Yeah. Momo was just telling us about that. She said he wasn't a very bright bulb and might have thought the blank wouldn't hurt him. Mr. Eaton must be beside himself.

OMG!! That's so tragic! Why do they feel the need to use actual guns, and shouldn't they CHECK the barrel and clip before they use it?!?

The gun that they put the blanks in was just for sound, the guns onstage were all fakes. Apparently everyone at school's gonna be wearing black tomorrow in memory. Everyone was told beforehand that shooting it at anyone was forbidden, so we honestly don't know what was going through his head at the time...

I heard about that~! I myself thought that those guns had a bullet...for they were so loud when I heard them pop off...never knew it was pressured air! so strange getting killed by air...Oo But its still sad...

this happened at your school Jovey? your school seems to get all the interesting paper spots.  

[Jovey4]

Yup - it's about to get another though xD
Presenting:

PROJECT ORIGIN!
A night at DHHS where everyone in St. George and surrounding areas can gather at the school for a night of Video Game Tournies (games with T ratings and under that are pre-approved by the school district stressed )
Basically my club is going to host this sometime next year before the school season ends. We're not sure when exactly, but I'll be the host of the brawl room - where we'll be running at least three different Wiis simultaneously.  

[Rhies]

will there be prizes? O.O  

[Jovey4]

I dunno actually xD I haven't heard all the details yet... and I'm the club president! xd

Thats really strange that kid dying from a blank because there is no projectile when a blank goes off... unless someone decided to stick something in the barrel. At that point whatever is in the barrel becomes just like a bullet. How close was the proximity of the gun to him? They say that Brandon Lee died this way from a wad left from the blank shooting out of the barrel... i personally think it was the chinese mafia taking out the rest of the lee family if you ask me but thats a different conversation.  

[Kazu Faiya]

Blanks are usually made of paper and even though it may not seem like that would hurt it is hurlled a very high speeds, not to mention the pressure buildup of hot air behind it. Its enough to do a pretty good amount of damage. It had to have been close proximity for him to shoot himself.

You know what gets me? These new ads on gaia... I used to see an ad for the website gaiacheaters.com and I wanted to report it, so I went to the forum and found out I had to DL an add-on in Firefox. With that done, I was all set to catch their inappropriate hides, but now the ad NEVER shows up. . . .

Seriously, I think they have sensors or something to know when someone will catch them. That or they've already been reported and stopped. stare  

[Jovey4]

That's just what you get for trying to help out - you get smacked in the face for your good deeds. xD All kidding aside, that happened to me a lot so I just tend to ignore it nowadays...  

[Rhies]

Ooooo the new dudes of monster coats!

Anyway I saw you Jovey in the battle against other cosplayers! congrtas on your win!  

[Kazu Faiya]
