Can I just get a robot dog armed with a super soaker? That would be hilarious.

The whole article listing the various uses of flamethrowers, like environmental conservation, then mentioning concerns that flamethrowers can double as weapons is just... I don't even know what to do with that.

it even lists napalm as an intended use. gonna conserve the hell out of that commie rainforest, I guess?

Completely useless for firefighting. Putting a drip torch on its ass and letting it walk a line, maybe. But it's not going to cut down the trees to make a firebreak, who what's the point.
