Real or not is not the issue. Even accepting that it is Hollywood, there is no good reason for this, not even movie-making.

I don't know how old you are, but I've been around the fight for the 2nd Amendment long enough to know 1) a scene like this can only hurt us, real or not and 2) even it were funny, the amount of humor to be derived is not worth the trouble this can cause.

LOL. Have you read the quote in your signature. LOL. And you're talking about "can only hurt us". I'm seriously laughing my a** off over here. LOL.

Actually, my quote is directly from the talk the CO of the 1st Marine Division gave his troops before heading into Iraq. Besides that, I haven't put it in a movie for the grass eaters to see, although I admit they could find it here if they looked hard enough. To take it a step further and apply it to civilian life, although I said plan to kill everyone you meet, I didn't say to do it with GUNS.

OK, I'll laugh with you on that one...

I agree Tom but that's why shows are rated. If someone let's their 2 year old watch this it could affect them in the long run.

However, I grew up on the Rifleman, Have Gun Will Travel and every Clint Eastwood movie. They only affected me for the better.

I think a lot of people on this site are way to politically correct. We had a blast with this post on my AR 15 forum. Not one polliticaly correct statement. Everyone took it for what it is, MAKE BELIEVE!! It's a movie for crying out loud!!! I can't wait to see it, and no, I won't let my 2 year old watch it.

USMC1978, first let me say thanks for your service! I have to ask you though, do think the government should be in charge of movies also?? You guys that are being so politicaly correct should chill out and laugh at stuff that is funny! That was some funny chit!!! LMAO

You still have it posted for everyone in the world to see. If some kid reads that and then goes out and kills someone, you are not to blame. The little S.O.B. was going to do it anyway. It's a great signature and I hope you don't change it. (If you change it, I promise, I will steal it!!) LOL

If some dumba$$ watches that clip or movie and then tries it....Guess what, that dumb S.O.B. was going to do something stupid anyway. It's just life.

I'm far from PC. I'm often chided by my family and others for my 'intolerance.' I just didn't see any value in the clip, but opinions are just that: opinions.

Thanks for the discussion.

Here is the big issue with this stuff. Everyone takes everything out of context. your quote sounds kind of far right gun totting crazy but in the original context it makes sense. Kind of like the movie maybe when you watch it it will make sense. Though I think it will come back to bite us all in *** at some point. Heck properly be cage sitting there crying because some kid shot his little sister because he thought his daddy's tactical vest was bulletproof.
