MacGyver = classic survival

On another forum, we were discussing Mark Whalberg and the movie "Shooter." Marky-Mark is apparently a convicted felon and no one arrested him for putting his hands on real firearms and learning how to shoot real firearms. He put a man's eye out and just a bunch of other nastiness when he was a kid and broke a person's jaw in an apparently unprovoked attack as a young adult - but he still slammed Charlton Heston at an MTV Awards Show as a "real villain."

What a total POS as a human being.

And he's really not anything special compared to the rest of them.

Yep there is another example of the hollywoods getting their preferential treatment…
 
I just watched the most anti-gun episode in the series, where they explain how Mac watched a friend get shot to death because they were playing with a revolver found in his parent's drawer.

They were shooting pop bottles, his friend goes to shoot a bird. Mac pulls his arm, causing the gun to spiral behind them with the lever cocked, landing on the handle and shooting their friend in the stomach from the impact.
Their friend...flies back about six feet from the shot, and dies while being treated by EMTs. Mac tried to save him, but the EMTs even say something about kids and guns as they're treating his friend in front of him.

...The kid...flew back six feet...from what had to be a .38 to .45 at the most bullet hitting him in the midsection. Didn't any of their technical advisers want to make it less Hollywood and a bit more believable? I'm still raising my eyebrows over the thing firing because it hit the ground on the handle, in perfect firing position. But c'mon now, for a show based in physics and logic, why show the kid flying back because of a revolver bullet? They forgot to show the gun flying back when it shot, it just stood there and fired instead of flipping backwards, while its hundred pound target was sent flying.

My political brain isn't aching here, but the one that attended high school science physics is.
 
ALEX SCHIRA - "Didn't any of their technical advisers want to make it less Hollywood and a bit more believable?"

Technical advisors had nothing to do with the ideological thrust of the show, which was to aid in the demonization of firearms owned by the unwashed worker peasants (you, I, et. al).

I stated earlier in this thread that Henry Winkler, who was a co-creator of the show, and Executive Producer, was awarded the highest honor from Handgun Control, Inc., for his use of the show as a propaganda platform for brainwashing people to be in favor of gun confiscation.

Harry Dean Anderson is just as left wing and anti-guns for the unwashed worker peasants as is Henry Winkler.

Don't think of Winkler as "the Fonz:" think of Winkler as a left coast Senator Schumer.
