  • This lets me know that you have never experienced a long term shot gun owner. Shotguns do not explicitly fire only shot or slugs. They never have. It is actually quite easy to tailor shells to a target. Someone with fishing line, a soldering iron, and a box of cheap pellets can make a net that will take out all commercial drones (or any of the 4 propeller style). And on top of that, there are widely available (albeit expensive) commercially available anti-drone shells. If you look in all of the footage of Russians being killed via drone, they all have a rifle with some kind of optic. These are very, very bad at shooting an agile flying target. Every hunter on the entire planet can tell you that. You know what’s great at that? A shotgun with the appropriate gauge and shell. Look, it isn’t that hard to hunt birds at over 50 yards (that’s 150’ as you so inaccurately put things in the range estimate) with a solid appropriate turkey gun. You have displayed a large amount of ignorance here.




  • Sigh… I had to do it:

    [Title: “A Taco for the Ages” - Taco Bell Ad Script]

    Opening Scene:

    (Historical figures sit around a modern Taco Bell table, a mix of respectful lighting and serene ambiance, bridging time and culture.)

    Voiceover: “Throughout history, great minds have gathered to inspire change, to push the boundaries of justice, to create a better future for us all. And today, they come together to experience something else transformative: the Doritos Locos Taco.”


    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (taking his first bite): “Now, this is a taste of something different. Injustice anywhere may be a threat to justice everywhere, but flavor everywhere—now, that’s a cause I can support. It reminds me that small acts of joy are powerful. They bring people together.”

    Rosa Parks (smiling as she tries a bite): “You know, I took a seat once that changed things, and I’d do it again right here for this taco. The right to flavor, the right to joy—those are things worth standing up for, too.”

    Mahatma Gandhi (pausing, contemplative after taking a bite): “This is simple, yet bold. It speaks to the spirit of creativity and humble beginnings, and to the power of something new to unite us. A peaceful flavor revolution, indeed.”

    Cesar Chavez (nodding): “This brings people to the table, just like we did in the fields. Fairness and respect, community and flavor—together, they remind us of what we’re fighting for.”

    Malala Yousafzai (smiling, takes a bite): “It’s amazing how one bite can change your whole view of what’s possible. A taco that breaks boundaries—it’s a reminder that change is everywhere, even in what we choose to share with each other.”


    Voiceover: “Some ideas are more than just flavor; they’re a celebration of what we can achieve together. At Taco Bell, we’re proud to serve moments of joy, community, and connection, one Doritos Locos Taco at a time.”

    Screen fades to black, Taco Bell logo appears.

    Voiceover: “Taco Bell: Feeding your desire for flavor, community, and change.”
