  I mean, they make manual pole cutters. They’re not that expensive and operate silently. No reason to activate the shit spotter microphones

    I recently watched a video about the quickest and quietest way to cut through thin wall tube, that had absolutely nothing to do with cameras what so ever. They determined portable band saws were the most practical method; balance being relatively quiet compared to other power tools while being the quickest. Manual tools were most quiet but the slowest which leaves you vulnerable.

      I wonder how much a used Jaws of Life are. That would go through them like butter. Silent Butter, even!

        The jaws themselves are huge plus you’d need a hydraulic power supply. Not very incognito.

  “Shoot”!? I’m American too, but not all problems can/should be solved with guns…

      I did specify “should”! Hypothetically, cutting it down would be:

      • more effective
      • quieter
      • risking fewer charges
      • more permanent

        Hey, don’t worry about how people get results, just be thankful that they’re willing to do something.

        Risking fewer charges may actually not be true given how insane the gun laws are here.

    This is why populism works against us. We are always trying to high-road everything.

      I meant like, a gun is not the best tool for the job. In theory…
