Fuckin Pussy Ass UCLA Professors

The part of this story that kills me is "Police said no one was hurt and it wasn't known if the firearm was real."

This wusses are quitting thier jobs and throwing a big stink over what may well have been a fake gun? GROW UP! It was a prop in a piece of performance art. If they could say for sure the gun was real and operable, that might be a different matter, but they can't even tell us if it was PLASTIC or not.

Burden did performance art in the 1970s and his best-known performance featured an assistant shooting him in the arm with a .22-caliber rifle.

That was a different performance that was being referenced, not the one at hand. Otherwise,the upset professors at UCLA are about 35 years late in resigning.

What a bunch of little pussies

I think you missed my point. Burden (one of the professors resigning) had himself shot in the arm during one of HIS performance pieces. Now 30 years later, he is resigning because a student used what is not known to be a real or fake weapon in a performance. Sounds a bit silly to me.

Bump for the day crew.

Yeah he's a pussy because a student brought in what has not been determined to be either a real or fake gun...yeah I'm sure you would have just been comfortable sitting there.

Let me relay two incidents to you..both real.
One happened to me another to a friend during high school.

LUnch is over and the drama room fills up and my friend Jeff is sitting in the front row.
Well one of the students walks up to the front of the room and says he has a piece he wants to do his piece on "life." Opens up a bag pulls out a pistol puts it to his head and kills himself in front of the entire clas.
This was Arlington, Texas around 1985, 86.

Now fast forward a number of years later I am managing for Taco Bell and talking to the girl who's working the drive thru. The next customer pulls up and it's a few kids and as she opens the window a gun comes up.
As we are both diving to the ground and I am pushing the panic button...I realize there is the telltale orange piece in the barrel of the gun signifying it's a toy..they got a good laugh.
The police arrived and after explaining what had happened they still arrested him it was a state felony...he pleaded guilty to a lesser charge but the point is....how is anyone to know what the fuck is going on?

The student should have maybe discussed it with the professor first..letting him know his intentions and whether or not it was a real gun or not...then at least there was some comfort in knowing whether or not someone would be harmed.

It's not about being a "liberal," or a conservative...it's about common sense.

You don't bring a gun into a public place fake or not pretending it is real without causing some kind of distress.

Here in Nevada they have an open carry law. I can strap on a belt and a six shooter like inthe old west and walk down the street...however if I cause a disturbance by doing this and scaring people I can still be arrested for that.

Anyway...people just need to use some common sense...stupid fucking UCLA student.

The problem with that argument is two fold.

1. Your example was a suicide, which has no relevance to a performance piece.
2. The professors couldn't even tell the police if the "gun" used was even real or not.

If it was real and operable, then they should have done a LOT more then just whine and quit, they should have stopped him on the middle of his performance and demanded to see the prop. The student was not punished at all, which leads me to believe that it was not an operable gun. In California, bringing a gun onto any school campus will earn you a huge bitch slap by the judicial system. It's a felony, if I remember my California law correctly. So if it was real, a kid brings a gun onto campus, uses it in a performance art piece and then goes home without being arrested, questioned or even stopped by ANYBODY. With all this in mind, I REALLY doubt it was a real gun and if it were, I doubt it was operable (such as the all the guts being removed or the barrel being filled.

There is no problem with my argument only proving the point that who can tell whether a gun is real or not.
If you are sitting there and a guy pulls out a gun real or not and you don't know..puts it up to his head are you going to approach him and demand to know if it's real or not?
I highly doubt it.
I think the reason the professors are quitting is because this kid is not being handled in a manner he should be...and I would probably do the same if I were in their shoes.

You also act as if you know exactly how things played out after the incident...from my reading of the article the police and the DA were involved...just because charges were not brought up does not mean nothign wrong occured..once again the professors are upset at how the school is handling this as well..and using their power to make changes.

Nothing wrong with that.

Jesus dude this is a butt fucking stupid argument...LOL
I just reread your response and it was weak at best.
You say there is a problem with my argument because one was a suicide and one was a performance piece..LOL how was anyone to know what was going to occur once the dumbass pulled the gun out...the kid at Arlington High School started off doing exactly the same thing...saying he was doing a piece on life and then pulled out a gun and killed himself...VERY SIMILAR INCIDENTS.
Anyway I can tell this won't go anywhere because of the "logic," and "reasoning" behind your argument.
I shall proceed to other threads thank you.

If it were a real gun, then why wouldn't charges be brought up? Do you think the police and DA just arbitrarily let people go? Did they just not feel like charging the student?

Also, I'd like to know why a student is performing a piece without the script or props being reviewed by the instructor before hand.

what the hell, it was only a performance. that as if it was a real gun
