I am in St Petersburg, Florida, and if you live here, you should be scared.

I'm a dual citizen living in St. Petersburg, Florida, with a Russian passport. My father is Russian, my mother is from Florida. I'm here visiting family for a few days and I have to tell you, I would not be in a high rise right now, even if my life depended on it. <br><br>I cannot believe the lack of concern, lack of action, and lack of urgency that is being portrayed in the United States about this incident. I've watched US news on TV, read US papers online, turned on Radios, and even scrolled through social media. And it is a VERY different picture than what I'm seeing and hearing on Russian media.<br><br>I'm sure you know that from Russian media's side, this is a US drone that violated Russian airspace in a war zone. Russian jet fighters were "trying" to force the drone to leave, but it went down. Russia is looking for the wreckage in the Black Sea as I speak. <br><br>What I saw in Crimea was horrific. Drone after drone after drone hitting apartment after apartment. I was there in the Summer visiting my Father, and I have never seen anything so tragic in my entire life. It was like watching an entire city burn to the ground. <br><br>I know many of you here in America are wondering if this is just a continuing hoax. Or a propaganda story without any merit. But I assure you, this is not. The way Putin commands his military, he will do anything to protect our country. And I understand that. And if he feels like the US has crossed a line, particularly when they are directly helping Ukraine with drones, this is just the beginning. <br><br>I know that many of you also are against the US supplying Ukraine with weapons for this war. And if you are, you should be even more worried than I am. The US is ridiculously outmatched on land, in the air, and at sea. I know that Russia has around 4,000 operational nuclear warheads. And I know that there are US eyewitnesses who say that the Russian pilots were just trying to get rid of the drone and it accidentally went down. But I also know that from out Russian news here, it would be crazy for our military to shoot down a US drone. And if they did, it was because it was in a war zone. <br><br>I know that the US doesn't stand a chance in this conflict. And if they think they can win, they are sorely mistaken. And I don't want to see ANYONE IN HARM. But at the rate, particularly at the rate that Biden is escalating this war, this doesn't look good. <br><br>And believe it or not, no one in our country wants a war with the US. We know that many of your lives depend on what's happening in our country. But if we're attacked, we will fight. That's just the reality. <br><br>I would do anything to prevent this war. I have family in both countries, and I don't want ANYONE to die. But the way that Biden is handling this is completely irresponsible. I don't know if he has any idea what he's doing. But I know that the minute that ANYONE on either side gets hurt, we may be too late. <br><br>So, if you are in a high rise or anything like that, PLEASE BE CAREFUL. If you need to get out of Dodge, do it. Because from what I've seen in Crimea, and from what I'm seeing in Russian media right now, this is nothing to play with. <br><br>And please, tell Biden to PLEASE be careful. No one wants to die. <br><br>Oh, and I'm sure that you know by now that I'm not American, so I apologize if I broke any rules.
