People without a gun might have resorted to sulking, shouting, or maybe punching somebody in the head at worst. The sheer availability of guns makes them more likely to get used. Look at how many people in the US are getting killed by handguns each year (and how often by their own gun), and compare that to countries with strict gun laws such as Germany (my home country). And, of course, culture plays a huge role - in Canada (my wife's home country) many people have guns, but don't use at them each other.
Applause.
I'm currently working for a company that doesn't invest 2 cents into their developers (who really need to take a hint or two) but spends millions on procedures, methods, and locked down software design tools that will not raise the standard of the ones who insist on staying behind but hinder the ones who are able to do it better.
While I am impressed with the flight I found the video a bit scary...
When the 1st stage separated it looked like it (at least!) almost hit the nozzle of the 2nd stage on the right side.
Further, the 1st stage didn't just fall straight back but did so at quite an angle (implying the trajectory of the 2nd stage changed quite a bit after separation).
Then, the nozzle of the second stage glowed bright red in more and more placed as the flight progressed. Is that normal (to the degree observable)?
Towards the end of the flight the whole vehicle started to swing back and forth quite a bit, with growing amplitude.

I guess it would be suboptimal to discover that Lutetia has a moon when it already fills the windscreen of the probe...
Be sure to factor in the thrust generated by the extremely powerful cooling fan - you wouldn't want your box taking off...
The problem is that they still could claim the stuff has "been put there later". Really, there is no stopping these people.

Is that a sequel to "Command & Conquer"?
