You CAN own flamethrowers?! I suppose they're not going to get much use as implements of mass murder since they're a bit too difficult to get into public places unchallenged.The_Kodu said:Damn Lasers would likely be less destructive. I mean you're essentially shooting energy which would burn and cauterise the wound. Plasma you have a point with that stuff would be nasty and burn like hell.Thomas Barnsley said:Sucks that these still happen. I'm not American so I don't know exactly how I'd weigh in on the issue, but I'm certainly glad to so few gunmen running around where I live in Australia.
I was wondering actually; for all the anti-gun control people, say laser weaponry became mass produceable. Or energy, or plasma, or anything with more destructive capability than a projectile based gun. Would you want restrictions on those?
The closest we have so far to such things are flamethrowers. I assume they're illegal right?
Also despite not being from the USA, I happen to know in US lawn in certain states you can legally own a flamethrower.
Still, you'd think if these people were really keen on getting attention one of them would try it eventually. Such a stunt would probably get you your own media nickname.
Maybe that's what will happen if this doesn't get fixed. They'll get more and more 'creative' in an effort to out-do eachother. Maybe they'd form teams, like gangs but for anarchy and attention seeking instead of business and brotherhood. America would get the apocalypse it's fanticised about for so long.
