Thursday’s his day in the barrel! 
I’m looking for a cite, but the Danish Government already threatened to revoke their flag if they threw the acid from their ship. So I imagine there is already an establishment for the guns.
The whalers of course are not playing. They already showed that by turning the L-Rad on the helicopter.
Th SS are kind of stupid in that they wonder why the Japanese might be so hostile when they are attempting to destroy the livelihoods of thousands of people. That this doesn’t even impact on their moral calculus is kind of interesting.
I don’t doubt you, but they were throwing acid from the ship on Friday’s show. So, if they are going to flaunt the rules why not flaunt them well?
Air cannons are not regulated by the BATFE; but AFAIK Steve Irwin isn’t subject to U.S. laws anyway, unless it is in U.S. waters. To diverge a little, you can buy a blow gun (in effect, a miniature air cannon) through the mail in the U.S. But in California, possession of a blow gun is a crime.
Similarly, under Dutch law an air cannon might (and I don’t know if it is) be considered a ‘firearm’ if it is used to launch a missile against persons, vessels, or property. So it might not be a violation of ‘rules’, but an actual crime to use an air cannon.
OTOH, they seemed to have no problem using a lifeline launcher in an earlier episode.
Yes, though they had already received a communication that they could not throw bottles from the deck of the Steve Irwin. They decided to break that when they felt they were going to be attacked due to the escalating nature of the aggression they had received on this campaign. Once they broke the rule for self-defense it was easier to justify it offensively to themselves and they did it. But they received a ruling on the show from the Danish government that they had decided it was not ok for the Steve Irwin to throw from the deck earlier in the season.
I think there is no where to go here they need a come to Jesus moment where they decide whether that are at really real war or not. The Japanese were willing to kill their helicopter pilot and his accompanying cameraman with an LRAD. They threw brass nuts and bolts at them, things that might actually hurt them. So they either need to decide to upgrade their weapons or go home.
They have a machine shop on the Steve Irwin, it would be easy for them to make a potato gun on the ship if they’ve got the PVC.
What! The other guys get days off!
They’re saving the PVC for the next time they’re in drift ice to reinforce the hull!
CMC fnord!
Yeah, that’s probably it. 
A glove slap in a little old face will
Get you satisfaction.
Glove slap ba-a-beee …
(Glove slap, baby)
Glove slap, baby, glove slap!
Glove slap, I don’t take crap!
Glove slap, shut your big yap.
Whoa!!! When was THIS?!?!
Um, why not use those donations to um, help this guy get into rehab? Or is that too easy?
Also, the Ottawa Panhandler’s Union is in fact a front to raise money for Operation Rescue. SmashTheState, speaking as an official representative of the OPU, has stated this several times in other threads.
Alessan won that thread by post 5 anyway.
Damn. Telemarketers? That’s a subset of people know as, ‘people between jobs’, most are doing it for the paycheck and no other reason, because the need to eat and pay rent. Burning Telemarketers is just straight up burning the proles.
Ah, thanks. I remember those threads – especially the first one. I first read that thinking he was a slightly-less-nutty version of the guy who asked how fast you had to turn the Earth backwards to go back in time. Rather than a radical, dickhead anarchist conspiracy theorist.
I love how he calls telemarketers “sociopaths”. It’s cute.
However, you have to realize that every time you’re mean to him it gets him off. He’s like a flagellating monk - it’s what he wants you to do, because then he’s accomplished his mission. He’s an honest to god real life troll - he isn’t trolling here in message board terms, he’s sincere. But in real life his only pleasure and self worth comes from irritating the fuck out of people. It’s sad, but it also makes me want to kick him in the balls.
Evidently, in the classless, non-fascist (oddly enough, not spelled with a K) future after the revolution, freely engaged in personal commerce will be fine, as long as you don’t call Smashy when he would prefer you not to… or he will burn you alive. Or, at least, try to solicit your murder on the internet like the brave anarchist organizer that he is.
(Annoying people on the street for cash is fine though, just don’t use a phone and try to trade that cash for services/goods, then there’s the whole being burned alive thing.)
Hah. Telemarketers are just panhandlers successful enough to own phones.
Well, the panhandlers don’t usually intrude into my actual home like a phone call. He’s just jealous.
Dear billfish678,
Do you have any basis or evidence to support this accusation?
The internet can sometimes appear as a place where you can get away with saying many things, however, I’m not sure you are aware of the scope of an accusation such as this, and how this post in cyberspace has serious legal implications in the very real and physical world.
wow, that is so wild. That other guy disappeared when he was getting his ass kicked. Now this other person shows up, who apparently just registered today and this is first post, and by sheer coincidence he is making the same argument as the guy who got his ass kicked.
Amazing. What do you think the chances are?
There’s a name for this, but I can’t quite get my foot into it.
