Patrick Neary Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Showing again how much free time I've had this week...I dunno if this is true, but it's kind of funny (from an aviation newsgroup): Last month a Hollywood producer was detained for several hours for honestly answering a TSA screeners question as to his purpose for visiting. The answer to the question: "I'm here to shoot a pilot." :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Collier Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Ooooooh, I guess it was just a matter of time before that happened. I can't imagine thinking too hard on that before saying it. Seems like the sort of thing that rolls off your tounge without thinking. I have had people assume I was out at a range when I say 'Im out shooting'.

Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted June 16, 2007 Premium Member Share Posted June 16, 2007 I have recently been having this issue with various people in the Royal Air Force, with whom I've been negotiating shooting permissions. Sorry, filming permissions. They much prefer the word "filming". Shooting, to them, involves high velocity, laser-guided warheads. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lana Loukota Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 :P Haha!!! In the movie I'm making, we're using lots of prop guns. I'm also a camera person... So my family asks me why I have six guns (including a full-scale M-16 replica) in my car, and I replied, I have to shoot "the gang" today... I'm just glad I didn't get pulled over that day... :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
