zimmerman was the fat people who shot a skinny people stark. jesus keep your ad hominem bullshit straight. did you really graduate?

[uraniun235]

you should read up on the crime rate in the neigborhood where this craptabulous shooting happened before jumping to conclusions. how many property thefts and other crimes should a neighborhood tolerate? this one had a bunch.

seeing as the only thing martin did to provoke zimmerman's interest was walking through the neighborhood at night... i'm thinking it's zimmerman that jumped to conclusions.

[magic princess]

oh starkypoo i love the way you avoid argument and go straight to the insult

Aussie public school debate class is the best!

BTW I did not know princess was duchess, silly me. and princess, if you really think Z man was fantasizing about being able to legally shoot someone dead then you need to show proof or it's just an opinion with no weight.

I'll see if Shep still has the link to the thread on AR-15 that he was in that illustrated the point. A lot of chest beating guys talking about "It's my RIGHT to use LETHAL FORCE if someone asks for my wallet with a knife! And my TACTICAL instructor said I need to DRAW AND SHOOT INSTANTLY WITH NO HESITATION TO WIN". Like 20 goddamned pages of this as Shep tries to explain how easily this attitude can get you justly arrested as a murderer. I don't know if Zimmerman was one of those kind of guys, but I do think those guys need to be taught a lesson.

Uh yeah genius that's why I'm mocking the idea you'd show this same brain dead support for the dead guy if he'd ACTUALLY been a criminal and had a gun and simply shot the fat guy by standing his ground against attackers

Because we all know you wouldnt because you're a giant hypocrite

[starku]

Hey ducgess it's funny right cause in non-insane countries carrying a weapon is recognized as an expression or admission of fear
And fear makes people angry and reckless

Carrying a gun doesn't make you a big tough man saving the world one dead black guy at a time
It makes you a giant pussy with a gun in it's hand

American culture glorifies violence to such a level that I don't think comparisons are possible (p.s. the last time I actually carried a pistol was in November when driving over a snowy mountain pass in case I got stranded).

[Zod]

i think the last time i actually used a gun i was 12 and taking a gun safety class

[starku]

Yeah I appreciate it's a huge cultural gulf

But it's still funny in a sad way, because American culture seems to be driven by fear
Of course heaps of other cultures are too

STOP THE BOATS LOL

[uraniun235]

it's not just a glorification of violence, it's literally a devaluation of life in general

[Flagg]

We can't have niggers wearing hoodies in the rain walking around at dusk with candy and iced tea goddamnit. This is America, not some socialist paradise like Canada.

[Zablorg]

FBI are trained to empty their weapons, he showed more restraint. totally out of control not!

just stopping by to say chocula's standard for being "in control" is maybe a little low

[F.J. Prefect, Esq]

Flagg I realise you're mocking an obvious racist, but even so, it would be preferable if you neglected the use of racial slurs in the process.

[Flagg]

Sorry, I deemed it necessary for effect.

[Count Chocula]

why is flagg mocking stark

And the sidearm would be used for?

[Zablorg]

why is flagg mocking stark

what the fuck are you even talking about

[Aaron]

Who knows man, he's a nutter.

[Losonti Tokash]

lol at zimmerman getting his head smashed into the ground

remember how he immediately had to go to the hospital for a brain injury and wasn't up and walking around with no visible injuries

oh, oh shit

ps i love how martin walking home from the store becomes "some guy who doesn't live there looking in people's houses"

[Aaron]

Its interesting to watch the thought process, black+hoody+grill+pot at school=thug and attempted murderer.

Articles about how to avoid blacks, but racism doesn't exist?

[Veef]

george lucas ended racism with red tails

[Flagg]

why is flagg mocking stark

[magic princess]

Yo Aaron,

I figured it would be useful for firing shots to be located, dealing with some dangerous animals, personal protection against someone stopping to "help" if you're broken down or stuck who actually has bad intentions, and the cartridges could be used to start a fire if nothing else in circumstances where a lot of other things won't. This may be the fact I was raised by conservative survivalists, but I was generally taught that having some kind of sidearm in adverse weather conditions was appropriate. There isn't cell phone service to speak of up there and traffic can be somewhat rare on some roads. In general I have the right to carry but only really exercise it on long distance road trips and occasionally when going into the inner city in some specific combination of circumstances that leaves me feeling more vulnerable than usual; i.e., a couple times a year, tops.

[Aaron]

It's cool, that's what I figured. I would have brought a 12 gauge but that's cause I don't own a sidearm.

[magic princess]

Yeah, I don't have a shotgun right now, just three pistols (and two are collector pieces, they can be fired but they're not terribly useful guns), and a Marlin 982 (.22 magnum with 7-round mags, bolt action) for target shooting.

[magic princess]

Randomly--is 7.62mm x 38R considered a legal pistol calibre in Canada, Aaron? It comes out to .30 on the US measurement, not a .32. Some are rechambered for .32 ammo but I know those would be illegal; I'm talking about the originals. Anyway it just seems incredibly odd that Canada bans .25 ACP and .32 but doesn't ban the heavier traditional mankiller rounds. I guess this is about concealability, but it still seems the opposite of common sense.
