@chilaxe solving it by giving everybody guns is not a solution at all. The knuckle draggers come from somewhere, setting in there would be better. Making harsher gun laws, or rather, making it harder to get a gun legally in all of the US would be a potential short term solution. Mutually Assured Destruction is not really a good idea, since it will just escalate it anyway. Maybe the crazies who wants to attack schools will start wearing kevlar vests, so to stop them you need to have armor piercing bullets.

I feel for you and your friends, but the reason your friends get mugged is what needs to be worked at. Are they just bored youths? Poor, desperate people? Gangs? Muggings are rarely completely random, if everyone had a gun, wouldn't they just still mug them, but some times either side would be shot?

@Jerykk if people are crazy enough, they'll suicide bomb with nukes. You'll be a martyr anyway, so it's all good. People are fucking insane, making everyone have an easy way to put metal inside other people is not a good idea.

Guns don't kill people, but they make it damn easy for people to do it.

All he needs are some impromptu piercings and an only slightly visible tattoo.

Upvote for the laugh when he sees his piercing...

I am so Granola. I'm just a regular guy...jeans and a t-shirt, regular old boring person. But I love, LOVE women with Tattoos and piercings. Absolutely love them, I can't attract one though and that's the story of my love life.

... And then it whipped it's tail up and pierced her heart!

Or, the croc got so bored he fell asleep. >> ^boblobblaw:

I highly doubt it was drowning either. I think a more plausible explanation would be that the jaguar pierced the top of the croc's skull with its teeth.
>> ^iaui:
I'm not sure that crocodile was drowning ... some crocodiles can stay under water for upwards of two hours, some even longer. Perhaps if it was caught off guard before it could breathe in and prepare for a dive it might drown? Or perhaps the jaguar footage was really over a couple of hours long and it just stood there holding the crocodile underwater that whole time and the editor just didn't want to make us watch that length of film... (:

Oh yes! I would love to see some classy, clever spy stuff like this. I bet MI6 has the whole place bugged though.>> ^Deano:
I'm thinking of the end of The Thomas Crown Affair with Pierce Brosnan. Have a load of Assange lookalikes turn up and swarm the area, make several hoax "omg I saw a terrorist" calls and in the confusion Assange walks out disguised as a black guy (I saw that in Silver Streak with Gene Wilder).


That's my thought also.
With bugs everywhere, satellites, and CCTV cameras on every corner (to keep citizens "safe"). There is little chance an old style clock and dagger escape would work.


Some of the ideas aren't bad though...the thing is if they get tons of information you can use it against them until they don't trust the information they're getting. Also if push came to shove they would lock down the airport until they got a handle on the situation. The best thing they could do is distract like they're going to the airport and go to a small airport to charter a small plane to another nation who wouldn't turn him over, or at least to Europe where he could more easily disappear. Or maybe even use a boat to get to Europe. Just simply cover of darkness changing your hair sort of stuff could work and with communication and GPS these days he could be picked up and moved really efficiently.

I really wish I was a part of the group trying to get him out though, that would be soo much fun.

Another problem might be that being disguised as a black person doesn't reduce your chances of arrest...

The paint is going in the wrong direction! The shot gun would have pierced the side of the can facing it. If enough of the bag was actually shredded enough then the target that would have got spray painted would be the robot, not the bus stop. Also I imagine a shot gun to a spray paint can would yield a fire bomb, not a paint bomb.
