Let's review. During a demonstration on gun safety you take a Glock 40, one of the safest guns in the world, prime a round in the chamber, with the SAFETY OFF, and the proceed to shoot yourself in the foot, after uttering the phrase "I'm the only person in this room professional enough to hold a gun", and you think have a right not to become famous?
Sorry.

I wouldn't want to play russian roulette with him.

Okay, two things.

First, if nothing else, one thing is certain. Those kids certainly won't be playing with guns any time soon. So in that sense, very effective demonstration.

Second, I almost fell off my chair laughing when I read "Paige, who writes that he was 'once regarded as one of the best undercover agents, if not the best, in the DEA,' points to the clip's recent airing on popular television shows and via the Internet as the reason he can no longer work undercover. He also notes that he is no longer 'permitted or able to give educational motivational speeches and presentations.'" Someone aught to tell Mr. Gun-Totin' Proffessional that governments releasing video tapes don't kill people's careers; people who shoot themselves in the foot kill people's careers.

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS!
