Yes. I live in a southern shithole and i'd completely get it if America decided to bomb the entire place into a parking lot with no warnings.

No, please, bomb it into something other than a parking lot at least. The south already has way too fucking many of those.

America has invested a lot into bomb technology but we don't have one yet that will bomb something into, say, a library.
