It's also very telling that they only perform such stunts/pranks in "safe" locations (where such actions could be argued away as a prank/joke).

Try doing that in South London; somewhere like Brixton - they won't just get the one shot/stab in return. You start something (don't back away when warned and looking like you're making them a mark), you better hope you can finish it, because if you won't the other one will.

Isn't Brixton a hipster place now? So you're more likely to get a tattoo and lose your socks than you are to get shot?
 
You'd have to be a nutter to even attempt this in America, can't believe how far kids will go for clout these days. It's too bad that scrote who went into peoples houses didn't get the same treatment.

Instead we just put more laws and restrictions in that only punish law abiding citizens and empower criminals even further.

I do agree that we are far too much of a nanny state these days. Oddly, it's the Conservatives that seem to be worse at this.

I can't even buy a knife these days without a birth certificate. It's almost impossible to buy Stanley blades online. Decent acid cleaners have almost disappeared. Paint stripper doesn't work any more.
So many of these laws have been introduced without any research as to whether they will be effective. It really is obvious that you can't stop kids getting knives.

It's typical politicians. They band-aid a situation without any understanding of that situation.

The online safety bill is another example."Oh, save the children".... and compromise everyone's privacy in the process.

Leeroy "Oi, Nathan, here is the plan right, you watch that cash machine, and when someone goes up to it, put a knife to their throat, make them put their pin in and draw out as much cash as they can, they give you hassle, you off them, got it?"
Nathan "Yeah good plan, boss"
Nathan "Boss, just searched on Ebay, cant seem to find any stanley knifes, what are we gonna do?"
Leeroy "God damn laws, guess the goverment has us beat though, lets just stay at home instead and have a cup of tea."
Nathan "good idea, boss"

You're surprised that the current lot want to take away your freedom? Where have you been for the last decade?

Sounds like you can't read or have decided to discuss things in a dishonest manner. I don't believe for one instance that was your actual takeaway from my post.

But just so it is clearly written down. I am saying that if you wrecklessly pull out a gun and wave it around, you might make more problems for yourself. Problem that you have decided to ignore based on the fact that you didn't address anything I wrote.

Pulling out a gun and threatening people is a good way to get shot. In this situation, you either commit or don't pull it out.

So pulling a gun out at a perceived threat, pointing it at them and telling them to stay back or I'll shoot is a good way to get shot is it? Now if this guy had done that and the guy had made any movement towards him or looked like he was reaching and this guy had shot him it would never have even made it to court and he wouldn't have spent 5 months in jail. Instead he just pulled and shot in one movement. Due to that choice he could easily of been spending years in jail if the jury hadn't on that day gone his way.

Is shooting someone for that proportional? No, I don't think so.

Do I have sympathy for this prankster getting shot? Nope. I hope it serves as a deterrent to anyone else doing these kind of videos. Using a stranger as the butt of your jokes for clout or money is a disgrace.

Same goes for earlier this week for that Johnny Somali (not his real name, some American) who was arrested in Japan after months of harassing locals, anything from going up to them shouting "Hiroshima, Nagasaki" randomly. Even after getting choked by Yakuza and got knocked out cold by some other caucasian dude he still continued to do it right up until this week when he was arrested for trespassing of all things....as he filmed it.

3 years maximum sentence, deportation coming up as they have the evidence (from him) and Japan has a 99.8% conviction rate.

Wow that doesn't fill me with faith that the Japanese justice system is fair.

now address the post where I expanded upon my original point. Or are you just wasting everyone’s time with a pointless argument.

They only arrest people once they have all the evidence and when they do…you are screwed. They also can hold you 23days without charge, up to 28days with an extension without charge.

And then if they let you go, and then decide to charge you with something else, that’s another 28days…Japanese law is not to be messed around and people in prison do hard labour. It’s not a nice place to be.

It’s very different to western justice system.

What this one

Colonel_Klinck said:
Sounds like you are advocating for shooting people just to be better safe than sorry.

Which do you want to be? The person with the gun drawn and pointing at the perceived threat or the perceived threat with no gun drawn. Everyone should be answering the former.

I'm not sure how that helps your argument. Again if you pull a gun, point it at the threat and tell that threat to stay back or you'll shoot you aren't anymore likely to get shot. You are assuming that someone pulls a gun, waves it around and allows someone to take it off them. That isn't what I wrote in my original post and the reason this case went to trial is because he did what you said he should do which is pull and shoot. If you own a gun you should be trained how to use it and pulling it and firing unless your life is in immediate danger should not be your first choice. But hey that is just me and I really hope you don't own any guns.

You are the one who felt the need to try to correct my first post and then keep this going. So don't accuse me of wasting everyone's time.
