1. ...
Trying not to laugh...hypothetically it's funny. In reality it could be very unfunny.

5. Until some innocent bystander or a kid dragged along catches a round.
and they would. They inevitably do.

7. You know the first salvo they fire would be at any counter-protestors.
Edited on Wed Apr-07-10 12:23 PM by YOY
Or suspected counter protestors.

Not to be my usual "ray of sunshine" but it's true.

8. Yes - this is true
And that would be bad - and knowing the assholes, they would report "THEM LIBRULS DON SHOT AT US!"

12. This is one of those things that would be funnier in a movie than in real life.

14. One of those physical comedies of the 80s with audacious pranks.
Edited on Wed Apr-07-10 02:36 PM by YOY
Like Revenge of the Nerds...when the one kid dresses up like Darth Vader and seduces the cheerleader. Then he takes of his mask.

Movie line: "Oh...I didn't know nerds were so sexy." Everyone laughs.

Real World Line: {SCREAMS} followed by incarceration for rape. Definitely NOT FUNNY.

13. Yeah, not so much. Back in the late 80s a bunch of us high school kids were visiting D.C. and
several kids had boxes of "Snap n Pops."

Anyway they were blithely popping those things on the sidewalk when an admiral with a security detail came down the other side to get into a car. You could definitely see the people watching over him tense up until they realized what was making the noise. I can only imagine how this might have gone over in the ** years. (Not that Snap n Pops sound exactly like gunfire, but they were loud and can be very startling if you aren't aware someone has them.)
