You must not get a product which is made or adapted to cause a person injury.

Wasp spray?

don’t cross us ; if you do, the survivors will be writing about what we did here for ten thousand years.

200 years from now, I want their children's children's children
to cower and cringe in fear whenever they hear the sounds of jet engines overhead
because their legends tell of fire from the sky.

I want them to hide in dark caves and holes in the earth,
shivering with terror whenever they hear the roar of diesel engines
because the tales of their ancestors talk about metal monsters
crawling over the earth, spitting death and destruction.

I want their mothers to be able to admonish them with
"If you don't behave, the Pale Destroyers will come for you",
and that will be enough to reduce them to quivering obedience.

I want the annihilation to be so complete that their mythology
will tell them of the day of judgment when the stern gods from across the sea
.. the powerful 'Mericans .. destroyed their forefathers' wickedness.

What? You wanna get in trouble with the environmentalists? Better to sign up for a correspondence course in plumbing. That will give you an excuse to carry around a heavy wrench.

Well, during the good weather months, I carry around a gym bag (containing my catcher's mitt and mask) and a baseball bat. During colder months, I carry the bag with skates and a hockey stick.

Until the American people who own guns and bibles had enough.

Yes, and the B-one is capable of delivering the latter.

Awesome plane. Have seen it on night take off with full afterburner and felt the power of the vibration. Simply Awesome. And the Crews, incredible.

Well, I mean come on. Just look at the descendant of the crown, Prince Charles. That has to tell you something.

Well, look, I think its time they think about, oh, I don’t know, arming their street cops.

But she then added: “This might be some of our solution to our issues.”

I suspect that even one instance of an armed civilian popping a jihadi with a knife might go a very long way to restoring public confidence. The conviction that the people are happier when the State has a natural monopoly on violence is something that really needs some serious reconsideration in certain quarters.
