Ami go home
Excellent, Now do every state in the US.
Moment “American representatives were seen walking around the city” they were outside the base? That would have been the moment to do the same to America as these tourists do to me and have them arrested directly… Shouldn’t be a problem legally, after all, it’s about national security and there have already been more than enough hostile statements and indirect announcements of war.
Usually American soldiers and military personnel are exempt from local policing. In Germany, they couldn’t be stopped for a traffic control or asked to identify themselves by German police, only US military police. There even was a guy that got away with murder because of some related issues.
Here’s the story:
Yeah, the lack of local accountability was a large part of why Trump “threatening” to pull the military out of Japan was a monumentally stupid bluff. Japanese people already hate the US military, because the average Japanese person’s perception of the US military is “drunk dude causes damage/hurts someone and flees back to base where he will never see any punishment.” It also came at a time when hardline conservatism and patriotism (bordering on jingoism) is increasingly popular in Japan. Japan basically went “fucking do it then.”
I was immediately reminded of the g20 summit in Hamburg (not because of America) Well…
I’d meet her, so as I could ask her how she can stand by these awful policies …but I’m not a woman. Or from Greenland.
Nah don’t even bother. If someone asked that, it would just be edited out of the recording. And it would still give VP a platform to talk.
Shunning is the way to go. It’s far more embarrassing.
True that. As I say…I’m not on the list, nor am I allowed to make large or important decisions alone.
what the fuck did they expect? a welcoming party to rival none other? With drumpf constantly going on about how he’s gonna take greenland? JFC. Fucking morons.
Putin’s men thought Ukrainians would welcome them with open arms too…
Putin also thought he could steamroll over Ukraine. 3 years and nearly a million russian troops later, Ukraine is still holding their own.
Obviously. I was just drawing a parallel between Putin’s and Trump’s propaganda.
I know. I was agreeing with you.
It wouldn’t surprise me if they did think that. They’re still stuck on American Exceptionalism and little self awareness. They pretend trump is JFK and we’re back in the Camelot era. Let that sink in.
Why were they issued visas?
No visas are needed between Europe and USA. EU will very soon begin an ESTA-like scheme, but that’s not in effect yet. And, since Greenland is not in EU, probably it won’t come into effect either.
Vance could therefore simply appear at the border and the one individual border guard is then alone responsible for deciding whether to allow or refuse entry for USA’s vice president.
I mean, it is a free world, and - unlike Trumpster - they do no discriminate. However, they are not required to treat them differently from any other person in the world, so they didn’t.
This how we feel in California.
You don’t invite foreign invaders, you shoot them between the eyes. See Ukraine.
Glad they got the hint.
Sorry, I think this was a mistake.
I think it would have been better for one household to welcome them warmly, say they were proud to have them in their home.
And when they showed up, sat down, had tea, had 100 greenlanders in with literal torches and pitchforks come in screaming obscenities of every kind and demanding they leave while streaming the whole thing.
Bonus points if their as detail draw their weapons, which are banned in greenland, so they end up in jail as a diplomatic incident.
In trumps first week of his first term he invited a dictator here and his security beat the fuck out of American protesters on American soil.
Nothing happened. They got on a plane and left.
Way too much. Just put a rug over the ice fishing hole in the living room and let the problem take care of itself.
Are they getting DOGE to look into whether the tickets were non-refundable?
When we grow enough as a nation to unilaterally fail welcome her back after her tour to find a house on soon to be annexed land I think my feeling of dread will ease.
It feels good to see fascists being treated appropriately.
Imagine an ice center in Greenland detaining the vp and his wife citing a decades old law. 👁️👄👁️
“Cultural visit” you mean junket? Honestly, I would love to go check out Pituffik, but I suspect she and I don’t have the same appreciation for the outdoors.
