Don't know if I should laugh or cry. Oh for god's sake, who do I think I'm kidding; I laughed a lot. But I'm not proud of myself.

Thanks. Seriously entertaining.

That brings back memories from back in Romania in the early 90's. :lol:

brando 11-21-2012 10:06 AM

I dunno - as an RTA-induced cripple I don't find it particularly hilarious - more like proof that it doesn't matter how good a driver anyone is, or how expensive or classy their vehicle they drive, it can all be wiped away by one arrogant, or inept, or add your own adjective, ****head in an instant. It's not just confined to Russia either.

Jaws2002 11-21-2012 05:53 PM

The problem in Rusia, like it was back in Romania in the 90's, a lot of people that didn't have enough driving experience, got themselves driving faster western cars. After communism fell, there were a lot of people bringing in older, but fast cars from the west. The roads in Romania were not made for the speeds this cars could get, and the drivers weren't up to the task either.
Add to that almost universal corruption in the law enforcement, where you could buy your way out of a drunk driving violation with a cople of beers.
Add in the mix the limitless human stupidity and ignorance, and you get what you see above there.

tk471138 11-21-2012 08:26 PM

i guess i can see how it would be prudent to put a camera in your car over there....

alot of funny or interesting clips in that video (one showed a lightning strike, another showed some guy firing a gun at a guy who just hit him)

Wasn't Oleg Maddox (ex CoD boss/owner/chief) in a bad road accident twice? I know he was hospitalised, and that he had been hit by a lorry on one of the occasions. I think maybe he was hit again during recovery from the first 'accident'.

There is an insurance incentive to have a video camera active in your car. It mitigates blame - according to some of the You Tube postings i've read.

Camera
 
Camera clearly shows IMO
That camera guy has music on not consentrating on his driving as he overtakes whithout a clear road.
Think the footage would go against him lol.
Bet he didnt post that Vid until after his settlement:rolleyes:

when i drive and i have my 1911, i sometimes brandish that in front of other drivers when i probably shouldnt....(one time i remember some huge commercial truck was tailgating pretty closely....i slammed on the breaks pulled out my gun and waved it around at him....the guy still wanted me to pull over to i guess fight me....i just pointed my gun at him and drove away another time involved a smaller truck tailgating, i didnt do anything till i realized he was doing it to an elderly person, so i slowed down to kinda trap driver behind the elderly person he was tailgating...he kept inching closer to me trying to scare me away...i just pulled out my gun pointed it at his face and he stopped, thats 1 instance where my gun probably saved my life)....probably shouldnt do that but its hard not to with the idiots in the usa drive most of the time (you would think all are firefighters, who all have some house fire to put out somewhere....the idiot americans simply race (waste gas) just to get to the next stoplight faster....its crazy...also you can look forward to the first snowfall of the season thats always fun...i guess the idiots in this country forget in a matter of months how to drive in slippery conditions....



also, is doing what i do illegal?? i mean im not like firing it at anyone just brandishing it to other drivers in violation of the law, usually in a way that puts myself and my passengers (sometimes my children) in danger....i look at it no differently than defending one self...except i have a gun and the other person has a motor vehicle that sometimes can weigh tons so i still see my self as a disadvantage...a car is still more deadly than a gun by far...

knowing the way cops are in this country they would probably freak out over someone defending themselves with a gun...but turn a blind eye to the guy menacing people with their motor vehicles that weight tons...even thought the guy with the motor vehicle driving it recklessly is far more dangerous...

Was going to mention that it's not just the USA... we have the same idiots in Canada that race to the next red light, but the gun thing is a little unacceptable..

What happens when one of those idiots has a gun aswell..? (because they probably don't think they're doing much wrong, or at least they act that way with our lives in their hands). Do I have to worry about you guys having a firefight on the highway as I transport one or more of my family members on a highway? You people and your guns...

tk471138, you are one of the morons that makes trouble for those of us who are responsible firearms owners.

You have no business owning a firearm, much less brandishing it.

I will safely assume that you do not have a permit to carry it either, yes?

Do your family, yourself, and those of us that care about responsible firearms use a big favor... Leave the pistol at home until such time as you are mature enough to carry it in an adult manner.

Think about what you are doing.

