You see, the best way to Stop the Boats is a massive swarm of autonomous armed dogs. Strafing a few boats will stop the rest and save many lives in the long term.

You can't make an Omelet without breaking a few eggs. Vote Greens.
 I had a whole book about horrible jobs. My personal favourite was the guy who worked in a pea processing factory. His job was to watch a conveyor belt of peas and get rid of the black ones. He said something to the effect of 'eventually you developed a hole in your vision and when you left for the day everything looked red'.

The worst job I personally had was at a major Australian electronics retailer. The job itself wasn't that bad or anything, but there was something particularly soul-destroying about processing peoples orders for Christmas on a two year payment plan and I felt like the shop was taking advantage of people.

We had an angry military customer run over a printer with some kind of armored vehicle and send us the photos, since they were in Iraq and we couldn't send them replacement parts. (That was awesome.)

I really want to know the sequence of events that lead to this. Do you mean it was in a box and being taken off a plane when somebody rolled over it? Or it was just lying there on the ground for some reason and the armoured vehicle crushed it?
