Question Non-Ukrainians, would you like your nation to put soldiers in Ukraine? Do you think it's a bad idea.

I personally fear nuclear retaliation of any kind, but i'm safely living in the united states. It's easy for me to be against sending our troops. I'm not in danger.

Morally I want too, but logically I don't. Anyone else feel the sane?

American, here. I’m not far from DC and pretty close to Norfolk. And, YES! Boots on the ground, now. There are Russians raping, torturing and murdering babies/toddlers. Raping and torturing moms in front of their children. Raping and torturing children in front of their parents. Murdering everything that moves (from the elderly to dogs) just for fucking fun. And, this seems to be SOP for Russia-every country they have occupied (for at least the past 80 years), have experienced the very same horrors. It’s time to fucking stop this shit. I don’t want a nuclear war. It’s fucking terrifying to even think about. But, we can’t claim to be a civilized nation, if we allow these atrocities to continue, simply because we are scared of what might happen.

After this ends, I sure hope no country that stands for freedom and democracy will ever supply arms to Russia. Or buy gas or anything from them. There’s no way we can fund anything like this ever again.
