In my field of work we use brittal ceramic sissors that shatter very easily if you are not careful to cut the cevlar strength membrane (same material used in armored vests) of the cable like its paper when terminating/splicing fiber-optics.
I never really thought of a bow as a slingshot, but now that you mention it, it makes sense. Sorry, my misunderstanding. I don't know much about weapons of any kind. The only time I touch a gun is to move it out of the way so I can get to the paper clips.
But, then again, you're dealing with a retard with no demonstrated ability to think reasonably, so really - what did you expect?
Thanks for the explanation, though. (not being sarcastic)

Wow! What a retard.

Hahaha...what creditability!
Sharp objects can pierce Kevlar. You can shoot a sharp object using a slingshot. This retard knows that.
I just want to see a slingshot capable of effectively firing armor piercing bullets.
So yep, that's me, the retard. Keep pointing out the obvious, rachel. And keep hurling those insults.
Then go to any outdoor sporting store and take a look at any compound or crossbow if you want to see a slingshot capable.
You probably dont know that to hunt with a crossbow (riffle stock) you need a medical reason to get a special license. At least in the state I'm in anyway.
Crossbows are very small deadly and quiet weapons. And quite accurate to say the least.

Tell us all about your scientific background, Rachel.

Hahaha!!
It doesnt matter.
You understood everything I said.
You dont entice me which I could really careless.

Rachel, for all of her spinning, can't transform a simple-, cross-, or compound bow into a slingshot, or vice versa.
Their basic construction and operating methodologies are totally different.
The BOW weapons are all called that because they get their motive impetus from the release of energy stored in a flexible bow. They CAN discharge armor-piercing projectiles because their arrows or bolts are stable in flight and hit the target point-on. Also, surprisingly, arrows and bolts pack an amazing amount of kinetic energy -- often far in excess of small caliber pistol ammunition.
Slingshots are the structural opposite of bows. They are made with a rigid frame and an elastic string. The elastic has a small pouch which holde the pellet that is fired. Although they can be extremely accurate and lethal, a slingshot pellet can not pierce armor because there is absolutely no way to stabilize it to force an end-on pointed tip impact with a target.
Kelvar body armor works by spreading out an impact. Just about any sharply-pointed projectile can pierce it. In fact, Kelvar is easily defeated by a very low-speed projectile: a sharpened ice pick. Kelval is, therefor, invulnerable to Rachel's wit.

Another perfect example of a retard trying on reason for the first time.
It doesnt matter how you slice it or dice it.
A bow and a sling shot are based off the same principle.
I hope you are not a lawyer for the sake of people going to you for legals.

Unlike you, Rachel, Nikki comes from a scientific background, but don't let that stop you or anything.
Tell us more about the high tech fiber optic projects your company has you working on.

Its the ammo thats capable of armor piercing, not the slingshot!
Guns don't kill people ammo does..
A bit out of context dont ya think.
A bullet just doesnt shoot itself. Nor does an arrow!

Thats simply a false statement.

Bit out of context don't ya think? I mean, a bullet doesn't just shoot itself..

Can't disagree with her logic. They both are based on Newton's third law. That makes them as similar to each other as a blowtorch is to a kiss -- both based on transfer of heat.
Rachel: How do you keep a slingshot pellet from spinning so its sharp point can pierce the ermor?

Its none of your business what the company has me doing.
The point was that a gun which the Browns supposedly have is capable of firing armor piercing bullets doesnt mean anything than just being "capable".
No big deal than just a public scare tactic.
A bow is capable of slinging an arrow at low velocity cutting through protective vests like paper.
No different than preping fiber optic cable for termination or splicing.
