Awesome, but instead of that wussy nerf gun, I'm going to hook it up to this:

t1.gstatic.com
and finally take care of the opossum that keeps getting in my back yard.

I want to see 20 or 30 of those set up in a handball court, and play the world's first live action tower defense game.

But what to use to simulate the invading alien hordes?

You pussy kids with your nerf and airsoft "guns". When I was a kid we had BB gun wars, and it wasn't over until someone lost an eye.

/actually the only real injury we ever had was when Greg got shot in the dick at contact range. His mom called an ambulance.

The longshot is fun. It is absolutely massive, far bigger than it needs to be, but amusing for it. Design isn't great, but works. If you are a DIY type is can be modded to have a pump handle and a better barrel for better range and faster reload.

As a proud mother of two boys, I can tell you that these kinds of assault gun videos, even in a joking matter should not be encouraged. Children see these videos that end up glorifying violence and go on to have terrible social adjustment difficulties in school.

Which is why I have decided not to allow my boys to use any kind of "toy weapon" or objects made from sharp plastic that can injure or destroy eyes. They have been limited to toys made from organic materials, which quite frankly, are safer than imported toys from the Chinese. I plan on writing a letter to the author of this in hopes he will remove it from the internet where children can see it.

That it did. I was glad for that. An assclown in my old office used to like to fire his at will. fark, was it noisy. Was so happy whenever it jammed.

Yes, fine, people will "laugh out loud" and poke fun at what should obviously be a serious issue, but if you look at the statistics online, 63 percent of preventable accidents that occur to children involve "toy guns". This is an easily preventable statistic; when I was a child, boys had no need of toys like this, they used a little thing called "imagination" and frankly, that's all children need at all. A willow branch and a little creativity can be just as entertaining as something like this terrible "toy".

0/10.

What's terrifying is that, even though I know you're just trolling for bites, your post is almost verbatim what my mom decreed for me and my brother. No toy guns, not violent toys of any type, no toys that could be "made" violent (legos)...hell, I wasn't allowed to see "Bambi" till I was 12 because of the violence.

Of course, at 30, now I play with swords and guns for a living, and help out part-time at a local gun store, all after leaving the Army. So you folks at home can see how well this sort of shiat turns out.

How it used to be:

Carlos Hathcock (May 20, 1942 - February 23, 1999) was a United States Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant sniper with a service record of 93 confirmed kills,...

Early life

Hathcock was born in Little Rock, Arkansas on May 20, 1942. He grew up in rural Arkansas, living with his grandmother after his parents separated. He took to shooting and hunting at a young age, partly out of necessity to help feed his poor family.

Wait, you're serious.

My mom tried the same tactic, starting when I was age 1. Everytime I made a toy gun out of sticks, she yelled at me. Everytime I wanted to fight or play in a violent way, she spanked me. On my fifth birthday, my uncle gave me a set of Go-Bots. She said I was so happy that I cried, at which point she gave up and let me have war toys.

I'm now 28. There has been enough time and distance that I can appreciate a toy like the Nerf Vulcan without worrying that it will raise a generation of orphaned child solders. If you want to protect your children against the glamour of warfare, take them to meet some real Iraq and Afghanistan vets.

Tip: It might not be a good idea to mention "children using their imagination" as an argument on a site mainly full of men who grew up pre-Internets porn. It just brings up a lot of bad memories.

and then you kick 'em out of the house for playing with a toy gun at a friends house.

good trolling is about getting people to take your bullshiat seriously, not ridiculing you until you shoot yourself in the throat.
