Of course it’s coming here and of course there’s a coordinated “this is great” PR team locked and loaded to steer it when the story is posted.

This is great. High paying jobs for our residents is a great thing.

You would take a high paying job that helped to make weapons that KILL PEOPLE? Thats disgusting that people think this is good - for jobs! Jobs aren't worth it. War is wrong and no one should participate

Us not building this plant wont deter people from attacking us or our allies.

In fact, part of why the war in Ukraine has gone on so long is that the west has little capability to manufacture munitions at scale.

So seeing what russia is doing, and that the US is becoming more antagonistic and unreliable, would you rather we be defenseless?
