the first time i saw the aa12 i wanted one. the semiauto drum shotgun. there’s almost no recoil on it as there’s a huge spring in there absorbing it. the thing - frame - is also made of stainless steel.

Wrapping one’s self in a soap opera is not play, it is childishly retarded.

Then, I, sir, am a PROUD and childish retard.

Entertainment is a part of the human need set -- going back to stone-age man -- whether you find favor with it or not.

If you disagree that this series is entertaining, no worries, that is your opinion. Just wish you wouldn't find the need to try to control ours.

If you don't like that there are entertainment discussions on Free Republic, then you will need to be quite busy. There are threads about football, and baseball, and participatory sports, and music of every nature, and even other television shows and movies. Don't take it personally, we aren't trying to annoy you.

I take it you do not appreciate fiction in literature, poetry and so forth.

I see no practical use for it. A shotgun is a very short-range firearm.

yes but you stay on target and have much better control, plus it’s’fast and the drums can hold 20-25 rounds without reloading. military has some rounds they can fire we can’t get that make it more devastating.

I think it all started to degenerate when Pinkman was stealing the meth and dealing it on the side. Then Gus’ dealers shot that kid who was Pinkman’s girlfriend’s little brother, and Walt killed the dealers and then used his leverage with Gus to protect Pinkman.

Right after that, Gus agreed to let Walt live as long as Gus got to pick his new assistant, and he brought Gale back to steal Walt’s formula so he could get rid of him.

Jesse is an arrested state of development, with several faults including the two you name, I’m thinking around ten or eleven years old emotionally. Whatever the reasons may be, this is not evil in a child, but in an adult his type of selfishness and “what have you done for me lately” is a pathology.

I will give you that.

His decision not to lie about attacking Jesse is one of the few times we really see any nobility in his character. Most of the time he is mean-spirited, venial, and borderline abusive.

Although I agree the teary phone call could be bait, and they may escape yet. But, to actually believe Hank could survive as exposed as he was at the start of gunfire, disbelief has got to be not just “suspended,” but hung, drawn and quartered.

I don't think he'll die in this shootout. But I don't believe his relationship with Jesse is set in its final resting place, even now.

possibly. another guy suggested jesse may drive walt’s car away with or without hank and gomez. if they get mowed down he may just drive off, if they are alive he may drive the car behind the suburban and get gomez/hank in and drive off. one or both may be injured by then..
