    Seriously though, what the fuck is the civilian excuse for guns on the Falklands? The only native natural predator that could hurt the sheep is long extinct. I guess they’re afraid the sheep will have a revolution.

      Might be due to the conflicts with Argentina? Honestly not sure.

        If the Argentine army lands, drafting the sheep and giving them guns isn’t going to stop an occupation any more than it did before.
