N. Korea just fired a missile over Okinawa.

Imagine if a missile went flying over Long Island? Or Ireland?

What is the appropriate response? I live in Japan. Does N. Korea just get the "first shot"?

How do we know the next one won't land in Osaka? Or land in Okinawa?

I'm a pacifist, but seriously. What should the response be?

This fat boy is going to end up starting a war eventually.

All it takes is for one of these missiles to malfunction and hit South Korea or Japan directly and all hell would break loose.
