Macho? He looks gay, and overcompensating :p

 

Yeah, I wouldn't admit to being scared of him, not publicly.  ;)

 

Some overreaction going on here.  Looks like a tattoo, nothing like an actual gun, no dimension/depth.  And they (the tree trimmers) could have asked while he was standing there, no need to knock on the door.  Some people are just too jumpy and insecure.  :rolleyes:

People do tend to be "jumpy" when they think a firearm is involved.

It's not illegal to carry a weapon on your own property, concealed or otherwise.  Since he obviously couldn't/didn't brandish it, for what reason did the police even show up?

They were called because the workers were alarmed by his behavior and the appearance of a gun in his waistband of his pants/pajama bottoms. The gun turned out to be a tattoo, a mistake was made and was cleared up by law enforcement.

Did you see the picture?

The tattoo could easily be confused with a real gun from a distance and I'm sure that was his intent. He looks like a thoroughly unpleasant individual.

It looks like a real gun if you are blind, or if you have no 3D vision depth perception. This is a ridiculous story, and most certainly a ridiculous tattoo. I agree though, he looks unpleasant and like a balding mobster.

He may be a supremacist; white, black, or purple with yellow polka dots - it doesn't matter. He has the same rights to freedom of speech, expression etc. anyone else does.

 

 

Did I argue he didn't?

    • 25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design

      Nah. They'll milk the current generation in terms of design - controllers, consoles, but no meaningful hardware improvements. This is one reason why people aren't buying Xbox hardware - it's stagnant.
    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS
