USA 0.32% killed
UK 0.94%
NZ 0.73%
AUS 0.57%
Canada 0.4%
India 0.43%
China ~2-3%
USSR 14.18%
Poland 16%
Total = 35.57 to 36.57% Where are the rest?


The number of people killed, while very important wasn't all the
sacrifices made. How about all the people rounded up and executed or
held in prison camps? Civilians who died because their only local
doctor was overseas, or medicines were not available? How about all the
military who survived, but were disabled? Missing limbs, eyes, or
suffered gut wounds that only let them eat a tablespoon of food at a
time? Ones who lost their hearing, or the ability to breath without an
oxygen tank? Returning military who lost everything they owned, and
came home penniless, only to be told the government couldn't and
wouldn't honor the promises made when they enlisted, or were drafted?
Having the president order the military to shoot Veterans who refused to
leave the capital? Read up on "The Bonus Army".

AFAIK, NZ hasn't got a defense force at all.

hasn't got much of a defense force,
no fighter planes, main battle tanks, or ships larger than frigates.
And yet no-one has invaded since the British.


Im told that its an extremely hard place to invade to start with

several thousand kilometers of sea will slow most people down,
So Australia is in no danger either then?

Women flew them, too. Big deal.
So you are confirming that USAian males think their women are lesser
people.
See? You have to attack everything. That was not what I said.
But it is. Someone suggested the the planes SOLD, not given, to the USSR
were substandard planes in the view of white pilots, but black pilots
were still required to fly them. To which you joined they were also
"flown" by women. Now you are attempting weasel out by saying you ddn't
mean flown (as in fighting), but "flown" as in transfer flights.

The point was that they were flown by more than the Russians.
You still have to provide that evidence.

Prove that they weren't. Our pilots were trained in anything that
flew, including crop dusters to free up the best planes for use
overseas. The planes sent to Russia were a lot better than what was
used to train our pilots. Some leaned to fly in patched together
biplanes
The vast majority of WWII pilots of all nations trained in biplanes.


And you think the warplanes the US supplied were worse?
Did the US supply biplanes then? In fact it was a British biplane that
crippled the Bismarck leading to its destruction.

Heres some more info on the Russian lend-lease

You think they deserved better planes?
** The Russians built and flew their own planes against the German
vasion - tens of thousand of them.

Your claims are utter crap.
What is a 'vasion'? They only buit a small percentage of the planes,
when compared to what the US supplied.
I found these figures for lend-lease items given to Russia on the
internet, accuracy not guaranteed

Aircraft.............................14,795
Tanks.................................7,056
Jeeps................................51,503
Trucks..............................375,883
Motorcycles..........................35,170
Tractors..............................8,071
Guns..................................8,218
Machine guns........................131,633
Explosives..........................345,735 tons
Building equipment valued.......$10,910,000
Railroad freight cars................11,155
Locomotives...........................1,981
Cargo ships..............................90
Submarine hunters.......................105
Torpedo boats...........................197
Ship engines..........................7,784
Food supplies.....................4,478,000 tons
Machines and equipment.......$1,078,965,000
Non iron metals.....................802,000 tons

Army boots.......................15,417,000 pairs

On that basis, the Russians built far more aircraft than the US gave them.


Russia wasn't the only country supplied though that program.
True, but thats where the majority of equipment supplied went
