    They are always making threats. Now is no different. They can't really hit North America with their current technology. The real danger is if they attack South Korea. That would pull US troops into another war.

    No, you should not be worried.

    The threats are all talk, with nothing to back them up.

    The NKs have fired 1 missile that actually worked. The rest blew up on the pad, failed and had to be destroyed or failed and just fell into the sea.

    The NKs have performed 3 nuclear tests. None of them have been as large as the Hiroshima weapon, And none of the tests were of a warhead. They were just test devices

    So they have no missiles and no warheads.

    They have no ships with the range to reach the USA, even if they were on a one way trip

    Ditto for aircraft

    So total threat to the continental US - zip

    The NKs can cause a lot of casualties on the Korean Peninsula. They can give the city of Seoul a real bad time and kill a lot of innocent people.

    But hit you in Southern California - not going to happen.

    Climb out of your foxhole and have a nice day at the beach. The most dangerous thing you will encounter is the loose nuts behind the steering wheels of the other cars on the freeway.

    And you face those every day

    Delusional international locations are continuously a severe probability even with the undeniable fact that this isn't any longer a severe direct probability to the USA of a. Korea, nicely that's yet another tale. on an identical time as northern Korea's protection rigidity is comparatively liable to that of Korea, Seoul could be demolished even with out nukes and the time from launch to strike could be short so defenses could no longer artwork.

    They have no weapons capable of reaching Hawaii, let alone California. We know that, they know that.

    This hasn't stopped them from making threats for the past several decades.

    Basically N. Korea is like that annoying little brat in the neighborhood who does nothing but stick his tongue out at everyone because it makes him feel big, strong and important but in reality, if someone actually responded and punched him, he'd be dead.

    If you live in Southern California, there are a whole bunch of other things you need to worry about.

    Anythings possible... no one can tell the future though... Dont worry about anything like that, it just creates stress in already stressful places.. If it happens, worrying wont stop it.

    there could be an accidental discharge of guns . but they are not that stupid to actually attack.
