Any sick minds out there?

[William Tell II]

Hmmmm. As a conservative in Europe, I can tell you that the best defense against an aggressive neighbor is guns in every home with trained shooters. It doesn't hurt to mine your own mountain passes and be in a position to damage any military advance. Don't sell Finland short -- it fought a war with the Bolsheviks governing the Soviet Union (a slightly different population group than what is ordinarily thought of as Russian) and for all practical purposes, it won.
