FAIL.

Guy posted an intelligent, reasonable article expounding about a particular interpretation of the language of the constitution. You responded with a one sentence politically-charged cliche which has little to no relevance to said article and only serves to tie said article to Stalinist Russia rhetorically.

Do better next time.

Rambling on internet forums like THR and Gothic.net don't count as a "life", just as your hand doesn't count as a "girlfriend".

No, not even if you put lipstick on "her".

Have you finished running around your backyard with a camcorder yet?

JCC 04-10-2010 03:47 PM

No ammo... NO TIME...

Despanan 04-10-2010 03:52 PM

Hey, you think it was Deadman's crazy ex behind that door?

JCC 04-10-2010 03:57 PM

Perhaps, but it's not like he has time to take these things into consideration, Desp. When you're running from those things, an abandoned building looks safe.

It was an attempt, show me where you could have done any better,given the time constraints and the rest of the "Crew" (And I do use that term loosely,because it was more akin to an Asylum run amok).

But that is way off topic.

Back to the topic...

Pro-gun/Anti-gun?

What do you need a crew and time for? I could replicate that teaser with a $50 camera, a pair of running shoes, Windows Movie Maker, and a minute and a half (I'm giving myself 45 seconds to set up the shot, just because I feel lazy).

Nothing in that article I said even speaks to that sentiment. In fact, the article has a sentiment to the opposite: The rights given to us in the bill of rights are all equal, which is why we can use one amendment to interpret another. Combine that with the fact that I never said I agree with the article, instead remarking that I merely liked it, and you have officially served us the world's greatest red herring.

I rarely say this out of respect for people who have seniority over me, but I have 100 posts and I even I recognize that you attempted a genuine argument, failed at it, pretended to be a troll, failed at that too, and now you have no place here except as a punching bag for when we get bored.

You've failed.

YOU DIDN'T EVEN TAKE THE FUCKING DATE AND TIME DISPLAY OFF THE CAMCORDER. a

Done in one evening in Lexington Kentucky.

Honestly though, why aren't you finishing your film? You can't have much to do, as your profile listed you as "retired".

No joking, no jabs here. You should seriously finish it. You waste too much time on infowars and arguing with us. With a decent script and a little make-up you could go the "cloverfield" route.

At least then you'd have something you finished. You and your buddies could get together, and have some beer and watch it.

Film making isn't the topic of this thread.

Pro gun/Anti-Gun?

KontanKarite 04-10-2010 05:09 PM

Brent, you need to stop pwning the dweebs.

Despanan 04-10-2010 05:17 PM

You know, I object to the whole pro-gun/anti-gun concept of this thread.

I mean if we're talking about gun control that's one thing, but being pro gun control does not make one automatically anti-gun. A gun is a tool. I'm not "pro-hammer" or "anti-hammer" why should guns be any different?

Now I know you've got a hard on for them (In this case quite literally, as you listed guns as one of your fetishes) but why would you want to butt heads with a bunch of people about a hot-button topic which none of you will have any effect on anyway? You're just going to re-hash the same argument over and over until everyone becomes bored of it.

Honestly Deadman, I'd like to see you finish the movie. Why? because I think it could be good. Not "good" good, mind you, but hell it can't be any worse than Zombie Planet and that was made by a guy in Kentucky with little to no resources or planning.

You seem to be a decent enough writer when you want to be, why not channel that energy in a constructive direction as opposed to antagonizing a bunch of Goths on the internet and slavishly following some nutjob radio host?

That's something I've been thinking about recently.

I consider myself "pro-gun" and "pro-gun control" at the same time. I've been target shooting, I like the idea of hunting, and I don't think that you're evil for using a gun to defend yourself when your life is on the line. However, I also think that all guns should be registered, there should be strict controls over ammunition, and only certain firearms should be available to civilians.

I don't think the two are logically inconsistent.

So you hate freedom? Are you a communist too?

I would have given Lenin a blowjob.

And who needs "freedom"?

I want to learn how to fire one but I'll never actually own one.

Deadmanwalking_05 04-16-2010 09:38 PM

Well even if you just go to a shooting range later on or with a parent,make sure that you learn proper firearms safety before you ever pick up a weapon,that much goes for everybody.

Here are 4 rules to know when handling firearms.

#1: Muzzle control (The end that a projectile will be coming out of at a very speedy pace) don't let the muzzle come to a rest on anything or anyone you don't want to destroy.

#2: Keep your trigger finger out of the trigger guard until you are ready to shoot,or as my dear old pappy would say "Keep yon Booger Hook Off yonder Bang switch until you are aiming and ready to fire".

#3: Always use a safe back stop when shooting any firearm.

#4 :Last but not least make a positive I.D. on your target,in other words make sure your target is what you think it is (Example: Is that a deer thrashing around in the leaves and underbrush or is it another hunter trying to get to his/her tree stand?).

Entropic 04-16-2010 09:48 PM

You forgot one: Assume every firearm is loaded until proven otherwise.

That goes along with the muzzle control and the trigger finger out of the trigger guard until aiming at a clearly Identified Target and being ready to fire.

I'm failing to see how you can imply checking whether a gun is loaded from where it's pointing and whether or not your finger is on the trigger.

the-nihilist 04-17-2010 10:15 PM

Aren't you kind of assuming it's loaded when you make sure you're not pointing it at anyone and not having your finger on the trigger? I'm no expert, but it sounds like one of those "just in case" precautions.
