Just a quick fact check: Canada did attempt to create a national gun registry some years ago, but it was junked by Conservatives we shamefully voted into power. Wee Justin Trudeau (The Lesser) hasn't lifted a nicely manicured finger to strengthen our gun laws. 🤷

We had to destroy the school to save it!

I'm pretty sure school walls are built filled with concrete and reinforced with steel. Totally unlike the "test walls" in the video.But cool toy though.

We're gonna need more vaches. Also some brussel sprouts.

These cannons could make really cool mortars. And math class sdudy of parabolas etc.Results similar to the cow catapult. Would play hell on roofs and 5 gallons of water exploding in the living room would be spectacular.Actually the video demo was rather unimaginative.

If the school walls are as shabby as what they're shooting at, wouldn't the ceiling cave in if they blew a 6 foot hole in a load bearing wall?

Look at me, trying to use logic on this mess.

They are. And probably.

They would just say it's another reason that proves why schools need to be a "bidness."

Or they could install more doors. Oh, wait...

I have come to believe that Gun rights advocates are a cult that worship guns as blameless holy things that must never be destroyed or regulated in anyway.

Including the bathrooms? Asking for a friend.

Check out the destruction of Ripple Rock. The largest intentional non-nuclear explosion in history.

No, you're right. I guess I forgot to use the dripping sarcasm font. I was trying to underscore how dumb the person was. Must have missed.

Late to Wonkette today. When I saw the headline, I thought of fire dept water cannons:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/...

Which can be used in riots, and fire hoses have been frequently used against protesters. I was trying to visualize how they’d be used in school shootings, again with the amount of time needed to set up. I was not expecting a cannon that shoots water bottles at all; an even sillier if equally useless idea.
