Fake Rocket Launcher Article

[odst26]

i get being arrested for having an unregistered .22 cal and a sliencer, but a charge for having a fake rocket launcher is bs.

if i ever make a whole infantry of halo 3 weapons, im not going through that state.

i agree

yay for texas...we win again. you are not required to register all your guns, only if you buy them from a dealer, but if i buy one from a friend or receive one as a gift.

I honestly don't think you'll have much to worry about in regards to this.
As long as:
1: You're not a felon.
2. You're not on probation.
3. You're not carrying other weapons.
4. You're not concealing them.
5. You don't have drugs and aren't high or drunk.
6. You're not breaking any other laws.
7. You don't try pulling your prop out and/or waving it around at cops or other people/things/animals.

I think we need to consider the circumstances under which this felon, (and as rob posted - drug head) who was carrying other weapons was charged. It's not like this upright good fella' just got pulled over for goin' a little to fast to a convention - got searched and arrested.

you can label #7 as just plain stupid
and im none of those so i have nothing to worry bout
BUT there was a time here where a guy was eating a pear, and the cops have mistaken it as a grenade and unloaded on him...

...not taking any chances

Me too.. but here's the neat impression:

Guy: OM nom nom nom
Cops: Look out! He's biting the pin off a grenade!
Guy: nom... nom..... nom....? Hmm?!
Guy: (thinkin..) "Holy crap! where's the guy with the grenade!" (looks around wildly, then get's up to move)
Cops: Get down! Freeze! Etc!
Guy: (thinking..)"Me!? oh HELL no! some guy's got a grenade up in here!" (Runs wildly towards the police with the pear still in his hand.)

yeah.. you can see where that one leads.

Rob.. THERE's a fun phrase you don't hear every day: "Biological Malfunction"

That's a scary phrase..

speaking of dumb laws, PA is up there with fireworks. We cant buy fireworks in our state, so anytime there is a fireworks stand, we cant use our licenses. BUT, people from out of state can come here and load up on heavy bombs and explosives some people have all the fun.
Im sure if the cop found out the prop was solid and made out of paper, he would laugh. lol give him a handplate or something.

Fireworks are illegal in Georgia, but there are at least 6 shops open year round that sell them just on the other side of the "border" (river), and people buy them there, and shoot them in their own backyards, but no one is ever arrested.
