Automatic weapons
Automatic!
I bet you they’ve got those nuclear weapons set on automatic,
just in the event that if the white house gets blown up, or something like that, they’ll have a means of striking back.
O come on! you don’t think so!
Look! if anyone’s stupid enough to make so many of the bloody things in the first place, they’re ganna be stupid enough to make them automatic.
It’s really the same kind of stupidity!
