||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
it was a bank but yea he just went in, signed up for a bank account, and the bank tellers (who are licensed firearms dealers as well) gave him a gun from their collection of FIVE HUNDRED guns there in the bank. fucking madness. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hope they show it here :( i love michael moore |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
was he for gun control or was he explaining both sides?.. the thing about gun control is criminals are going to get gns no matter what, why punish the responisble gun owners who use it for hunting and self protection.. |
||||||||
|
|

i read a review about that film on the weekend, the pic for it had him holding a hunting rifle and a camera, it looks hilarious. |

moore's a member of the NRA and as a kid he used to win awards for shooting, so he comes at the issue pretty fairly. obviously it's a VERRRRRRY subjective documentary but it's well grounded at the same time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe they will, but the US has so many in circulation and so many deaths by firearms. Its a very different story over here where we have far fewer shootings. |

im seeing it tomorrow. ill report back tomorrow |

i used to be into Michael Moore's stuff, including both TV shows he's had in the past. but i dunno, i just got kind of sick of politics in general and lost interest in him or anything political. it just gets tiresome. Guy A doesn't like Guy B, so Guy A complains about it, then Guy B complains about that and starts to complain about Guy A, and it just goes on and on... life is too short to whine about politics. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
um what about the rights of humans, animals, workers, etc.? is that not important? politics isn't just about whining. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sounds like good thinking to me.. a bank with 500 guns INSIDE already.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
exactly. just like armed pilots. terrorists, leave your guns at home, we've got you covered! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah.. you bring some ammunition, open a bank account, get a gun and rob the bank.. its a 4-step plan! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hope the documentary comes out in the Netherlands too.. love Moore.. |

LOL criminals are going to get guns no matter what?? lol, great point we should make nuclear bombs legal, cus people are going to bulid them no matter what its a clear and indeniable pattern that countries with strict gun control have much lower violent crime rates and how is making someone register their gun "punishing" them?? what about limiting the kinds of guns available? how is denying someone a fucking M-16 punshing them??? NOBODY shoudl have the right to powerful weapons like that sometimes the United States seems to be possessed by a rampant individualism bordering on anarchy (ok thats a bit of an over-statement but u know what i mean).... its insane |

btw ive heard this documentary is great, im looking forward to seeing it |

you're such a tool. you really enjoy trying to provoke people, huh? first off, I didn't say the subject matter was unimportant, ya fucking gimp. I simply stated that it gets tiring hearing the same people complain about the same crap over, and over, and over, and over again without ever really doing anything to make some kind of change. if you like being so political, why don't you get off your ass, leave the mb, and try making a real difference in the world? you won't, because you know you can't, nobody can, and that's why politics gets boring fast. everyone complains about something, but do we ever try to change it? of course not, that involves work. |

now shut up and leave me alone, thanks. |

mm.. sounds like titsworth hit on a sore spot there.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
*yawn* now THAT was boring.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
get a life, kid. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how am i supposed to leave you alone if you keep coming at me with these cliche retorts? |
||||||||
|
|

if you want to live your life stuck up and annoyed with every single aspect in the world you disagree with and always be unhappy, then by all means, go for it. but don't try to drag me down with you, i'm perfectly happy living a life without worry of things that can't and won't change just because i don't like it. take you for example: you're a goddamn cunt, but will I waste my time complaining and try to change you? of course not, some things just aren't worth the effort. |

i'm not replying to any of your generalizations cos they're baseless. you're guessing (not necessarily correctly) at my tone through text on a message board. assuming you even get the tone correctly, how can you approximate my whole lifestyle and personal interests? when have i ever said i was annoyed with every single aspect of the world? i think you're projecting here. i don't know what's wrong with you but i know it has nothing to do with me. i wish you luck in sorting out your problems. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you're both idiots. let's leave it at that and move on with our lives, mmm'kay? good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
talk about blatant arrogance :) no wonder ppl dislike you, heh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
\/\/. i am who i am, deal with it. i don't troll for friends, so if people dislike me that's their business. i have enough things to think about without worrying if enough people like me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol :) aren't you special? yawns in your general direction |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont see whats wrong with that post. he is just defending himself from conformists accusations.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"so if people dislike me that's their business" then why bother trying to start a fight with Conformist? :) let him have his opinion and just ignore him, no harm done guys everyone being too uptight tonight on the mb :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was just clarifying myself for anyone who's interested in the truth. he's still more than likely to take his anger out on me, i just don't want people to get the wrong idea about my views on the world. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i meant "more than welcome" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
then why do you continue taking your anger out on him? seems you did provoke him in other topics i've seen... you tend to do that with him often again that's just from what i've seen, i could be wrong |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't see why so many people try to rip into titsworth for voicing his honest opinion :/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's just a message board anyhow, supposedly geared toward electronic music. who cares about anyones views of the world? let's talk about music :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lets take sides! I'm with titsworth on this one.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but it's wrong for Conformist to voice his honest opinion? that's a rather diluted way to think |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
to be honest, except for 10 or so users i don't even pay attention to people's names. i have a habit of just reading the messages, only sometimes reading who wrote them. even then i often lose track of who's who cos there are so many people on here. if i reply it's not cos i'm picking on someone but cos a message or topic has spurred me to respond. it's not that deep, really. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what ever happen to the discussion about the flick? was it good? should i go spend 8 bucks? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all i mean though is there's no sense in fighting you guys :) come on, get happy! lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
zombie: it's excellent! i can't wait to get it on dvd, i really enjoyed it. it sucks when people topic-jack, but if an issue needs to be addressed then so be it.. it'd be nice if they started a new topic first tho |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i got a similar problem.as soon as people change their avatars i forget who they are.. its annoying. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah, go for the conflict.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hear you. thats one of the reasons i started posting less. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
elastic: are you taking the piss or what? just a few minutes ago you were saying i deserve it for my arrogance and now you're saying we're being childish for fighting? have you read my replies to conformist? i'm not even fighting. it IS pointless cos it doesn't really have anything to do with me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gubb: i keep seeing conformist's avatar, reading his posts (on other threads), and wondering when i wrote that... until i read his user name |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm sorry I seem so deluded to you (?) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no no, i'm just saying we all should get over it and move on. is it really worth it to try and top each other on the nastiness meter? :) i'm not pointing the finger of blame at anyone, not for what anyone said including myself, i just think it's pointless to drag this out forever. like someone else said, let's just get back to the real topic here: bowling for columbine |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe it's this topic name that has you guys heated? i don't think i'm being nasty. i'm trying to explain my actions, but asides from that i just aim to be myself - not nasty, polite, or anything in specific. i speak my mind, and if i can't do so on an idm message board, then where can i? |
