Gun control is one of the great divides of the American political psyche. But did you know that apparently flamethrowers don’t enter the conversation? Despite that knot in your stomach (or butterflies depending on what kind of person you are. Incidentially, if you did feel giddy hearing this news you may need check yourself) flamethrowers are quite legal according to a great article on cracked today.

Soon, our bee overlords will farm us for 'human honey'
Something about being our only defense against the ‘inveitable’ invasion of Killer Bees from South America.
While we stared down the shaft of a nuke at the commies during the Cold War, countires such as Brazil learned to develop high tech bee fighting techniques to combat the bellicose insects.
BURN THEM IN A STORM OF FIRE!!!!
While one may scoff at the idea of needing any sort of legislation to restrict something as out of control as flamethrowers, there are apparently multitudes of step by step instructions on the interwebs explaining how to build a flamethrower out of a super soaker. (Final step = self-immolation?)
To me, this sounds like the fantasy of urban legend. Oh, how I was wrong.
Wow.
Supposedly, the key to avoiding conflaguration is finding a water gun that doesn’t leak. Good luck there.

Holder's position on recreational flamethrowers remains unclear
You might have to act quickly if you choose projectile incineration or other weapon-related activities as a hobby.
If Obama’s recently approved nomination for Attorney General – Eric H. Holder Jr. – tackles his new role as the country’s chief officer of the law with the restrictive angle the NRA believes he will.
The NRA said last year “Obama would be the most anti-gun president in American history.”
While that remains to be seen, I think its time for me to scrounge up some bhutane and a pump-action water gun.
