Feel Good Ignorance
08.29.07
So I opened up a flickr account for the Friends of NRA committee that I’m on. I’m planning on using a WP plugin to display the albums on the committee website. I decided to search flickr for any other Friends of NRA photos out there, and immediately stumbled upon this guy’s emotional reaction to the shootings at Virgina Tech. Once I read his whiny rant, I couldn’t help myself. I had to respond.
You’ll have to start off by viewing his “excellent” photo of him crying, and his big long rant of sheer stupidity. Then check the first comment by lakecountry.friends.of.nra (me). I actually respond first to the ridiculous comment above mine.
Well… my response was enough to make him cry all over again, and post a photo just for me! I’m so proud. 
That guys needs to take a Valium and calm down a little bit.
# August 29th, 2007 at 10:44 pmAlas I could not help but add my worthless 2 cents….
The following was my own lil rant on the subject:
Poor Scotty. That “brave dude” with 2 photos in his photo stream is just someone putting something up for an NRA committee….what does his courage have to do with how many photos he has on his Flickr account? Not a damn thing I’d think. But then again, I guess I’m just not “passionate” enough for your liking.
And yes, Elf Queen, let us applaud this man’s courage in the face of confrontation. Despite the fact that he has posted his pictures in an OPEN forum and has obviously left the comments OPEN TO ALL, he has still stood up for his PASSION. What would the world be without men like Scotty here. Well….I guess they’d all be sensible people without the PASSION to do crazy shit….like shoot up schools.
You sit here and cry over your poor harassed selves and your out of control “passions” and scream that everyone should be like you. What about all these turds who shot up these schools? Do you think they were cool, calculating intellectuals? Doubt it. In fact…I’d go as far as saying that they were PASSIONATE folk…..much like yourselves.
So now that I’m finished here, all you “Elven folk” and other misguided and insecure fucks can start talking about my panties and how I must have a crush on this prissy lil man because I commented on his picture.
But remember this: While your posting your sad little comments about extremely pointless and mundane shit…some of us are actually doing things in this life that make a difference…not just sitting here at a computer complaining that someone hurt your feelings on “teh inter-webz”. Have fun, ladies.

# August 30th, 2007 at 4:58 amSo is dropping the “F Bomb” in Flickr cause for getting your account banned?
Just curious here…heh heh
# August 30th, 2007 at 5:41 amI f***ing hope not.
# August 30th, 2007 at 8:35 amit’s not. i just couldn’t help but laugh. i mean, i aint gonna lie, i use effing too, but purely in a comedic fashion.
meanin, i know what a moron i sound like when i say “effing”, but thats because im trying to sound like a moron when i say it.
i just like how his posse resorted to suggesting we’re queer, and milita types, and how he suggested that because you had an angry comment on the inter-webz, that you would probably go kill people with your guns.
# August 30th, 2007 at 9:22 amP.S. - regarding Elf Queen… scary. as. hell.
# August 30th, 2007 at 10:23 amThe dude’s kinda got his head in the clouds. “I’ve always thought Flickr could change the world” he says….lol. Since the beginning of humanity there has been violence and war and now at such a time as this behold a photo sharing website is about to change it all! LOL.
I couldn’t see your comment Chad, Your link didn’t work and I scrolled through the comments and didn’t see ya. Maybe he deleted it?
# August 30th, 2007 at 3:32 pmand Chad why did you have to go there with the Elf Queen pic…ahhhh! She’s gunna haunt me for days now.
# August 30th, 2007 at 3:34 pmcrud… what a whiny little girl. i totally apologized and asked for an honest debate. I presented him with a situation where if he were a law abiding, licensed and trained gun owner, and he could have saved lives by being at Virgina Tech, would he not choose to send a slug downrange, and save as many lives as possible.
Apparantly, he couldn’t handle the pressure or logic, and had to delete em. thats too bad. now i wish i woulda copied them here on the site.
I just want to frame this magical picture he took just for me. I can hear his whiny voice in my head “Naughty Naughty Naughty”
# August 30th, 2007 at 4:26 pmThis guy is seriously a puss… and I don’t throw that term around lightly. If I caught myself taking self portraits of me weeping like a little school girl, I would kick my own ass instead of waitin for someone else to do it. I would go straight “Fight Club” on myself. I would probably do the same if I caught myself riding a moped as well.
