#2 Ok,let's see if I understand the reasoning.
They don't want to shut down Mosques that preach hate,urge violent extremism, and encourage the murder of"Infidels".Because it would piss off Muslims same Muslims who are preaching hate,urging violent extremism, and encouraging the murder of"Infidels".
Man,Mr.Spock would blow a gasket trying to wrap his brain around that logic.

#4 I'm not aware of any transit systems ever blown up by Baptists. Did I miss something?

From what I can gather, some Europeans have a wide paranoid streak when it comes to American-style evangelicals. For example, the French anti-cult laws touted to be targeted on Scientology were ALSO intended to be used against evangelicals.

#5 Anyone RBers got decent Molotov Cocktail assembly instructions?

Careful, now. Your police might take the same line as the Australian police -- the use of a molotov cocktail by a Muslim is religious expression, while the posession of same by a non-Muslim is a breech of peace.

#6 #3: Anyone RBers got decent Molotov Cocktail assembly instructions?

1. Get glass quart bottle (Plastic bottles bounce, do not use)
2. fill with regular gasoline to four inches from the top (Use cheap gas)
3. Cut a cotton rag about 1 foot long and 4 inches wide, (Do not use synthetics, they melt )
4. Stuff heavy duty cotton rag in open mouth of bottle, be sure that rag touches gasoline, stuff tightly at bottle neck to prevent leaks.
5. To Use Properly, light rag, throw at hard surface to shatter bottle.

"What's the shelf life for that baby, RJ?"

They are best when used fresh. Good luck finding glass bottles.

#12 RJ - let me know where I can find the necessary instructions to fashion a decent Cluebat™ too. I fear we're doomed.

Posted by Howard UK 2005-12-16 11:24|| 2005-12-16 11:24|| Front Page Top

#13 Howard --

1) go to your nearby sports supplies shop, purchase a regulation wood baseball bat(the wood bit is important, so don't forget and buy an aluminum bat instead, ok?)

2) when you get home, dig up the wood engraving kit from the back of the shed. Use a pencil to write out the words "Clue Bat" in large, easy to read letters along the length of the bat. After the wood engraving thingy has properly heated up, use it to engrave the letters written in pencil, working carefully to ensure that no pencil marks can be seen afterward. Make sure to engrave deeply, as cleaning the Clue Bat after use can be a bit messy, and sometimes requires a bit of sanding to get out the worst dents.

Enjoy! ;-)

#16 I guess I'm a fool in the ways of IED's, what do the flakes of ivory (soap?) do?

Posted by bigjim-ky 2005-12-16 13:05|| 2005-12-16 13:05|| Front Page Top

#17 Soap flakes turn the gasoline into a jelly, making it virtually the same as napalm (sticky).

#18 Another side of the story, to defend against a "Molotov Coctail"

1, When you see a person light the wick, shoot them.
2, If you don't have a gun, but do have a knife or club, run swiftly toward the wick lighter, and attack.
3, if unarmed RUN, this is a short range weapon, which needs to be used quickly before the wick burns away. GET OUT OF RANGE. (IF THEY RUN AFTER YOU, SO MUCH THE BETTER, ODDS ARE THEY ARE GOING TO GET BURNED THEMSELVES WHILE RUNNING WITH A GAS SOAKED WICK FLAPPING ABOUT.)

#19 Anyone seriously interested in self-defense needs to get a copy of the U. S. Army Training manual TM31-210 available at gunshows, and used to be available by mail from the Pueblo Colorado office of publications (U. S. Government website, use at your own level of paranoia) but a short search didn't find it. Here's one source, Google TM 31-210 to find more sources

http://www.hi-vel.com/Catalog__17/Military_Manuals/military_manuals.html

A good source of self defense is a snap-stick, this is a spring with several coiled springs inside it that telescopes down to about 6 inches long and an inch in diameter, a flick of the wrist and it snaps out to be a spring loaded hi-tensle steel spring baton about a foot and a half long, bump it against the ground, and it telescopes back to a short pocket fitting spring, not really an offensive weapon because most folks (Except Cops) don't know just what it is.

Live safe, if guns are prohibited, and folks are being arrested for carrying a tree branch you gotta get sneaky.

#20 Remember THIS when you are engraving your CLUE BATâ¢:

Write backwards, so when the welts show up, the public can read CLUE BATâ¢ without having to use a mirror.

We have the same problem with the Saudi-funded mosques of hate and doom in the US as the Brits have. Our leaders have the same milqtoast attitudes. Only difference is the Brits have 'em springing up like daisies, toward critical mass. We are not there yet, but heading there.

#21 Howard, giving such instructions through Rantburg would get us all in the slammer. However, if you want to come over for a visit, just send me an email. I know a quiet piece of desert where we can practice.

#22 I quote my ESS instructor:

"There is no such thing as a dangerous weapon, there are only dangerous men. To a trained professional, even a shoestring is a weapon."

Practicing at home isn't necessarily the route to "trained professional", but it's better than nothing.

#24 Howard, I suggest that you send away to Iran for some IEDs. IEDs seem to be more common than glass bottles these days. Just tell them you need IEDs to clear some land for a new Jewish state. I'm sure they'll oblige. They're having a clearance sale on ballots too.
