[QUOTE="Victim, post: 4175041, member: 78"] [i]More references to specific people that I just admited I don't know, or know about. Wonderful. If you could make a comparison to a firearm, antitank rocket or something... Even if people disagree about the particular effectiveness of any given piece of hardware, it'd at least be something. Hmm, a slab of concrete. But thrown/launched how hard? I don't think I could ignore a concrete slab hittting me though. It might not hurt me at all, depending on how fast it was moving.
