  1. A bit too airbrushed. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  2. Well, was he armed? Because that means he should have been OK. Or is it that if the police were there then everyone should be ok. Or...if he had military experience then he would've been deemed psychologically fit to...I don't know. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

    Entourage

    I've given this show a lot of chances and I just can't relate to any of these douche-bags. I'm outside of the 18-35-year-old target audience so maybe that's it. Maybe I should've spent more time glued to MTV reality shows, the only thing that could make Entourage seem comparatively watchable. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  5. Isn't that right, Mr. Poopie Pants!" "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  6. This entire thread is mentally on par with a "My dad can beat up your dad" conversation between 6-year-olds. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  7. That's not a bad idea at all. Just plant an airship at 15k and hoist gondolas full of passengers to altitude. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  8. Call me a repetetive fan-boy but Episode 1. I say that because there exists a standard to which a movie needs to be made and Lucas entirely ignored it. I'll let Plinkett say it in long form: Red Letter Media: Star Wars : Episode 1 Oh, and Han Shot First. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  9. Do a tandem event involving members of your specific target audience at either a conspicuous location or somewhere that's easily accessible by the press and public. Make the goal a quantity of tandems in a given timeframe. Publicize the goal as raising awareness for the rights of writers, musicians, whatever it may be. Oh and find a way to tie in the "Don't Copy That Floppy" meme. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  10. It would help to know what the company does. And anything that's going to be seen by only skydivers (patches, canopies) is a waste of money. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  11. From 3000 ft and down your time is spent setting up your landing, not learning your canopy. It's a waste of a jump unless your specific objective is ONLY landings and for some reason you don't want to maximize your canopy time. There are many canopy exercises you can run through in jumps from altitude, go find a canopy course. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  12. Actually, one of the first missions of this platform will be base or embassy aerial observation. Won't be long before it's weaponized. It doesn't have to be manned. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  13. I think Kallend cared more about this Than this: All I hear is crickets. My take is that gun owners need to figure it out before the 2nd amendment is modified. And by the way, don't look to the NRA for this. They don't represent American citizens, they represent people willing to give them money. Never forget that. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  14. Please elaborate, I'm not sure how you've interpreted my post. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  15. I'm from DC and know all about this school. This is where the richest and most high profile people in DC send their kids their children. So yes, there are 11 armed guards. edit: and to clarify, they send their kids here because they SPECIFICALLY are targets. I don't know about the guy you're referring to but he's probably one of the other rich people who want whatever it is they think Sidwell will give them.

  16. Yeah she was a "gun nut", not that it's a bad thing, and he shot her in the face. She failed to keep her guns safe from criminal use and this massacre was the result. I take what people see as the liberal view because if we as gun owners cannot fix the problem IN A METHOD THAT IS ACCEPTABLE TO THE VOTING MAJORITY, then the decision will be made FOR us. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  17. Family friends have reported that she taught him to shoot. Personally, I keep my guns safe. In fact they're at my ex- cop friends house because I have no way of securing them in my own. I'm not a gun nut but I do target shoot and hunt. I can't fucking stand irresponsible gun owners. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  18. Do you work in a school have you ever worked in a school? Looking for the perspective of someone who would actually be in charge of having to wear a holster 100% of their working day in.....ducking K-12. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  19. So you trust all these teachers to keep their firearms in a spot that is simultaneously accessible AND safe from a school full of children? We're having this conversation in the first place because one woman didn't keep her guns safe from her one deranged son. How is this making the school safer? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  20. The solution is...........Cylons. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  21. There's been hardly a peep that this guy's mother had easily accessible firearms under the same roof as a crazy person. My guns are at an entirely different address just because I don't have a lockable cabinet. Sure, a gun is a tool. But we know what this tool does. How are we so oblivious? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  22. Any real solution is either going to be inexpensive and elegant or nothing. And we're not starting an arms race inside the 100,000 schools in America or have some kind of TSA equivalent. Do you know who first proposed this idea 16ish years ago? Matt I'm going to go blind on this one because you probably think that since I'm looking for an unarmed solution that you're going to completely blow my mind and say it was John Kerry or Bill Clinton. Because it's more about politics isn't it. You're losing more sleep over the 2nd ammendment than the 6th commandment. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  23. The downside is we spend a lot of money on a stupid idea. This is like GM saying that the only way to have fewer accidents on the roads is for the police to buy more cars. Sure, it's ONE solution but no ONE solution is the best solution or the all encompassing single answer that will make everyone happy, which is what this is more about.

  25. Ever sat in on a school budget meeting? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