LOL someone is going to hit me (in my moving vehicle) from their moving vehicle? is that what you are saying??


also

misusing a motor vehicle that may weight tons, is far more irresponsible than what i do...how is someone menacing you with a motor vehicle any different thatn someone menacing you with any other deadly weapon??

well its a good thing that their is such a thing as the second amendment and god given rights, here in the united states....perhaps you shouldn't comply with unconstitutional (and thus illegal) laws that prohibit a constitutional right....blame the traitors to this country who take oaths to the constitution and then pass laws that infringe on the rights of the people, or those who enforce such unconstitutional laws blame them as well...but no im the bad guy...you people are jokes...why dont you assert and exercise your rights instead of being cowards following any and every laws (even those that are illegal) see unlike you im not afraid of standing up for myself, even of that means standing up to supposed govt authorities or any other bully....

id rather die on my feet than live on my knees like a coward, doing nothing while my rights are infringed (gun laws)

Nah, you just don't understand how unsafe YOU are being, just like the "dangerous" motorist doesn't realize he/she is doing something dangerous.

If you have to go on a forum about computer games to check firearms laws in your country, then you shouldn't have a gun.

You're either mega-stupid, trolling, or a stupid troll..

ATAG_Snapper 11-24-2012 12:37 PM

I think it's safe to say that anyone who brandishes a gun several times in traffic is likely to have his licence number phoned in to 911 by a concerned motorist. There would certainly be a "welcoming committee" on his return home -- who would be taking no chances. I would say the gun brandishing happened no more than once, if at all.

Is this a serious question? Of course it's illegal! If another motorist accuses you of aiming a weapon at them and the police pull you over and find said weapon you will be arrested and jailed on the spot.

It is also incredibly stupid and irresponsible. You pull that crap in Georgia where I live (where everyone carries a gun) you will probably get your ass shot off.

Please get rid of your guns, take a defensive driving class and grow up.

lol people aim cars (also can be deadly weapons at me all the time) when im driving on the highway all the cars behind me are "aimed" at me...should i call the cops on them....o wait they wouldnt do anything cuz they only selectively enforce the laws...see cops run around like cowards anytime someone has a gun....but a car they dont really care....


how come one of the guys in the video was allowed to actually FIRE a gun at a vehicle that just bumped into him?? thats right he fired three shoots...no one is on here crying about that....

when the front of something is pointed at you or facing the direction you are, thats how you know its "aimed" at you....

motor vehicles kill way more people than guns, terrorism, drugs and alot of other things the media likes to sensationalize about....yet we dont see the fools running around trying to ban cars...

raaaid 11-24-2012 07:04 PM

yes but pay attention to what you said in resume

since they are aiming their car at me is right to aim my gun at them

driving can be very stressfull myself i have a car but rather use public transportation, trains are very fun :)

seems to me that if while you drive you get to those situations thats one factor to avoid

BAN FREE SPEECH BAN FIRST AMENDMENT...

I DONT LIKE THEIR IDEAS SO IT MUST BE BANNED...yea ok hitler..i mean major_setback...i mean hitler youth member

you are such a good person....you dont like their speech so you just say "ban it" you are a brown shirt...


also motor vehicle deaths in the usa 33000....which is much higher than the gun deaths in the usa for 2010

and deaths caused by doctors and the medical system again higher than gun deaths...(and motor vehicle deaths)...Dr. J. Mercola released a book in 2000 titled Doctors are the Third Leading Cause of Death in the US, Causing 250,000 Deaths Every Year. His breakdown, however, largely focuses on errors in hospitals and includes 12,000 deaths by unnecessary surgery, 7,000 due to medication errors in hospitals, 20,000 due to other errors in hospitals, 80,000 from infections in hospitals, and 106,000 from the negative effects of medications.


so let see guns are the lowest of the three ive mentioned here...yet everyone is freaking out about the whole gun situation....you people are truly sad and disgusting...

so how many of you fools are gonna still go to your doctor and take pharmaceuticals while still condemning guns which are safer??

ATAG_Doc 11-25-2012 07:35 PM

I've always wondered what the motives were behind people picking one thing out of many others to call for its elimination when there are other more deadly tools and objects that results in far more harm and deaths annually.

He does have a point. There are far more people killed by drunk drivers every year. Why don't the authorities just do breathalyzer test at the doors of bars and stop playing games like catch the drunk driver.

Seems cutting it off at the source is a better solution. I mean most do drive to a bar so it would seem logical to drive home from the bar also.

