This movie is showing me that if nuclear war breaks out, it is acceptable to leave the grocery store with a full basket of unpaid-for-groceries
@MargaretSefton@writing.exchange I was a teenager in the 80s. The threat of nuclear war was VERY real, and persistent. We lived across the Red River from Barksdale AFB, which was a SAC base. It was a known priority target for the Soviet Union.
Our family plan for when the missiles started flying (provided we had enough warning), was to get in our cars, drive across the bridge, and get as close as possible to Barksdale. Not for protection. It was so we could be - hopefully - vaporized.
@TheLastOfHisName Now that's what I call a plan!
