It might be fun but I also wouldn't want this in the hands of stupid people.
Americans can't even tell people what gender their kid will be without setting a forrest on fire, now they want flamethrower dogs?
I couldn't give a shit nor be bothered to worry any some imaginary scenario that's going to happen less often than a lightning strike.
People dumb enough to buy flamethrower dogs setting a whole state on fire is an imaginary scenario?
Roofing flame throwers have been a thing for 40 years. We not suddenly going to see a bunch of new accesses to these tools. They said the same exact shit about the not a flamethrower and here we are not burning alive from fires started by them.
