Yea with a fucking flamethrower.... I wouldnt go nowhere near a single hornet , let alone a whole nest. Plus they are big and can fly faster than you can run so if it wants you , basically your its bitch for awhile...

Meh, those were just some sissy pansy European bees. Lets see some African Killer Bees versus some hornets.
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)
"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)

Wouldn't matter. Honeybees, africanized or not, die when they sting (unless its something really really soft). The hornets can sting as many times as they want. But actually in this sort of battle, they don't even sting the other bees, the hornets are huge in comparison and with their large mandibles they simply bite the honeybees in half, which they can literally do all day long. I have actually dealt with some africanized bees, and while they were certainly aggressive (they were literally bouncing themselves off of my veil), I don't think that would let them win a battle against hornets, because pretty much everytime they get close to one to try and sting it, it just grabs him and bites his head off

My co-workers at my work run a honey bee buisness. We literally have thousands upon thousands of bee's in the back of the work. Id hate to see one set of hornets (which we also have a lot of around the building) take them all out. Then bee's can be expensive to buy.
I remember maybe when I was about 12 or so my father and I attacked a thing of hornets with multiple bottle of poison. Boy, talk about scary stuff. I can still remember my father spraying one clump of them, then they all (like about 100) come flying at him and him just doing commando rolls all the way into the pool. Ahh, hornets dont get along too well with water by the way. Lets just say we both learned our lesson that day. SCREW POISON USE A HIGH POWER HOSED then step on them all. Good times.

Blazer, about African bees versus hornets:
In this video, the bees really didn't seem to be fighting back against the hornets all that much, whereas African bees would probably launch themselves at the hornets, if what I know about them is correct. Even though hornets can bite the bees, a mass of bee stings would probably kill them [the hornets].
