Show me how you could kill someone with a .177 caliber BB and a bike pump.


stuff this in your browser http://www.google.com/search?q=kgb+ricin+bb

from the rest of your post, it is clear that you have perfect
incomprehension of the problem at hand.

Until you have acquired an at least passing acquaintance with
counterterrorism issues, let your silence spare us the pain of
witnessing your self-humiliation.

In seven years in the military with the M-16 the primary weapon, I
never fired the weapon on full automatic. Makes a fine weapon under
almost all practical circumstances on semi-automatic. And the firing
pin is easier to clean at the end of the day...

Lets face it. Bin Laden kick our ass really. Look at how we live now. We
invade countries and we are live with no privacy and the list goes on and
on. Bush wants us to live in fear so he can get re-elected.

JMHO,

om...
I carry air pump in my bag all the time in case for flat tire.
I was going to city courtm and in the security check entrance, I was
unable to pass the x-ray check. The guard was asking me in loud voice
"What is that thing in your bag?' I said it's air pump for my bike.
I opened the bag and showed the security guard. She did not believe
that. She ordered the next security guard to check it out. When I
explained to
him, he said ok this is the air pump. I have had to demonstarte how
air pump worked. This never happended before 9/11. This is too much
stricting.

It's not like they've actually got any ammunition when they're
carrying those things around the airport. They would still make a
pretty mean club though....

Any anyway, the current M-16 is not fully automatic in the conventional
sense, is it? I think it's got a semi-automatic mode and 3-round burst
mode. There's no "machine gun" mode.
