Ed Rob Menard's FOTL Claims

[BazBear]

This boy is one weird bird

As near as I can tell McCormick carried a reproduction .44 caliber cap and ball revolver.

<snip>

I contend that McCormick’s handgun isn’t about self protection, or even a warped sort of lawful resistance to authority .

It’s just another freeman wanting to do as he pleases, where he pleases.

Quick Draw McCormick could legally wear this gun in Arizona (and get laughed at for the useless old gun), but the boy is just too ding dang lazy to move there.

I was wondering why they fired it, now knowing it was a c&b piece it makes sense, for both the reasons you've cited.

He could also legally carry it here in Vermont, openly or concealed. We're a lot closer to him and he was still too lazy to move here.

 

[arayder]

Doesn't this sort of exempt his freemen wannabes?

Yes, this could be the “gateway” membership for freeman wannabe’s too.

But I suspect they'd have to pass muster before Menard would allow them in.

I am really just guessing it was a cap and ball revolver.

But even if it was a reproduction Colt, Remington or Smith and Wesson in .44 cartridge, carrying it is an exercise in egotism that, IMHO, boarders on nuttiness.

These hogs are for Cowboy Action shooting, not carry.

This boy ain’t right.

My cousin's 17 y/o stepson got a .44 replica from his real dad for his birthday last year. I'm glad they came to me before firing it, as they had loaded it without lubing the chamber ends or even patching between ball and powder. They might very well have had a chainfire hand grenade!

It looks like you may have saved him a injury. Nice going!

You can see why the cartridge revolvers just took over in the market place in the 1870’s.

Menard has clearly learned nothing from us:

Spoken like a true psuedo skeptucal sheeple slave who allows himself to be governed without his consent.

Lousy database refusing to contract.

This is the usual freeman “you are wrong because you are a sheeple” argument.

Why don’t do the world a pseudo real favor and consent by signing up for Menard’s plan and then get back to us about how is goes?

 

[ComfySlippers]

Do I have to be a member if I want to be an affiliated Artist?

No, you do not need to be a member of ACCP in order to benefit from being an artist. However, why wouldn’t you want to be a member?

Bolding is mine, again for comedy value.

Are you an Artist?

Let me see... might people not want to be a member because it's another of your awful scams Rob?

 

[Hektor]

How do I get the funds?

Once an artist becomes affiliated with ACCP, they are given an ACCP Artist Card. This Card is pre-loaded with funds once a member selects the artist to contribute to. The artist is then notified by ACCP of such funds and will be given a list of the retailers in their area that accepts ACCP Artist Cards.

Hmmm, I thought the artists were promised cash to the tune of half the monthly fee as chosen by members. I find it implausible to say this but somehow it seems that the artists are getting worthless Menard freemanscript too.

Oh man, I think you've discovered fractal sleaziness! No matter what level you look at, the degree of sleaziness is the same!

By now I suppose we shouldn't be surprised by Menard's ignominy. Note to self: always think the worst of Robert Menard.

I imagine it's like my theory about CTs in general: A sane person cannot come up with an idea so insane that there isn't a real insane person out there who believes it.


Similarly, an honest person will never be able to think as dishonestly as a criminal. No matter how low you go, some criminal will stoop lower.

So it seems that after scrutiny, Menardo is actually taking ALL of the membership "real cash money" and simply exchanging it for worthless and illegal Menard Debit Cards™

If this surprises anyone, then it is a sign that you really need to reconsider signing up for the Association of Canadian Consumer Purchasers. Because in case you haven't been paying attention to any posts in this thread, YOU'VE BEEN SCAMMED.

Damn! Is that why he won't take my A4V for the membership fee?
