    The difference isn’t really that complicated; a flamethrower sprays flaming liquid, a blowtorch sprays flaming gas

      Yeah but I can set up my oxy acetylene rig to throw huge beams of fire. To a layman, it’ll look like a flame thrower.

          Hardly matters when laws are largely enforced due to reports from the republic.

          What laymen understand to be true is effectively true when it comes to reporting and the subsequent investigation.

          I don’t want to be hassled by the cops because I’m cutting stuff in my garage and a nosy neighbor happens to look in when I’m lighting a torch.
