However, firing ordinance at someone isn't nearly as threatening as firing ordnance at someone.
Ordinance is a local law, or bill, or other form of legislation.
Ordnance is high caliber explosives.
No 'I' in ordnance.
Don't drown the enemy in legislation, drown them in explosives.

Add in Frankie Goes to Hollywood's Relax and I think you have just encapsulated the 80's. Appetite for Destruction was more of the signal of the end of the 80's sound.
