Inexpensive to produce and simple to operate, the Panzerfaust gave a single infantryman a weapon that could take out enemy armor.

I want one. Loaded up with canister, it would take care of ANTIFA looters and arsonists quite handily.

There is a market for these in Portland and Seattle.

Trying to mine FReepers for money, despite Jim Robinson stating this is not what FR is about.

It's about bringing discussion here, to this site, not redirect FReepers to some lame-o blogger site.

If the material being discussed on the blogger site were any good they wouldn't need to mine FReepers for clicks and impressions.
