They show a group of guys pushing a Hyundai away and the Al-J announcer calls it "a rather high end car". Hell, those Nissan kill-dozer trucks are more high end than that, at least in the States! Did you guys see that Nissan kill-dozer with the giant FLAK cannon in the back? They fired it and it looked like that truck was kicked back 50 yards from the burst! Balls of steel to be manning that thing and the guy behind the wheel standing on the e-brake.

kindermord posted:Yeah I'd like to know if that AK was solid or just plated. Regardless, not sure if I'd feel safe strolling around with it in a well armed crowd. Gold is a soft metal and couldn't be swapped for steel or the gun would just explode when fired. Plus it'd take special machining tools to make the weapon out of gold, and that just wouldn't make sense even for a luxury item because it'd be useless. So in all likelihood it's gold plated.

They *really* want that fist/plane statue down, but all they can come up with is to spray paint it and hang off it trying to break it.
