Its an explosive and a pitiful attempt at humor by Rev. Stoopid. Blowing the
plant up would only spread pieces far and wide and create more problems
later on when they form even more colonies of the plant.

What is a leftover M-80? Haven't been a kid in a long time. Cows and
goats
like the stuff and would clean it out a a week but they would also clean
out
everything else.

You are alluding to the wrong species. Only the pads of Opuntia
ficus-indica are occasionally eaten. Most of the other species have
pads
that are too spiny, too fibrous or unpleasant tasting.

Perhaps some neighborhood kids with leftover M-80s would like to try and
remove it? Sounds like a great science project for the fall...
