    America is a Gun Brian Bilston

    England is a cup of tea. France, a wheel of ripened brie. Greece, a short, squat olive tree. America is a gun.

    Brazil is football on the sand. Argentina, Maradona’s hand. Germany, an oompah band. America is a gun.

    Holland is a wooden shoe. Hungary, a goulash stew. Australia, a kangaroo. America is a gun.

    Japan is a thermal spring. Scotland is a highland fling. Oh, better to be anything than America as a gun.

        Worked pretty well on those mice. Shame about my house falling down because of all the bullet holes.

    Would a blank still kill the mouse/rat?

    • Warl0k3@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

      At that range, absolutely. A blank will blow a sizable hole in a rat or mole. People die every year from the perception that blanks are “safe”; aside from any barrel debris or wadding that may be ejected, they are still completely lethal at very close ranges because of the pressure wave.

      At that range, probably.

      But you could defintely run this with shotshells full of rat shot, and that would upgrade it from ‘probably’ to ‘certainly’ while still being reasonably safe-ish.

    Imagine the first night in a large apartment complex after that one pest control company set up shop.

      It’s funny? I think I may have seen it in a textbook many years ago as an example of the patent boom that happened after the Industrial Revolution in the US.

      • Turret3857@infosec.pub ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        There was like a very specific reason I remember this. I just dont remember the reason. I feel like its related to something significant and the only thing jumping out at me is James Garfield, but I’m not sure why.

    I think someone may have misinterpreted the word “trap”.

      What mousetrap do you have that isn’t lethal? We have poison, the classic snapping bone crusher, the drown-o-matic, and the glue of death. Surely the Rodent Fusillader 4000 wouldn’t be out of place on that list.
