[MR] Missile Weapon "Red Scare"

[MR W]

Yes, I am aware of the color blind issue, but there is not going to be anything green flying through the air unless you hit someone very hard in the back of the head. With roughly 10% of the male fighters being color blind, and maybe 1 % of the females, all they have to do is take a hit from a 4 foot long grey javilin like thing hitting them from out of the sky, they will have to take it or relie on there buddy telling them what it was.

As to the second part, if any Communist or Native American Siege Engine Amo takes offence to the saying, I will talk to them.

Just a friendly reminder that the single most common form of color blindness
is red-green.
To those who have it, red things look just like gray things, as do green
ones.

So, by that rule, colour-blind people become invulnerable to missile fire.
I can see those color-sensors fading right now...  :)

As an aside, given that the Cold War and the Indian Wars are over
(except for the Seminoles, I think that's just an informal,
long-lasting ceasefire), we really don't need to add
to the "red-bashing" that has gone before us.

Next thing you know, combat archers would be called "Reds".
Those who like combat archers would be called "Pinkos"; and we
would have J. Edgar Hoover's ghost dragged out of <expletive deleted>
to investigate known Monarchist Sympathizers
    - a crime for which we are all most assuredly guilty.
