My weapon of choice...next to the butter masher I use for home defense. (it's a heavy wooden mallet from the inside of a butter churn)

Interresting. I wonder if anyone's ever tested one against kelvar.

Sort of like being hit with a maul, penetration wouldn't be necessary. Otoh, ceramic plate armor?

I was talking about the bardiche, which turns out to be a poleaxe with about a four-foot pole:

Ah yes, the pole axe. Against Kevlar probably no penetration of the fabric, the person in it wouldn't escape undamaged.

Oh, absolutely. I don't understand why you aren't carrying your bardiche already. You might need it when your crocodile is sleeping.

I'm a garotte kind of guy, myself. Nothing quite as satisfying as slicing off someones noggin with piano wire. I take mine everywhere, even to teach Sunday school, because you just never know.

I want a Bofors twin 40mm mounted in the back of my Ford Ranger.

How about a Parrott gun?
Seems like overkill tho.
I was reading this great big book about putting your parrott down, and it said you could shoot them right there above the beak with the gun.
Or you could just hit them with the book.

Sorta back on topic. Starts out "peaceful"...

http://www.freep.com/story/news/poli...test/86778244/

This goes way too far in my opinion. For the record, I'm no fan of this pipeline. However...

If these idiots want to go to the Capitol building or other government building and protest, fine. If they want to go to the office building of the pipeline operators and protest, fine. But going to the AG's house and protesting goes a bit far. Going on the property and banging on the door and windows is beyond the pale.

In this case, the AG was out of state on gov't business. His wife was apparently the only one home at the time, and she was scared shitless by these ass holes.

If I were traveling and some jack asses showed up at my house, came onto my property and purposefully scared the hell out of my wife and/or kids, the SOB's would be sorry they were ever born when I got back home.
