It's dr Strangelove!! Ooh, gimme a brownie.

Seriously now, if i was born in the early 1920's, i would either be a gunner on a T.13BIII tankhunter (sig) in the "tweede lanciers" armoured division of the Belgian army, or a infantryman, armed with an m89, m36, or an fm30, in the "eerste linie" division. After the wise decision of our Dear King Leopold III, to surrender to the Germans, I will go to a POW camp in Poland. Then i will overtake the camp with some fellow Belgians and Dutchies and escape to Spain through Switzerland. When i get to England with a rubber boat, I will enlist to join the Brigade Piron, in which i shall fight the German oppressor till the bitter end, his or mine

Well, I'd yell some French taunt (graciously provided by Monty Python and the Holy Grail) and as he turns around, pop him in the face with my Liberator.

How's that for honour :P

Screw Liberators. They shoulda just cranked up mass production of Mossberg 12-gauges and air dropped those over occupied Europe. So you want to knock fear into the heart of some nazi thug because he'll never know if Monsieur Pierre is packing? Well imagine that if he was likely to have a pump-action large caliber shotgun instead of some little dinky one-shot popgun!

Just insert that gratuitous *kerr-chikk* BOOM! into any number of WWII movies. Like Tom Hanks potting away at the Panzer with his .45:

Panzer: rumble rumble rumble
Tom Hanks: *kerr-chikk* BOOM!

OK, he still would have died, but it would have been a lot cooler.

Or Vassili Zaitsev: "With your permission, comrade commissar" *kerr-chikk* BOOM! *kerr-chikk* BOOM! *kerr-chikk* BOOM! *kerr-chikk* BOOM! *kerr-chikk* BOOM! as another one bites the dust.

Or poor little Anne Frank, huddled in her attic, waiting for the goons to arrive. No more of this passive fatalism. Instead,

Nazi thug: "OPEN UP! IN ZE NAME OF ZE FUHRER!" *bangs down door*
Anne Frank: *kerr-chikk* BOOM! "Hah, take that you miserable hun!"

Or Col. Stauffenberg, in the Wolfsschanze. Screw bombs, just imagine a meeting room, from the outside.

Hitler: "But, vhat are you doink, Stauffenberg? Put zat awa.."
*kerr-chikk* BOOM! *kerr-chikk* BOOM! ...etc...as the windows light up from the inside with a series of loud, resounding large-caliber explosions.

Or do you think the Allies would have suffered such losses at D-Day if they'd all been armed with 12-gauges? Probably not, and the sound effects would have been far more gratifying.

And the German war machine wouldn't have gotten more than 300 meters inside of Belgium or Poland if it had been confronted with entire populations of shotgun-wielding farmers. No part of the world would have lived under tyranny and fear, thanks to the knowledge that at any moment, air-dropped pallets full of 12-gauge goodness would drop from the skies in the name of freedom.



Remember kids, an armed society is a polite society.
