Reply #67: no, really, I'm sorry

Omega Man's gun is loaded and he is about to shoot zombies at the behest of the movie director.

No, really. Really. That's Charlton Heston. It really really isn't Omega Man.

I just hadn't expected to have to overcome delusions of this nature. Please, I assure you. It isn't Omega Man. It's Charlton Heston. And that wasn't Santa Claus, it really really was your daddy.

It's Charlton Heston with his finger on the trigger of a firearm. For all Charlton Heston knew, that firearm was loaded. He had absolutely no business putting his finger on the trigger. None.


It may or may not be loaded - it is impossible to tell from the picture.

That's right. It's impossible to tell from the picture.

You have two clues, though:

- the statement of someone who knew (unlike you, who doesn't have a clue) that the firearm was not loaded
- the fact that Dianne Feinstein actually (I know, I know, it's hard to believe) is not a complete fucking idiot, and that it's highly unlikely that everyone involved in putting that firearm in her hands on that occasion was a complete fucking idiot


"Prop" in one case, "prop" in the other. You really just have no way to slither around that one.


If Feinstein has a concealed weapons permit, she received training and passed testing that included safe gun handling - that is not what she is doing in that picture and her permit should be revoked.

And if the dog hadn't stopped to pee, you'd have a point.

Feinstein does not have a concealed weapons permit. And your puny opinion about what should have been done with it, had she had one, really doesn't matter a pinch of poop anyway.
