crossbow

A bow and arrow on steroids.

Use of steroids on bows and arrows was banned in the U.S. by 1987 Bows Rights Act but it is still common practice in many parts of the world. Many people see this treatment of bows and arrows unethical even though crossbows are rad.

Crossbow

Kind of like a sideways bow and arrow, except with a firing mechanism instead of just the person's arm/hand.

Roberta Ford was always hiding in the bushes pretending to be hunting big game with a bow and arrow as a kid. In high school she shot another girl in the back of the head with a crossbow from the bleachers at a swim meet, thinking it would make her look badass or get her a badass image on TV. She was never right in the head.
