Bring back 17th century pistol duels.

The Issue

We live in a world full of never ending problems that stem from simple situations like a neighbor not returning those hedge clippers of yours or your stupid teenage son/daughter eating all of your damned food that you paid for out of the pantry. Then there's the obvious things like war and poverty etc..

But the point is we can settle things like in the days of old. Flintlock pistol duels. No more will we have to escalate things to bloody global conflicts and rely upon corrupt justice systems! Sign this petition and we can settle our differences privately at our own hands. 

This applies to you government types as well! No need to bring in bloody wars full of needless casualties when we can just send our leaders to duel it out publicly on live television! Fun for the whole family! Not to mention the profits to be made.

But finally as a rule; Since we humans can be very savage at times, You must first write a strongly worded letter to your rival before you can duel legally. If the letter does not end the feud, Then you must remove your white glove and strike your opponent across the face with it. This will most likely dishonor him and will escalate to a duel. When the duel happens, An official employee from my business, The FPDA or The Flintlock Pistol Dueling Association will mail you two dueling pistols inside of a specially made carrying case through your mail service and then the duel can begin.

 

Also remember not to shoot your rival in the back as you are taking your 10 to 20 paces as this will disqualify you from the duel and you will forever be shamed in your community. (Which may lead to public lynching.)
