* [[Parody Sue]]: Harrison, who "tore the straps of his handicap harness like wet tissue paper, tore straps guaranteed to support five thousand pounds."
* [[Political Correctness Gone Mad]]: The driving force of the work.
* [[Screw the Rules, I Make Them]]: The Handicapper General isn't subject to handicaps like the rest of the population, {{spoiler|as she shoots Harrison with perfect aim}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Shoot the Shaggy Dog]]}} {{spoiler|It turns out, Harrison [[Why Don't Ya Just Shoot Him|isn't bulletproof]]. And the government inadvertently wipes his death from his parent's memories.}}
** {{spoiler|And everybody else's memories. However inadvertent, it's still a favorable outcome which the government would no doubt support.}}
