    They said the injuries were not life threatening. If they were then it wouldn't be a non-lethal pistol now would it. I generally don't discuss philosophy when buying beer. Now I know why.

    "What is a nonlethal pistol? "

    It is what I will own, when ammo finally shows up on the shelf for $10 per round.

    When i was in Norway for two months in 1988 I had an opportunity to taste some unlabeled black market vodka direct from the USSR. The woman whose apartment I shared kept it in her freezer (and old time ice box actually). Based on that taste I doubt they would waste vodka in that way. :)

    Just to clarify so that it's fully understood:
    The use of firearms *is* a form of Argumentum Ad Baculum and therefore is an improper form of argument.
    Please limit your arguments to supportable facts and accepted forms.
    Thank you.

    I want to see this "nonlethal" pistol? And, Russians can have guns? And I wish someone would discuss Kant in line with me some day... that NEVER happens. :(
