I mean, sure, you can be an elitist to people who aren't into the same stuff you are, or you could just say "shit happens I guess" and move on.

And the only one that could be a remotely valid excuse would be the one implied by going to the farmer's market for munchies delicious organic fruits and vegetables at 4:20, all of the other ones are acting like you know something that you don't, which is really hazardous with guns. If I were the police, I would only want people to tell me what they were sure of with regards to the situation, so the SWAT team doesn't go in expecting a guy to have an uzi, and it turns out that he somehow got his hands on a PKM (I actually have talked to a guy that has a legal example, not sure if it is a dealer sample or not. Big guy, you'd have to be to use that thing standing.)

And I hope you aren't talking about my comment about the media not helping, because it is their job to get details right about things. This isn't about them putting up a stock photo of an AR-15 with a duckbill flash hider rather than a birdcage one, this is something that should be obvious with the least bit of fact-checking.

Melodic:
Right, I get the media thing. I just think you're being banal about something that by all means you take seriously and know a lot about, but that other people might not.

Meh.

Doesn't help that media coverage tends to do the same thing. No, I'm not doing the redneck "LIEberal MSM!" BS, I'm doing the "lazy fucks won't do thirty second's worth of fact checking" thing.

Sad thing about me is that I could probably identify every single one of those properly except for the one on the bottom left =P

To give Bungie developers credit, the UNSC guns in the game do look like something you could custom-make in the 20th century. Also, I think the issue with the "AK-47" thing is a tiny bit facetious, but at the same time it's really a case of "if you don't know don't try to be clever".

Sox:
"Are you sure it was an AK-47?"
"...yes! Definitely."

I refuse to believe that police aren't trained to ask important questions twice, so here we go again.

"Are you sure it was an AK-47?"
"...fine, maybe, I dunno..."

Theriandros:
This is one of those times where the caller really should just say "a really big fucking gun".

Though it does resemble an HK PSG1...
