Bigger guns won’t help

Dear Paranoid Ameriica,

Putting police men with fuck off huge machines guns on the street will not make you more safe, it will just make your populus more scared, meaning yet more draconian laws can be passed.

If your police men can’s kill a suicide bomber with their current arsonal of 9mm semi automatic pistols, having what looks to me like a fully auto M16 (correction, aparently it is an M4) will not help, it will just result in collateral damage aka. innocent people’s facing getting a 5.56×45mm NATO through the face.

If the collateral damage’d people are lucky, it’ll only be on three-shot burst mode, and not full auto.

Love and hugs,

coldclimate

PS. I’m probably not coming back for a while, you kids really scare me at the moment

    light machine guns … very good for intercepting hijacked planes .. american airports in my experience are the scariest places in the world at the moment.

    Incidentally just reading a book called legacy of ashes the history of the cia… bloody good and explains the need for numbskulls with semi automatics. ie. they dicked around in so many countries that now everybody hates them.

    fuck it let them all shoot each other, save a few poor muslim families in far flung corners of the world … etc etc
