    Not to worry, Ollie. Your captors are obviously low grade morons since they have yet to hit upon the idea of riddling the trailer with automatic gunfire.

    Dixon, Why don’t you go back to the Hardy Boys? It has been explicitly established that the bad guys are trying not to kill him.

    Warbucks’ head is a phrenologist’s nightmare right now.

    Telemakhos You clearly are not one of the world’s deep thinkers. Perhaps you should join the bad guys trying to get “Daddy”. Clearly they are ready to kill Ollie, as the break in the other day and the fact that they are armed to the teeth. Are you such a cretin they you think they want to allow Warbucks to just mow them down. Is your mom also your aunt?

    Geez, fwdixon. Maybe some investigation is in order before you start insulting people. Read the second-to-last panel in Sunday’s cartoon:

    So, they’re not trying to kill Warbucks - they need him alive. At least for now. Maybe after he blows up a few more of them, they’ll decide it’s time open up on him.

    One million guns. Zero tear gas grenades. Sloppy.

    Jot That panel is not a declarative, rather it poses a question. besides which, Warbucks is laying waste to the “bad” guys, isn’t about time they shot back?

    You’re right, fwdixon, it does pose a question. And the answer so far appears to be ‘yes,’ they seem to want to take him alive. They haven’t fired a shot yet, despite the fact that they outnumber him, they’re armed to the teeth, and Warbucks has been killing them left and right.

    We have a stalemate, unless the bad guys had enough foresight to invest in some non-lethal ordnance.

    The bad guys want to use non-lethal laws?

    “Ordinance” refers to laws, regulations and the like.

    “Ordnance” refers to weaponry, ammo, and the like.

    They said when they were beating him they don’t want him dead. Shooting to wound is a far cry from shooting to kill.

    When will Carmen Sandiego show up to fly him out? And if he’s running out of ammo why doesn’t he pick up the weapons of the guys he just killed?
