That kid has to be the most popular in his neighborhood. Other kids get plastic Tonka Trucks, he gets a fricking tank

Once again, the American Dream is alive and well.
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

How come I didn't get to drive a tank when I was a kid?

I'm sure that kid is terrorizing the neighbors with that thing now.

I bet Saddam is interested in acquiring a few of those. They'd do just as well against the M1A2 as his other tanks did.

But it would provide immense entertainment value to our Army and Marine Tankercrewmen.

Would your kids have to share one, or would you build two so they can have battles in the yard?

So, is a neighbor going to construct a 1:5 model of a Panther or Tiger tank now? Will we see duels with five Shermans engaging a Tiger, potatos flying everywhere?
