Is North Korea going to bomb the United States?
I haven't heard about North Korea in a couple of weeks. Yeah, I don't have T.V. or anything and I'm gone a lot anyway. Last I heard, N. Korea was threatening to test bombs or something...IDK! It bothers me though and I didn't see any articles on my homepage today about them and wondered what happened. What's going on with North Korea now? Anybody know?

Yeah, go ahead... Bomb one of the world's super powers... see what happens.

Sounds to me like the media scare-mongering is getting to you!
If you were the leader of a country, you wouldn't spend millions on weaponry without testing them first, right? That's like if the US bought a ton of warplanes but didn't do test flights.
North Korea was testing bombs. The main issue (why everyone was up in arms... no pun intended) is that they were testing them in Chinese airspace.
On a smaller scale, that's like if you bought a gun and were test-shooting it through your neighbour's backyard. Kinda threatening, but nobody gets hurt. Your neighbour would probably get angry and tell you to stop.
Many countries have nuclear weaponry. The US has more than any other, but for some reason wants everyone else to give up theirs.
Just look at it this way: Canada and the US have not been friends forever. There was a time in history when you had nuclear-tipped missiles pointed over our cities for "intercepting aircraft". Especially considering that you guys were all twitchy from the Cold War, and feeling a little gun-happy, that made us nervous, but we didn't stop being your allies.
North Korea has a long history of being bullies. They're a noisy little country, but they're all talk. If they were to attempt to bomb the US, they'd be squashed so fast their heads would spin. They're under careful surveillance. The moment they took one step out of place, they'd be suppressed. So no need to worry.
Something that might make you feel better (or at least give you a laugh) is watching Team America: World Police. It's great for giving a little perspective to the situation :)

I doubt it. While they could probably take us out in 3 shots depending on their weapons, they probably won't do shit.
North Korea sucks anyway.

North Korea wouldn't dare fuck with the United States.

Relax, they're not going to bomb the U.S.
Just because they're testing bombs doesn't mean they're going to send them to the U.S.
We test bombs, but do you see us bombing North Korea? Ok, so that's not the best logic against them bombing us, but they aren't going to.
Besides, if they were going to, it's probably not going to be your city, unless you live in NYC or Los Angeles or some populous city.
