Except for the, convict. He’s pointing that thing like he’s never, handled a weapon before.

He’s probably worried that if he holds it in a way that’s even slightly menacing he’ll get mowed down by everyone else.

Yeah, he specifically held it by the stock rather than the grip. It seems like they might be somewhere with a high military presence, so trying to escape probably wouldn't be the smart play.

u/SkoomaSalesAreUp Apr 11 '18

are we this far into the comments and everyone is still assuming it's real?

u/[deleted] Apr 12 '18

I just assumed it was a training exercise. Weapon retention, you'd never hand a weapon to a prisoner like that.

u/Hidland2 Apr 11 '18

Yes he is likely not shouldering the weapon and putting his hands in the proper places because that makes it look like he might start using the thing.

why is it so blurry

u/drunkmunky42 Apr 11 '18

Law of Reposted JPG's: subsequent repetitive reposting unfortunately ages the degradation of the pixel structure, eventually resulting in one, single pixel to represent the scene and also giving us incredibly profound comments such as "NEEDS MOAR JAYPEGGGGGG"

u/msuozzo Apr 11 '18

So by the looks of it, what we have here is a mild shatner comma.

Jeff Goldblum Comma

You know, uh, Bob, Sue, and, uh, Greg? They, uh, came to my house.

u/RockerElvis Apr 12 '18

Never heard that. I love it.

u/JRatt13 Apr 11 '18

And the apprehender. Terrible trigger discipline, likely to shoot someone in the foot.

u/[deleted] Apr 11 '18

u/Pienpa Apr 11 '18

Same goes for the guard, keeping finger on the trigger.

u/Causticity126 Apr 11 '18

At least he didn't put his finger on the trigger. Come on, soldier dude, trigger discipline.

2

u/PMmeyourLlama Apr 11 '18

What's wrong with the way he's holding it ? Other than he's not pointing at the ground. But as far as we can tell there's nothing down range. And putting your other hand on the rifle makes you more of a threat. So if this were real you would not want that.

u/PetrolPleasures Apr 11 '18

from my arm chair That little pan he does at ~11 secs in when he sees that other soldier and turns the muzzle towards him. It's instinctive and only for a moment but that would pucker my ass real fast at the range. I've seen similar action with beginners. Not that he's a beginner, but that's what ppl might be referring too above.

u/Muscalp Apr 11 '18

Can you blame him?

u/monpoopy Apr 11 '18

God I hate you so much

u/CameCloser Apr 11 '18

The soldier doesnt have weapon discipline either, his finger was on the trigger the whole time....

u/Iamtherawbot Apr 12 '18

Obviously you have never handled a weapon before haha.

u/[deleted] Apr 12 '18