Perhaps ban bars all together but that would hurt sales tax so forget that.

no but if you respect the rights of others it shouldnt matter....obviously if i run a private website i would run it the way i want...but since i value the rights of others, i would probably choose to institute free speech policy...

unlike you i dont call for sanctions on others just cuz i dont approve of what they say...you are nothing but garbage...

he is technically right...but its quite telling when a so called "freedom loving" individual starts trying to stifle the speech or rights of others....clearly this guy is a typical american who only cares about his own rights, and not the rights of the individual...

its really easy to judge others and to assume you know what is best for them, using that to justify imposing your will upon others....

thats all he is doing...he didnt like what i said and now he wants some "authority" to impose sanctions upon me..


also regarding your previous post...the reason why govt prohibitions certain things or behaviors is not to keep us safe...its simply to shape behavior of the people as if they were a dog getting trained....thats what those in govt (at the highest levels) see us as...animals (maybe sheep?) that need to be taken care of and regulated.....


the laws that pertaining to reckless driving is all the legal ammunition you need for intoxicated drivers....but they add laws specifically for drunk driving as an excuse to set up check points and other types of quasi legal (constitutional) activity (like no refusal weeks, where people are forced to submit to blood draws...

his statement seemed to convey that he dosent care about anyone's rights, especially when they might annoy him or if he disagrees..

also...not just americans have rights...remember the first legal document of this country said something like "all men are created equal (meaning equal under the law) and are endowed by their creator with rights" something like that...key words their are ALL MEN which means all people...something he wants to disregard...

Let's see. He does not like what you said and tries to get rid of you by calling "authorities" to ensure the "win" of his opinion that way. You, don't like his opinion either, so you call him "garbage", 'hitler", "hitler youth", and that way you are trying to indirectly get rid of him by damaging his image in forum. It seems your aims are pretty similar, and only means differ. ;)

You need to define what exactly do you mean by saying "freedom of speech". It became very abused term lately, usually twisted and overextended for personal agendas. I.e. some people think that hate speech is or should be covered by freedom of speech.

Read back to where I got in on this. It will be crystal clear I hope. :grin: If not let me know.

People who do legally carry guns don't usually say these things even behind the small temporary anonymity the internet makes you believe you have.

People who are legally carrying and strapped usually don't say these things at all because they know how special of a gift they have and it's taken care of very responsibly.

You misuse it to enforce your opinions on someone else you will lose it. It's only meant to protect you or someone else's life from eminent deadly harm. When you do carry you conceal it.

Why? All he's done is admit what an asshole he is in public. Surely such behaviour deserves our admiration and applause?

Well said.

tk you're only saying beliefs that others have said in other threads though theirs were more toned down and forum friendly.

The amazing thing for me is the arbitrary nature of freedom of speech on this forum. OK it's whatever 1C want it to be but I cannot believe this has t been locked down.

One’s man’s hate speech is another man’s free speech. Reminds me of pussy riot constroversy. Putin decides to let one girl go free to appease those in the population who think their act was legitimate free speech, then put’s in prison the other girl to appease those that think it was hate speech, then keeps the pretty girl to be his personal sex slave. He,he. Those kgb, they can’t drive, but they really know how to work the system!

On the other hand, there is Obama, who appoints a homosexual as ambassador to Libya as red meat to muslim dogs so they can murder and rape a dead corpse on 911. Why did Obama do this? Well going into the election, his voter base (i.e., >90% of all blacks) were pissed that he was supporting gay marriage. So, he had to counter that. So he’s cool with them now and got their vote.

Lol. IBL.:-P

Of course it's not locked. The threads that actually talk about the game this forum were made for are the only ones that get closed. This would be the perfect example of a thread that would stay in the general discussion area while the Clod general discussions are all moved or locked. Makes perfect sense to me.

clearly you arent that bright...the first legal document of the country i live in states that our freedoms are endowed to us by our creator...if a spaghetti monster created you (which would explain somethings) then thats fine...

the REAL reason it says this, really has nothing to do with god or religion...the reason it says our rights are endowed to us BY our creator is to make it clear and obvious that our rights are NOT granted to us by the state....

in fact it cant be any other way...that is unless you dont value your freedom....


their is always some fool that hears this "endowed by our creator" and automatically assume that its about religion and stuff and makes a big deal out of it...typical fool...

Would that be your mother or father or are they equal, since they created you?

pro freedom

the essence of a free society is that you aught to be left alone UNLESS you encroach or directly infringe on the rights of others...

but now we ticket 3 year olds (for thousands of dollars) for learning to urinate in their yard...
now we put 1o year olds on sexual offender lists cuz they did something out of curiosity that is normal and innocent for most children
now we arrest consenting adults entering in to a private contract or sale (drug dealing, prostitution)

Wow!! I have never been disparaged based upon my faith before. Nor have I seen such behaviour by anyone one this forum.

