And tbh these are 100% the kind of people that would buy a gun where each cartridge costs $40

didn't somebody do some research a while back and discover there aren't actually any laws against owning a literal minigun (or gatling gun I can't remember) because there's so few of them in existence

I think all full auto weapons are regulated with the national firearms act, so they can just not give you the certification to have one

But I believe cracked or maybe something awful wrote an article about how there was no jurisdiction (at least at the time) that regulated flamethrowers

Yeah flamethrowers aren't "firearms" by the legal definition of the term, it's just a sprayer like a pesticide sprayer that instead sprays burning liquid

City governments up North have flamethrowers they keep on hand for emergency de-icing of roads Elon Musk sold a bunch of custom flamethrowers to his friends as a stunt

It's shocking that buying one is perfectly legal I guess But then, it's perfectly legal to buy all the makings of a Molotov cocktail (bottle, rag, fill up a gas can at the gas station)

Back in the day in the war between electric cars and gas powered ones, people argued that the internal combustion engine is inherently dangerous It overheats and explodes and shit all the time And even if it didn't, it's inherently dangerous to normalize buying and selling gas

We're all handling one of the most dangerous and volatile incendiary substances people have invented casually every day But whatever, gasoline won, the rest is history

I mean it was a different world in general back then, they were used to buying coal and oil and kerosene as fuel too, although gasoline is objectively more dangerous than any of the above
