These people would be so funny, if they weren't so dangerous.
Kinda like chimps, they're funny at the zoo, but give them machine guns
hell Chimps are scary without them. Have you read the recent story about the massive chimp civil war going on?
Obviously it'd be dangerous regardless but it got me thinking....does a chimp have the fine motor control to operate a firearm?
If there's ever been a finer time to fuck around and find out I wouldn't know... Being European, getting access to enough guns for a proper study is impossible for me. Of course we can just throw a single gun into a single enclosure, but that wouldn't produce reliable results. But if somebody living in a place with laxer gun laws would get on board, I'd let them get their name on the article as number two and not et al.
Oh, that sounds fun. Sounds like something the RNC would love for the conventions. Go to support the 2nd amendment afterall.
Made me think of wolves and sheep.
Which in turns make me think of Billy Simons Jr's "they made a pig the pilot"... Guess that next on the playlist
