i was just trying to put a date on the video. it could have been several years old, so it wouldn't be very compelling evidence against the military if the video was from the 60's or 70's

How is this any different than the villainizing/dehumanizing that goes on during any war. The soviets were godless communists, Charlie was barbarian guerrilla fighter, the krauts were heartless fascist oaths. This is part of a much bigger problem. I know there is the whole psychological aspect, were it's easier for a soldier to kill another man if he is dehumanized, but if there is a war that deserves to be fought i don't think the people training the soldiers should need to invoke this into them.

Just a side note, how old is this footage? Its blurry, but it looks like the gun is an MG42, and the officer or w/e seems to be wearing a pretty out of date uniform. But it could just as well be a cellphone video , who knows.


EDIT: Nvm, its actually one of these suckers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rheinmetall_MG3 , looks a hell of a lot like an MG42 though, article says the german army is replacing them with the an H&K version (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heckler_%26_Koch_MG4) but they could still be using the older model in training.

i agree

Call me old fashioned but i think i will keep my money in the bank... besides im the type of person that would loose the bloody thing.

And secondly, why in the hell would you need an instructional video on how to do this?

Great show! Well the great war episodes, i didnt think the other ones were as good, its funny to see hugh laurie make an ass of himself.

lol, I feel like such a nerd for laughing at that

yea we didnt get much snow back in Toronto, people didnt seem to mind, but the summers are horrible here. I think you said you used to live here back in the TAYtv days so I'm sure you know what it's like.

great post man, how is the global warming treating you on the west coast?

Glass is harder(tougher) than metal, therefore metal cant even scratch glass, if you take your keys to a window you can scratch to your heart's content and it wont do anything unless there is some sort of plastic coating on the glass. It's very really basic material science, look it up if you don't believe me.

So what is he doing? Either cracking the glass, which is not the same as cutting, or just switching the pieces of glass underwater since you cant see the glass. Or its simply not a silica based material.

that last line was brilliant

bansky is truly brilliant
check out his website if you liked this one

Brilliant. Care to post the full doc, or at least to give us the name of what this is from?

Edit: thank you.

what? are you saying that the guy would have been less compelled to drive while intoxicated if he was an american?

both geraldo and oraley are some of the saddest dumbest fucks I have ever seen, but one of them seems to have more common sense than the other. You cant blame the guy for being an undocumented immigrant, but you can blame him for being an ignorant fuck, and ignorance is universal and extremely prominent in mr.oraley's country.
You can't blame something like this on the 'what if's, because they are countless. And I dont even want to think of a place that will deport a guy for getting a parking ticket.

I hope i misunderstood what you were trying to say because if you are the type of person that would rather close himself off from the world and live in your happy little bubble rather than accept something as simple as diplomacy then im not sure how you found TAYtv in the first place

actually im pretty sure most of his audience are 5th graders (or at least have the mental capacity of one) I cant wait to see Olbermann's take on this one.

Oh and I heard that next week oreily argues that the world is flat and then clubs a bunch of baby seals because they are supporting the environmentalists' agenda.

Most episodes of bullshit i can agree with, mostly because they pick on the craziest people they can find, but a few made me want to punch pen in the face. I think that is the premise of the show, agreeing wholeheartedly with the man or wanting to kill him. This season has been taking on some topics that i think the pair have the wrong opinions about, namely this one and the obesity one.
