Indeed - one's intent, be it tongue-in-cheek or a serious attack, should effect how it is perceived by responsible parties."I surrender":lol:
I remember seeing a poster in Vancouver Wa. at a gun shop back in the early 90's with this same message. It had a group of French soldiers from WWII with their hands above their heads holding onto rifles as they were surrendering to the Germans. The poster was a fake advertisement for used military french rifles that said, "Once dropped, never fired". Very funny!
All of that said, it doesn't hurt to have both kid gloves and a hammer in your kit bag :lol:
