    Its not 1%.

    It’s not even 0.01%

    You could try it once a second for the rest of your life, and it still wouldn’t go off.

    You’d just damage it at the most. Maybe trigger a safety system which will need to be reset before it can be armed again.

    Nobody is saying it’s a good idea, it’s just a complete non issue.

        Oh, okay then. Yeah sure, I made it up. It’s a 90% chance and we’ve just been exceptionally lucky.

          I like to believe that throughout the last century the number of morons shooting any form of projectile at armed nuclear warheads was minimal, but you’re certainly making that harder to believe.

            Well, sure, but it doesn’t change the facts on the ground that you can shoot whatever you like at a nuke and it’s exceptionally unlikely to explode.

            But if you just want to scream “bullshit” for no reason in the face of the facts then I guess there isn’t much point in continuing. Not sure why you just choose to believe whatever you want, but I guess I can’t stop you.
