Have We Merged With Bizarro-World Again???

My lords, ladies and gentlemen, I present in evidence:
Exhibit A.

Laugh all you want. But you'd be f**king scared s**tless if an army of segway riding soldiers started coming towards you.

 

It was more of the "lolwhut?" reaction i had to the picture.

Joe

 

I think the ickle automatics are cuter than the segways ^_^. Still looks pretty darn cool though, should be enough to deter any trained terrorist.

 

I lol'd. pity the poor schmucks who run into them buggers!

Joe

 

Oh Yeah - and the cute little crouching stance has me scared and ready to surrender. Swat team with 0 dignity left!

I've seen the last photo before, but only just realised that one officer is holding some rifle with a scope on it. Sharpshooting on a segway? Possibly.

 

These guys really need to catch a Hell's Angels conclave in the US! My old buds could convince them of what 2 wheels are about!
John

 

Now imagine one toting a bazooka or a minigun

 

Chain gun! The one for the US military is called ASP. Sweet piece.

Our local bomb squad has a segeway for the EOD tech because he can only walk about 100 yards in that suit before he falls over.


Now, here's what I want to know...

I can't imagine that gear weighs more that structural firefighters turnout clothing and an SCBA (airpack), and yet not only do firefighters wear it for hours at a time, but there is an annual competition where firefighters in full turnout gear and SCBAs run up Columbia tower (69 Floors, 1311 steps, 788 verticle feet, full bunker gear on air)! If the firefighters can do that, why can't the cop get off his dead ass and walk?

 

It's an image thing! These guys are the POSERS of the new millennium!

 

Too many donuts

 

I don't think it is about fitness, but precision. I mean a segway is going to allow you to be moving and yet still take extremely accurate and steady shots. when you are running it is nearly impossible to make a kill-shot because of the bounce and breathing etc. The segway eliminates those conditions. I am surprised they just don't have bigger guns.

EDIT: look at the 3rd guy from the right in the back. Looks like he might have a semi-auto sniper or an assult rifle.

 

Now we just need to wait for the segway counter strike mod

 

Wait - How do they steer when they have both hands on their weapons?

 

Okay, so, time to invest in a Chinese uniform, a segway, and learn Chinese. That way you can Segway with them, rather than being very slowly run over or shot.

Don't forget to swear allegiance to the Emperor.

Chinese magic. The same kind that gave them this rather terrifying idea.

 

Imagine the Segway chases! Ripping it up through Bejing at 7mph.

 

ahhhh foiled by a terrorist on a newer segwey they should mount flashing lights and sirens on those things, any terrorrists would laugh themselves to death
