'Praetorian Systems' check
Hello all,
Does anyone have any comments as to the description contained in the link below? To summarize, it claims that the designer of the self-defence product is an active-duty Special Forces soldier. I have not found any other information regarding this company or it's products. When someone's background and experience is specifically being used to sell a product, I would like to confirm that the information is truthful. Of course there is no need to identify the person in question, but I'm wondering if anyone can verify that the principal of this firm is from your community.

Thank you,
TRUST

Probably a "cook" with the Air Force "Special Operations".

3. Using a sharp rock or stick clean said animal.
4. Cook animal.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 as nessicary, or until help arrives.
Does anyone else find it funny that the Air Force's version of the MPs run around with giant SF armbands [it stands for 'Security Forces']? I guess Military Rent-A-Cops need morale boosters too.

Whoever invented this and buys it obviously start their day by eating an extra bowl of stupid. IMO there should be a national list of the names of those who think this s**t up and of those who are stupid enough to buy it so we can deny them voting privileges, tax them for wasting our valuable oxygen, and draft them for bayonet practice during a national mobilization.

I always thought the way to get rich was come up with something totally useless and sell it for $19.99 on TV. I just haven't had the right idea yet. I need something like pet rocks or those things you squeeze and the eyes and ass pop out at convenience stores.
