An Amazon Echo maybe? :-k
I mostly wanted to post this story for Lost to show him that they don't fuck around there and they will indeed shoot to kill if you don't heed their warnings.

Oh I know. But still... what the hell was that cylindrical object? A toilet paper roll?
The most fabulous object in the world?
From another story that was written right after the incident:
Quote:
I’m sure you’re wondering the the same thing I am: what exactly was the “cylindrical object” the man was holding when he got out of his car? What would someone want to smuggle into the secretive research facility? The vague way the object has been described in both the press statement and news reports is rather curious. Was this an attempt at sabotage? A foreign intelligence operation gone wrong? Or did the man take a wrong turn fleeing Area 51 with some type of exotic alien material?
While it’s much more probable the object was an empty can of Icehouse or a flashlight, the lack of details released to the public so far leaves the imagination free to wander. Even if this happens to be a case of bad decision making due to mental illness or intoxication, it highlights the deadly seriousness of the many “No Trespassing” signs surrounding Area 51 and other secretive research sites in America’s deserts. No grainy cellphone photo of alleged alien technology or an experimental black triangular drone is worth risking your life.
But seriously: what was the mysterious “cylindrical object” the man was carrying? Why was he trying to get into such a heavily guarded facility? Does this have anything to do with the other Area 51-related revelation this week about secret ‘motherships’ possibly being tested at the site?

Area 51 raid a hoax :hand:
In my mind...I see a long line of people with signs standing at a gate. Then I hear the BRRRRRRRRT from an A-10 and the people become this huge pile of mush...with signs.
:lol: Man that Gatling gun on the A-10's is a seven barrel, 30mm monster that fires the bullets at almost THREE TIMES THE SPEED OF SOUND :shock:
That means the dude beside you turns to mush and then you hear that horrible noise *
* known as the Fart of Freedom :thumbsup:
I've played three Call of Duty games that feature the plane and in one scenario you get to fire three types of ammo. It made that fart noise with the gatling gun so I looked up real videos on Youtube and was surprised to hear how accurate the dumb game was :lol:
Survivors of attacks from the A-10 say it's the most terrifying noise in the world :lol:
In the description the poster says the bullets move at approximately one kilometer per second...damn.

And from what I've read, they are really hard to shoot down without a direct hit. They can take all kinds of rifle/machine gun fire and stay in the air.
The A-10 is a beast. There might have been a 30mm Vulcan mounted on an APC I used to man in South Dakota.
