For sure fake. Too many "lucky" shots of the bird. Since when do seagulls pick up non-food objects anyway?

Honestly, how could anyone know except the shooter? I got it from the description on YouTube. Seems like a pretty lucky shot if it was just someone with an assault rifle.

bcglorf: You seem to think Israel is currently "doing both" (handing out aid, killing militants) but every press release I've seen has shown that Israel is currently blowing the shit out of innocent people, with a couple lucky shots landing on a half-wit Hamas member here or there.


I think Israel is doing both, but I never said I thought they were doing a good enough job of both. A good example is when they target high ranking Hamas officials who publicly declare their support for rocket attacks on Israeli civilians. I'm glad they are targeting that kind of SOB, I'm not so ready to encourage their method of precision bombing him in his home and killing his wives and children at the same time.

What I am saying is there needs to be a real debate about the uncomfortable realities of the conflict. Hamas militants ARE targeting Israeli civilians with rocket and suicide attacks. Hamas militants ARE hiding in schools, mosques, and ambulances in civilian clothing. I'm not comfortable telling Israel they can't respond with deadly force against such militants, but neither am I comfortable just accepting the collateral casualities that Hamas does their utmost to ensure are inevitable. That leaves a question that is much harder to answer, what really is a justified response from Israel to dead Israeli civilians?

Today, Israel bombed the shit out of a UN school, filled with kids.

This is what an AP photographer reported:
"I saw women and men — parents — slapping their faces in grief, screaming, some of them collapsed to the floor. They knew their children were dead," he said. "In the morgue, most of the killed appeared to be children. In the hospital, there wasn't enough space for the wounded."

Okay lets stop arguing about the behind the back/over the head. Can we all just agree that its a nice (lucky) shot?

We would have to see more than these random lucky shots to be able to judge how good they are.

Holy crap I know that bowling alley.

Slapped me across the face like a jilted hooker - I bowl at the same alley!

Lame suburban white-boy antics, lucky shot, but I BOWL AT THAT SAME ALLEY!

I'm sorry, but this is just another of the pathetic video game movies that deserves this brilliant treatment

Get the crap over yourselves.

Sure, be really excited at the time, 'twas a lucky shot, but to go to the effort of making a fricken video with slow mo repeats and a shite soundtrack... you do know how really, really insignificant this achievement was don't you?

That was a nice, lucky shot.

That's because you have not yet learned to strike at the core of Google's strength. To find the videos you seek, you must become... a cockpuncher! Have you got the balls?

Wow, that's insane. I'm confident that I have a billionth degree black belt in Google-fu, so that if I can't find something, it simply doesn't exist on the internet. I tried everything under the sun to find that, but I must have been drunk to miss that. Thanks again.

Actually, I just looked for "good samaritan saves cop" and it was the only one that came up. Lucky shot I guess.

I saw that you fixed my "good Samaritan" video - thanks a bunch! I tried and tried and tried to find a replacement, but just couldn't. What tags did you use to find it?

This is only shocking to people who are unfamiliar with gaming conversation to begin with. And for that matter people who forget what it was like to be between the ages of 15-25 (give or take).

Males in that age group tend to be vulgar and abusive to each other. If they lived together theyd punch, kick, prank, humiliate each other as well. The fact that these actions are predominantly aimed at the maker of this video is obvious, the name. If someone was named aznsniper, beaner, spictastic, curryking, frenchfry, or any other name indicating personal information about them then they'll likely have insults hurled at them as well. Some maybe more than others but it'll happen eventually.

That coupled with the fact that the maker likely did kill other people and its a gauranteed reaction. If i own some guy its not unlikely he may say something like "lucky shot" or "noob class/weapon" or "RANDOM". But if my names something like the above listed instead I'll hear "go back to mexico" "why dont you go eat some rice" "bomb anything lately?" "surrender to the germans lately?" etc.

I'm not condoning this behavior, but one must accept that certain environments will harbor certain behaviors. If I go into a femanist chat room I should expect to hear unpleasant things about men. If I go into a biker bar I should expect to hear vulger language and unpleasant things about yuppies and import cars. If I go into a gay bar id hear bad things about conservative people.

If I prefer not to be in the presence of such things, i either find a well managed/monitored server or i find a different game. I know a TF2 server i play on will boot people for cussing or lude comments after one warning, and in general i have a great time there.

Nice vid rembar, and good to see plenty of Genki Sudo in there. Interesting rant... uh, discussion, too. If anyone cares I'd like to chip in my 2 cents:

Enzoblue: I also think you're pretty misguided too. It *is* a shame when fights end prematurely because of a silly mistake or lucky shot/sub, but that's the nature of the sport of full contact fighting, whatever form or style it takes. The fact that it doesn't happen more serves to highlight the amount of skill the professionals have at covering themselves.

Now, when it comes to style vs. style fighting I think there's a hugely important point that hasn't really been covered so far, which is the nature of the training. To put it succintly, if you want to be a good fighter you need to spar. Freely. A lot.

Also, and to digress a bit, while ring-bound MMA is about the best anologue we have for "real fighting", it by no means provides the definitive answer about which martial art is the best. There are still rules and restrictions taken for safety's sake. Also, I imagine that while everyone wants to win, there aren't many who wish to inflict grevious permanent harm or even mortal wounds on their opponents.

No style is the best, or all of them are, depending on how you look at it and what you want to get from it. You can look at martial arts as fighting, or you can look at them as art forms. I'm reminded of a Bruce Lee quote from Enter the Dragon: "It is like a finger pointing to the moon. If you just look at the finger, you will miss all that heavenly glory." Even if you narrow your view to just fighting, the answer still isn't clear cut. Is fighting just one-on-one? Where is it happening? Are there things in the environment that are going to play a role in the outcome? Are you prepared or taken by surprise? All these things and more play a massive role.
