78. Can you conceal a Dodge Charger and walk into a movie theater with it?

Mon Dec 24, 2012, 03:41 AM

Dec 2012

Can you stand hundreds, even thousands, of feet away from someone with your Dodge Charger and kill them from that distance?

Can a Dodge Charger be simply pivoted through as much as a 360 degree arc and kill everything in the sweep of that arc without moving any more than that?

How many Dodge Chargers can someone with an average income afford? Store? Maintain? How many can someone one use at the same time?

How well do Dodge Chargers get around without a road?

How many sources for the purchasing of Dodge Charger fuel are there? compared to ammunition?

How likely is it that a 2 year old can kill him/herself and/or others with a Dodge Charger?