You have really sunk to a new low TK. And you have the nerve to call other people 'Hitler youth' and 'Brown Shirts". Maybe you should do some soul searching and have a good hard look at yourself and your attitudes.

It might be good for you to read the rules for this forum - or even just rule number 1 for now.

Also I'm reasonably sure that the authors of the US constitution knew what they ment when they wrote it and would be more than a little bemused by your interpretation

But don't become too despondant, even if you don't believe in Him, for when the time comes, it is my firm belief, that the Flying Spaghetti Monster will still embrace you in His warm Noodly Appendages!

LOL so you bolded the part about how what im talking about has NOTHINg to do with religion....yet still believe that im disparaging you based on your religion or faith??

my interpretation is the right one....by the way and its quite obvious...

they had to specifically say that rights do not originate with government...the best way to do this would be to establish (in the first legal document of the US) that our rights are INNATE or that they come from our creator...notice they said "creator" not god, jesus, yehweh ect....nothing to do with religion or faith...

the reason for this is cuz governments up to this point in history (and still today) think that they can dictate the rights the people have and take them away at will...if this was not the case....we the people would not have rights....all we would have is privileges granted to us by govt that can be taken away at anytime...




also you are a hypocrite...your statement:

"The Flying Spaghetti Monster gave me rights??????

First I've heard of it! Cool! "

was also obviously meant to be disparaging towards me....but i guess for someone like you its ALWAYS appropriate to ridicule anyone who mentions god a creator or something of that nature....


i bring up a creator, you bring up flying spaghetti monster...hmmm i wonder what your intent was there....


you are just a hypocrite and a fool...it seems that i was right in that assessment as well...

im just pointing out the hypocrisy...you are the one who has thin skin like a baby crying about spilt milk...

Al Schlageter 11-29-2012 10:57 PM

Do those that believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster also believe in the tooth fairy, banshees, leprechauns, Bigfoot, Nessy, vampires, mermaids, ogres, ...........?

TK, you use the word 'hypocrisy' several times but I don't think you are using it in the right context.

An example of hypocrisy would be to extol the virtue of free speech and then denigrate anyone one else that says something that doesn't agree with you. Now that would be hypocritical!

You state that the US Constitution (which was written by people with a predominantly Christian background) specifically mentions "their creator", (so they could be inclusive to all the citizens of the US regardless of their faith or belief systems - which, when you think about it, was an amazingly modern thinking and virtuous thing to do), but then then you denigrate anyone who doesn't share the same beliefs and faith as yourself. Hey, there is a word starting with "Hypo" for that one too!

Thankyou TK! If there is one thing I have learnt from this thread it’s that if I ever get a chance to travel to the US I’ll be secure in my knowledge that my freedom of speech is guaranteed under the US Constitution (See note #1) and I won’t be persecuted for the expression of my faith. Oh! And to always carry a .50cal Desert Eagle in the glove box because the guy with the biggest gun gets to merge first! ;)

Sweet!


Note #1 As a guest in any country - freedom of speech guaranteed - or not - I would still feel a great responsibility to abide by the unwritten laws of accepting hospitality and try my best to remember I was a guest and not to abuse that freedom of speech! No one likes a loud mouth foriener stomping about shooting their mouth off! :rolleyes:

Very Good question Al,

the simple answer is that you are entitled to believe in them if you so choose, but remember that many faith systems are backed up by stories that are written by people.

You should always take these stories with a grain of salt. In many of these stories the author may not have meant you to take the story literally but were just trying to give examples to guide peoples actions.

For example:
Brush your teeth because the Tooth Fairy gives you diddly squat for rotten teeth!
If you don't do what your mum says and carry food through wolf infested forests you live with the consequences!

You should regularly re-examine your faith, question everything and occasionally turn a blind eye to certain inconsistencies where appropriate.


Cheers!

What ever it takes to get me through the day Ibis! :)

Life as a Pastafarian is not easy! Do you know any other faith that has a Hate Mail section on their official web page?

I would post a link to the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, but I honestly believe that any spiritual journey should come from within and if you can't be arsed googling it your not entirely ready for such a journey!

I wonder if any of the Development team are Pastafarians? Stranger things have happened.

Cheers and good will to all!
