How about we test cosmetics on crocs ? Then the poor wildebeasts are safe , plus all of the bunnies and rats in the labs . No one seems too sympathetic to the crocs , so nobody will give 2 sh1ts about screwing them up in labs .
HoH - I want to hear more about the hamsters shot out of the spud gun . How fast do they come out ? Could you kill a deer with one ?
Originally posted by Moldy CrowI don't have any empirical evidence to support that a deer can be killed by firing a hamster at it out of a spud gun. A standard PVC pipe spud gun can probably only put a hamster out at 250ft/sec and if this was a pointed object like an arrow you'd probably kill a deer. However, hamsters are dull and would probably only bruise the beast.

Still I'm confident that if we froze the hamsters in special projectile molds and constructed a heavy walled hamster cannon with a rifled barrel we'd get some interesting results. I'm drawing up plans now and plan to use propane gas instead of hairspray as a propellent, I can rob the electric ignition off my bar-b-q as well. I would suspect that we can launch hamster/ice projectiles at upwards of 700ft/sec. A head shot with the hamster cannon is more than likely to kill a deer. I'm sketching a semi-auto, rotating barrel, tube fed model complete with beefed up remote control car internals to provide a remote targeting mechanism. With the proper propellant I am confident that we can cut a deer in two with a couple of hamster rounds travelling at well over 1500 ft/sec.
Lab trials will be necessary to refine the mechanism and document wound chanels with varying projectiles. As I am assured that abortion will soon be outlawed, I plan on using surplus unwanted babies as targets.

I think you're on the wrong track with the unwanted babies though . I think they'd make fine projectiles for a larger bore weapon , especially when frozen .
Originally posted by FersbooHave you ever smelled a wildebeast? Eat the fcukers! That's what I say.
Me and the Wife saw an IMAX film about the African Savannah, which followed in part the migration of a herd of wildebeasts. The wildebeasts had to cross a crocodile infested river in both directions of the annual migration. The crocs slaughtered them. Totally inhumane. Someone should build a bridge for those poor wildebeasts; think of the mental anguish ...[text shortened]... the wildebeasts suffer.

See the Proctor & Gamble is evil thread for context.
Originally posted by Moldy CrowYou'd need a howitzer sized weapon and I expect this to exceed my budget, even if they are giving away the babies for free. Perhaps dismembered babies would do the trick? I, for one, would not want to be hit with a frozen baby arm traveling at 1500ft/sec. I suppose you could make some sort of baby mortar rather than a conventional cannon. This would allow you to launch frozen babies a considerable distance, but, you probably won't have much luck killing deer unless they'll group together and stand still for you. A trebuchet might be more efffective and you could coat the babies in tar, light them on fire and have very effective screaming and flaming projectiles.... the horror...

Originally posted by Hand of HecateThat's why it needs federal funding . This could be a wonderful weapon of war . Imagine the poetry of killing women and children with frozen baby projectiles instead of daisy-cutters and conventional explosive devices . But I think it could also be a tool for peace . Frozen baby canons could be used to trigger avalanches , mud slides , and scare migrating wildebeast away from crocodile infested rivers .

This could be the greatest gift to mankind since dynomite , the internet , or Pamella Anderson's t!tt!es .
Originally posted by Moldy CrowPerhaps you're right. For the sake of humanity I'll build the cannon. Judging by the teen pregnancy rate, I'm not likely to run out of ammo.

Originally posted by FersbooWell, my main concern is that they will breakup at high velocity when fired from the howitzer. This is primary reason I like the flaming baby trebuchet approach... lower velocity and higher shock factor.
But what about the children!????:'(:'(:'(:'(:'(:'(
I'm thinking parachuting explosive rigged babies and toddlers behind enemy lines will be very effective. A handful of babies with a couple of pipe bomb's and diapers packed with ball bearings would make for considerable carnage. Seriously do you really want to mess with someone that drops exploding babies on you? There will be peace in our time... I should be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
