Is that a knock on Wallstrip’s door? Climbing on the wall, leaping over fences..with 3″ heels..now shooting with the big guys. Could that knock be CSI, Law & Order etc??? Beauty and brains. Wallstrip, she’s a keeper.
It is good to see Lindsay getting some of her frustration (at not meeting me yet) out…there is nothing better to blow off some steam than firing a gun. Patience, Lindsay. Patience.
I learned from an expert on such matters (he was an urban chemical delivery specialist on the side) that it’s “ain’t a pistol whippin’ ‘less you pulls the trigga when you hits …” I don’t know if that guy is still alive, I doubt it, but he had a Pryor-like gift for stand-up comedy and his story about the soap-seller in front of his house was PRICELESS, but I’m not gonna type it …
Too bad the show couldn’t have run with the comment that S&W is the leading maker of hand guns and “while handguns account for only one-third of all firearms owned in the United States, they account for more than two-thirds of all firearm-related deaths each year.” But that would have been an entirely different and slightly less entertaining show!!
Scott - excellent comment but we are trying to keep the video, neutral on stocks and politics and levave the opinions and voice to the comments like yours and the conversations.
The trend is the story and from you rrfacts, that wont be good for handgun deaths and i agree unfortunetely with that
Hear that knock on the door? Seeing Lindsay leap over fences, doing a balancing act on the wall, 3in. heels no less and now shooting with the big boys. Could that knock be CSI, Law & Order. Beauty and brains. You have a winner Wallstrip!
Scott is right. If there were no handguns, 2/3 of the fire-arm related deaths in the US would not have occured. The people involved would have simply sat down at a table and resolved their disputes peacefully.
This could be a great stock show: Correlation vs. Causation
Good stuff. I’ve been a gun owner for close to 20 years, and you get a much different understanding about them from that than from watching the news on TV. (Or from Dirty Harry movies, for that matter). Good to see someone treating the subject with a little maturity.
I have enjoyed Wallstrip every day since the start except while playing golf (sort of) with Linday’s dad in SC last week. All should be grateful that this daughter’s eye pleasing appearence doesn’t come from male side of the family.
Keep up the great work on this very entertaining show.
Andy, methinks you misunderstood Scott’s comment, which was related to ACCIDENTAL deaths by handguns. Your point, which is that handguns are a tool and that people will commit violence with whatever tool is at hand, reminds me of the immortal words of Archie Bunker, who said “would you feel any better if they wuz pushed outta windows?”
Of course, handguns account for more accidental deaths than long guns or rifles do, because: (1) it’s logistically easier to have a hand on the trigger and have the barrel pointed at yourself with a handgun, and (2) because handguns are primarily used for defense and long guns and rifles are primarily used for sport or hunting, handguns are more likely to be kept loaded and accessible. If they weren’t kept loaded and accessible, they wouldn’t be any f*&%#@g good for defense, would they? Nothing inherently political about pointing either of those out.
Scott, keep in mind that the deaths by malpractice per licensed doctor in the U.S. are several orders of magnitude higher than the deaths by accident per handgun. Visiting a house with a loaded handgun in it (provided your intentions are honorable) is safer than visiting a doctor’s office on business.
Hilarious cut in after your host says it’s basically for hunting. I thought I saw a little psychosis while she was shooting. Nothing more scary than a woman with a gun. Er..well, pointing it at me would be more scary.
1. great vlog today
2. AMAZING ad tie-in at the end. I got an ad from GRAND THEFT AUTO VICE CITY STORIES for PSP!!! LOL! Talk about contextual! How’d you manage that? Or is just happy coincidence. (Either way, I’m buying it!)
I loved today’s show so kudos to Wallstrip yet again. There is no doubt that Lindsay Campbell is a beautiful woman and you all are one creative bunch. I have just one small criticism about aethestics. Why is the freeze frame that you use to introduce the show more often than not so unattractive. It may seem like a minor detail, but it is after all your “handshake” with your guests.
Loved watching Lindsay’s different emotional states — apprehension and even a little fear while talking with the gun nuts followed by joyful release (relief?) after pulling the trigger.
Hello from Germany
The comments somehow remind me of the movie “Thank you for smoking”
I have never owned a gun, but I have always been fascinated with weaponry and armor (right now, I am trying to manufacture my own chainmail), mostly for the technology or the horrifying work hours that went into manufacturing antique items (chainmails, for example, where every(!) ring (thats several thousand for a shirt) was closed up with a rivet).
And, to express it the Ferengi way:
War is good for business.

That show had a lot of firepower. I like it when Lindsay shoots straight with the audience. Overall, I’d say this episode was right on target.
