After Action Reporting:

- Samoan attorney quickly agreed that quantity 2 of "I will be nice to FrontSight and do ______" I.O.U.'s were fair and just and right as retribution.

Definitely BS.
My Samoan attorney only yields to one thing and I think that your BF would be significantly concerned if you employed that technique to break the Samoan.
Watch out for the bats and never pick up hitch hikers in the desert, BTW.

(helloooo, of course that was just joking! :fswhip: )
OK, what the heck does the Samoan reference mean and why would they not succumb to interrogation techniques? Is this a generalization or an inside joke based on a data point.
Tell me tell me!
You XYs can be difficult to decode!

Another care package for FS to fear?
Don't forget the Hell's Angels story as well, or the savage saga of Lono.
