I've always thought that was from the old military expression, 2 in the chest, 1 in the head.
I guess it depends on how you want to treat them, it's nice to have options though
It really wouldn't surprise me if the shocker originated from that phrase as well. 20 years ago it was almost an unofficial salute.
That's called the Mozambique Drill. The more you know!
Yup! They've kinda pulled back on it because of the heartless nature of saying it. "Double tap" also to a lesser extent. I can't remember what the new verbage is because I've been out a long time now and it was just starting to change as I was getting out.
As seen here. :)
Collateral is one of my favorite movies of all time!
Edit: there's a puscifer song that references the Mozambique drill. "Conditions of my parole" it's a great song on its own, but it's a good story within a song.
