20% off on Black Friday!!!

Such a deal!

Neat toy.

I’m reminded of Gregor Hines in Best Defense. He touches up a flame paint job with a flamethrower.

Would’ve worked on the Bronx Thruway.

A poorly thought out crime.
Might want to stick to being honest.

Flamthower ,
Big Screen TV or
A new AR...

Life has gotten Rough!

Note to self: stay away from women who have actual flame throwers. I dated a couple who had metaphorical flame throwers, but none that would achieve Fahrenheit 451 temps.

[Gamecock]

Flamethrower? I’ll give her style points!

[Figment]

Cops should carry those instead of taser. One blast off to the side should convince anyone to surrender peacefully

[Bonemaker]

Cool...I only live about 10 minutes from there.

[Karliner]

Hell yeah at least she did it in style!

[ClearCase_guy]

Put a flamethrower in my hands, and every Friday will be black Friday.

[GnuThere]

She looks like a bitter unhappy person - who must have debt problems, to try a stupid stunt like this.
Someone in the comments asked, “What did her last husband die of? Smoking in bed?”

[TChad]

Amazing. Unless this is a scam, it is actually possible to purchase a flamethrower on the internet.

$1,599.00–$1,750.00 for the X15 flamethrower alone. The X15 comes in six colors.

I want one too! But here in California the liberals have even made potato guns illegal so I’m sure it’s flame out.

[Lurker]

I’m about 20 minutes down the road. Can’t wait to follow this case.

[Axenolith]

It’s not, they’re legal pretty much everywhere.

I posit this national story as the beginning of handwringing and pearl clutching over it so some douchebag politicians can “do something about this critical problem”.
