Dangerous toys for dangerous boys

The US army has recently received a fully functional rail gun. RAIL GUN!

Instead of relying on chemical propellants — such as gunpowder — a rail gun uses magnetic “rails” to launch a solid, nonexplosive projectile at incredible speed. Theoretically, rail guns would be able to precisely strike targets at extreme ranges, and would negate the risks associated with carrying around tons of explosive ammo.

For those who find the Maglight doesn’t provide enough bad for your ass, you could try the flashlight that burns things.

The Torch is the world’s brightest and most powerful flashlight.
It is capable of melting plastic, lighting paper on fire within seconds, and if you like, fry an egg or a marshmallow on a stick.

And just cause it tickles my fancy, the Mass Effect saga has come full circle, with Jack Thompson actually supporting the game.

Oh, and Apple stock is dangerous.

    I would like a flashlight that burns things please. I would like to take it in my carry on bag when I fly and when my bag goes through security and they snoop around I would say….”oh it’s just a flashlight” (then I would pick it up)… “see” … (as I turn it on and shine it directly on to the person’s nose, crotch, chest, etc…depending on how much they upset me). Of course if they were a really nice security guard (which is highly unlikely), then I would pick it up and shine it on a guard who is abusing other passengers in the neighbouring lineup.
