Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I'm no battle expert, but this seems entirely impractical in cost, ability, readiness, and effectiveness.

"Send out the gun dog!"

"Fuck it, duct tape this grenade to the Wish drone..."

I know someone will say it's for standardization and/or cost savings, but I love how it's always the jankiest setup.

Go drill a hole for a camera mount to it's head and glue a PTZ setup to it's back for the gun. It's like they just asked the security camera guy if he had any extra parts in their equipment closet and just ran with it.
