Looked to me like he was shooting himself. Had his finger on the trigger when he got tased. After he refused to follow commands and tried to draw on the officers. No sympathy here.
Might have to shell out a few bucks if that ever comes to Knoxville. I've still got my shortboard that my mom had built for me when I was 11... I still ride it, switchfoot, and it's the ONLY board I can ride. These longboards kids are riding now would kill me.
Another surprise for me today- I didn't know Lindsay Buckingham had been fired from Fleetwood Mac! He's got a November show date here in Knoxville, planning on making that show fo sho. He was replaced by Neil Finn and Mike Campbell- that will completely change the chemistry of the band. Crowded House is probably my favorite "Euro" pop band, which Finn headed, and a former Heartbreaker with Campbell, wow.
Got to see Fleetwood Mac years ago, great show... Stevie Nicks had to use a Teleprompter to remember her lyrics, using a font size as big as my hand. Wearing stack shoes at least 6" high.
What gets me is the utter insistence that a comedy about people following the wrong man, one who keeps telling them he is not the messiah! Is, in fact, about the Messiah himself.
SPOILERS!!!!!!
I understand being shocked & appalled at the crucifixion scene, played for laughs. I wonder if the two antagonists, a Bishop & an actor? Ever, ever, considered how someone ignorant of the Bible ( over half the planet, even today, by design of the Chinese God Kings ( using a different name, than ancient Egypt ) ) reacts when he finds the symbol of a religion is a torture murder device used to strike terror in the hearts of the conquered?
Yes, if you know the story of Jesus, it is his trials & torture for disturbing the status quo that is a huge part of his heroism. A martyr to returning to the Word of God, not the profitable business of Temple worship and symbolic sacrifice, filling the pockets of the Establishment Church. ( Jewish, btw, not Roman )
You are, watching the movie, supposed to be shocked, yet laugh, as the mistaken identity and hunger for guidance ends in mortal tragedy. Brian isn't going to push aside the rock over the weekend. No eternal glory for him. He's a victim of followers that won't listen, but impose their notions on him.
Just like the antagonists in this debate do. It is They who are being mocked, not Jesus, and I think they just might know it, and that, at least in the actors? Case, really burns them.
An imaginary character, in a first person shooter game! that spouts obvious insanities has the SJWs convinced they are being picked on?
Thank you Loki! This is a hint that even they have a part of their minds that realizes how utterly full of feces they are.
The demons are obviously immigrants? Duh. No you idiots, The technical term is Invaders. They are invading and taking over. If you want to draw your own analogy to the Invasion of Europe as a product of Obama's Wars, feel free.
These people are a parody of themselves. If they were in Paris in 1940, would they insist that the Nazi tanks be called undocumented tourist buses?
My aunt and unkle used to be very VERY serious about civil war reenacting. They had huge trailer full of props and camping gear. They found that a cummins equipped dodge wasn't up to the challenge. It was doing the job bu he said it was working very hard all the time and was drinking heavily. They ended up with a freightliner box truck. They had it shortened with a camper+fifth wheel setup. It was really classy as hell. the fifth wheel area in back was all diamondplate so you could freely walk all over it.
They only got to use it for a couple of years before my aunt died (F#$% cancer!).

Holy crap! That IS serious. I fooled around with it for a couple of years. They have a yearly "ghost walk" at Magnolia Cemetery in Charleston, SC to raise money to support the cemetery. It's a very cool old cemetery; in addition to over 1000 Confederate soldier's graves there are some really cool and interesting monuments, like an actual stone pyramid mausoleum. It sprawls over acres and acres and is a neat place to visit if you're ever in Charleston.
Anyway, local reenacts participate in this event every year, and a guy I knew convinced me to come out. He loaned me a full uniform and a reproduction Enfield musket. The reenactors were set up to basically do "plays". Guides (ladies dressed up in period attire) would take groups through the cemetery to pre-arranged locations, and then we'd reenact some memorable event from the War. You'd wind up doing your act 5 or 6 times a night, plus we participated in multiple groups where more soldiers were required for effect.
Basically it amounted to running around in a graveyard at night with real weapons that you got to periodically fire and doing a lot of yelling and screaming. Holy crap was it fun. I just couldn't see the investment and time commitment that would be required to regularly participate. Come to think of it, a LOT of those guys were divorced.
I built the one in the middle back in the early/mid 80's from scratch. Laminated the board and cut the shape.
It's my go to travel board. The Intel one has only been ridden through the conference hall being chased by security. Seriously, if you didn't want me to ride it in the building, don't give it to me as a prize... Cheap wheels and bearings.
The bottom one is my trick board. Light and maneuverable.
