      He said if he gets assassinated he left orders to obliterate Iran. I’m still looking for the downside, but so far it looks like a great deal.

        I’d say igniting a world war would be a pretty major downside…

        Not to mention that the people of Iran do not deserve to be “obliterated.”

      I’d say that it’s probably one of the easier places, actually, because post-9/11, there’s a lot of security at the Super Bowl, whether-or-not a President is there. Like, they already have overhead marksmen and airspace restrictions and stuff, which is the sort of stuff that you’d put on the President at an event.

      I believe that the Super Bowl is considered to be a potential target because of its high visibility.

      IIRC, even before that, Tom Clancy had one of his books involve terrorists blowing up the Super Bowl with a small nuclear weapon.

      kagis

      Yeah, The Sum of All Fears.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sum_of_All_Fears

      The terrorists’ plan is to detonate the weapon at the Super Bowl in Denver while simultaneously staging a false flag attack on U.S. military forces in stationed in Berlin by East Germans disguised as Soviet soldiers.

              Yes… Because a generally liked pop singer and a highly controversial world leader have the same likelihood for being assassinated.

                  Ok so that’s 1 for assassinated pop stars… And a couple hundred assassinated world leaders. Or 4 presidents if you wanna limit yourself to just the US and it’s relatively short history.

                  … I never said she wasn’t? I simply find it comical that you think a pop star has a better security detail than the sitting president of the United States lol.

        It depends on the funding of the aggressor. A lone dude isn’t going to have a chance. A national asset would have access to the means to take him out, but the risk is the CIA might find out and blow their cover.

    I do find it odd no sitting president has before. I get the Super Bowl is relatively new, but it kinda shocks me no other president has.

      A quick search shows on average a box at the Superbowl costs between $750,000-$2 million.

      The President makes $400,000 a year.
      They can’t sit in the stands, so the reality is no president should be able to afford to go to the game.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.

Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.

No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.

All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
