He made a mistake/slip, and you shouldn't judge him on that.

It would be equivalent to if I were to call you a dumbass for making a typo.

Well, it's also a dumb quote because he's saying gay marriage is wrong. . I'm not gay myself but I know a few gay kids in my school who get a lot of shit their way, so I support gay marriage.

Like I said, I don't want to cause bad arguments here, so lets end it at that.

Well it's dumb in your opinion, not mine -I'm firmly against gay marriage even though I know some homosexuals. (though I am not going to go into why I'm against it because it could start an argument)
I think it would be good that no politics with the exception of Gun Control be discussed here.

Agreed, I'm already tempted to argue.

Didn't the Goven-ator sign a ban on .50 BMG rifles, not because they were used in crimes, but rather because they look "scary"?

I think it was more due to listening to idiots who think a .50 rifle can flip over a railway car. And the railway car might be full of NUCLEAR MATERIAL!

I love how in Navy SEALs Bill Paxton uses a .50 cal and anything he shoots is either launched through the air or a big gaping hole is left in its place. They make the thing look like a super cannon.

I remember one person defended that you could shoot down planes with a .50 caliber and civilians shouldn't have that ability.

1)Who's fucking dumb and crazy enough to take shots at a plane? You didn't spend $2,000 on this single shot just to go to prison.
2)You try and hit a moving plane 100s to 1000s of feet in the air, moving from 200-500mph and see if you hit it. Most marksmen wouldn't be able to ever accomplish such a shot.

People who actually piss away enough money to buy a .50 cal are more than likely going to be responsible with it. And as we all know, the bastardous criminals aren't affected by such bans at all, and will continue to reek havac with such weapons ban or not.

Is it possible that it was actually a joke, and he meant "gay" as in "happy"? Admittedly, Arnie's never struck me as a guy whose command of the English language (or intelligence) would allow him to think up such subtleties, but it's something to consider.

Using "gay" to refer to "happy" isn't really a common expression anymore (it's more old english IMO), and like you said, Arnie is really the most eloquent person out there when it comes to the English language. But it could maybe, possibly be possible.

More than likely it was a Freudian Slip, since he was talking about gay marriage in the first place. It's not a big deal though.

Back on topic again, I may have to consider Predator as a top one on the list, since the clearing of the forrest likely took more than one take and easily 1000s of rounds were fired in each take. (God knows how many times that Minigun backpack was reloaded, since in reality it went empty every five seconds)

Dunno about blanks and the definition of "actors" (holders of a Screen Actors Guild card?).....But real ammo has to be the cast of Myth Busters.
