When your relatives worry you, part Xth.
February 21, 2020 at 7:33 am
One of my cousins showed me plans for anti-drone system he designed. It's basically a box with a honeycomb grid that holds TWENTY-FIVE small rockets.
With explosive heads, contact fuzed.
Unguided.
No fail-safes.
You'd think there is a very small market for this. Cuz thinks so too. Right now, anyway. He's planning to develop a demand by buzzing stills and meth labs then crying "WOLF!" (I grant you the BATF might try this some day.)

What with being unguided and having no failsafes, I predict your cousin will soon be sporting a a nickname along the line of ‘Lefty’ or ‘Squint’.

He told me he was going to fire it remotely. He would use a pool cue to trip the trigger. I asked him if I could have his Pokemons when he died.

He bought the rockets from some guy in Russia. They came in the regular mail, no warning labels of any kind on them. (That's his story anyway.)

One of the ex's brothers was a machinist and was going to make a paint ball gun that could be concealed under the hood of vehicle and fired while driving. This way he could get out his road rage in a "safe" way and not have to have a confrontation. A kind of James Bond thing.
We broke up before I found out if he completed his invention.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Firing anything at another vehicle will usually get your a felony charge.
Try to tell him that.
