Napalm Sticks To Kids
By Wyatt Earp | September 20, 2011
Napalm. You know it, you love it. Well, unless you’re on the receiving end of it, I suppose.
That’s where Nicholas Smith comes in. Smith, a typical get-off-my-lawn guy, lost it when some despicable utes egged his English residence. It was probably the last time someone messes with him.
When police officers found an agitated Nicholas Smith mixing substances and asked what he was doing he replied: “What does it ——- look like? I am making a bomb.”
The 53-year-old was grating soap into a saucepan at his home after trawling the internet for bomb-making tips, a court heard. The two officers were responding to a complaint about eggs being thrown at his house in May when they found Smith “stressed and anxious” as he made the concoction.
Smith was arrested and during an interview, he said: “I just wanted to kill them, I had enough.” (H/T – RT)
And, of course, Smith is branded as the bad guy here. The scumbags who were constantly harassing him? Fine, church-going children who love their mother. /sarc

His time would have been better spent looking up the
explosive threshold of gases in air by volume, figuring out the volume of the yobs house, getting just the right amount of propane to yeild the maximum explosive mixture for that volume (Handbook of Chemistry and Physics would suffice for data) and filling their house with the proper amount then..boom. Fuel air explosions I love.

Well you know Wyatt, he’s an Englishman and they do things “the right way” and all.
Hell, he shoulda just acquired some claymores (the exploding kind, not the swords no one can really lift much less swing over their heads) and laid ‘em out carefully.
Easy to do too – actually says on the claymore “This Side Toward Enemy”. And as long as there’s no real danger of static electricity or T-storms and lightning, he’d be ready to ROCK ‘EM!!
This is, of course, a joke all y’all. I’d hardly ever advocate the use of lethal force against someone else.

He should have said he was going to eat the kids afterwards. Then he gets to go to the hospital instead of jail.

Jon – Remind me to never piss you off.
Real – Um, yeah, me neither. Perish the thought!
Lou – Fava beans are is season right now.

Given how Britan’s been going of late, the bobbies would have arrested him even if he wasn’t making a bomb. Because how DARE someone have the temerity to place a home in the utes’ natural range, then complain when the utes become agitated?

That’s why:
1. I am fast enough to catch the fuckers who ring my doorbell at 1:30 in the morning.
2. I have a potato gun in my shed. I DARE you to mess with my house or my family. Take a hit from a raw potato at 30 feet.

I had a guy jump off the roof of his house to catch us doorbell ditching his house for the second time one night. Scared the crap out of us kids. Turns out he had reason to be paranoid, he was arrested a couple months later for setting a bunch of fires and the fire department had him under surveillance.
While definitely aggravating, deadly force against kids throwing eggs seems a bit extreme.

Suddenly I’m having Robert Duvall flashbacks, to wit: “I love the smell of napalm in the morning, it’s the smell of victory…”
Although it would be the smell of fail in this case. Especially since the defendant didn’t exercise his right to remain silent.

When a country effectively bans self-defence, and the bobbies don’t do anything, and the parents of these little rotters look the other way… I predict there will be a lot of middle age/middle class people snapping in the UK.
I’m pretty sure that the soap flakes – napalm recipe is an urban legend but I’m reluctant to websearch “Bomb making recipes”.

During the seige of Vicksburg Southern women used to go door to door (or bunker to bunker) collecting urine
from everyone in buckets to take to the munitions making
area where it would be sun dried and the nitrates leeched out for making explosives.

Dude, if I was the cop, there is no way I would have arrested him.
Not because I think napalming turds is OK. But because I don’t want to end up on this guys shit list.
I’d be like, “Dude, quit hassleing me about arresting this guy. Have you SEEN his crazy eyes? Why don’t YOU arrest him? I just finished installing a new porch at my place. I’d like it to stay unfirebombed, OK? I haven’t even finished paying off the contractor who installed it. You think I could enjoy that thing for at least one summer before it gets firebombed? Thanks.”