# August 30th, 2007 at 5:01 pmHow about a caption contest…
Here are my entries:
“Scott working out the problem of “time delay shots”- take 12″
“Scott explaining how the stick got stuck where it is.”
“How many testicles was that again?”
“Girls that like him… including his mom.”
“I didn’t know Scott was a proctologist.”
# August 30th, 2007 at 5:04 pmI know… I can’t resist butt jokes.
# August 30th, 2007 at 5:05 pm“Instead of a gun, I point my index finger at the bad guys. Then I make gunshot sounds, “bang bang! That’s right, I’m a gangsta.”
# August 30th, 2007 at 5:28 pmhaha. the time delay shots is great, and the testicle count was pretty good too.
the time delay was exactly what i was thinkin when i first saw it.
i said to myself… “i wonder how long it took this bag of douche to get the perfect shot.”

# August 30th, 2007 at 5:34 pm“Scott telling Chad that if Chad ever talks to him like that again, well, he will be really mad and stuff. He might even say a few dirty words and stomp his foot on the ground in a real authoritative manner. Then he might piss his silky womens undergarments that he enjoys wearing under his Levi’s and then head down to the Pink Flamingo for a Apple Martini.”
# August 30th, 2007 at 5:43 pmDoesnt this guy look British?
# August 30th, 2007 at 5:47 pmrefined caption: “Scott was that one proctologist who never wore gloves on the job”
# August 30th, 2007 at 5:47 pmThere is not any one on this worldy wide web that is as cool as Chad and JJ.
I’m surprised to be the first to point this out… but the dude has a striking resemblence to Billy Clinton… That finger up, acting all presidential and stuff…. Can’t you hear it? “I didn’t have sexual relations with that woman!” Believe me or I may cry.
# August 30th, 2007 at 6:27 pmI posted a comment on that nit-wit’s sight and now the image is gone…I guess he didn’t like people voicing opinions that were contrary to his… Oh, well… I’m still packin’
# August 31st, 2007 at 8:36 amAlas… the weaker man has buckled under the pressure. It appears he removed the picture dedicated to me. It makes me a little bit sad, because I never got a chance to save it to my harddrive…
I contacted him through my main flickr account, and said “Can’t you just answer that one question?”
to which he responded “Don’t take this personally. I have too many things of more importance in my life right now than to carry this debate any further. Thanks.”
Hmm… sounds like a cop out to me.
# August 31st, 2007 at 10:17 amIronic that he has time to write pathetic rants against guns and gun owners but doesn’t have time to answer one question. Hmmmm, yep, cop out! In reality he doesn’t care about truth and reason, he only cares about his weak-minded opinions.
# August 31st, 2007 at 1:30 pmYES, he brought the picture back. now i got it saved on my machine. too bad he made the page private tho.
And Guav kinda came in there and laid down the KABOSH on everyone. I was so proud of him. I had little baby tears well up in my eyeballs.
# August 31st, 2007 at 1:42 pmDude, I just countered his Eisenhower quote with a Ghandi quote.
# August 31st, 2007 at 4:45 pmDude, Guav… what do you do all day? Do you have a job? I mean seriously… I would love to open up a debate, but never have the time to invest in that because I am to busy making money… these $100 bills don’t make themselves… someone has to run the printing press.
# August 31st, 2007 at 5:56 pmWell, we had a half-day today and everyone else left at 2pm, but I had to meet some friends flying in for the weekend who were supposed to come in at 4:30 so I just stayed at work and played on the computer. Howevfer, their flight ended up being delayed so I sat there until 8pm … it was kinda lame.
# September 1st, 2007 at 12:02 amOh, and the entire suicide comment I made was already written—I cut/pasted it from a journal entry I made a while ago
# September 1st, 2007 at 12:04 amI am thoroughly upset that I was not able to read Guav’s “KABOSH Application” to the masses. Bummer.
# September 1st, 2007 at 5:06 pmAnd there we have it. Big boy shut it down. I posted about this over at defensivecarry.com, and a few guys joined in the one-sided debate of logic vs dumbassery.
i guess thats what we get for trying to debate a 40 year old dude who photoshops himself into a leprechaun.
# September 2nd, 2007 at 1:54 pmThanks for ruining my fun Chad.
# September 3rd, 2007 at 9:55 amheh… sorry.
# September 3rd, 2007 at 9:56 amWhat a flippin’ homo!
