Weapon of Choice

Took the time to watch the entire film and I have to say I'm disappointed.Things learned from your documentary,1 There is no objective view,2 I counted two times in the film where the translation was incorrect which seemed deliberate to fit the directors narrative, 3 Never interview criminals that have been found guilty in court,they tend to lie,4 The contempt the director has for the United States would be easier to pick up on if he just spoke it instead of dancing around it,5 The fact the director found a man carrying a glock in one of the most dangerous parts of the world and arranged a interview without fear of harm is puzzling,6 This "documentary "in all,is so full of holes it would make for a great cheese plate,7 Equating a evil person(Saddam) and minority's to a specific gun maker is redundant and lazy, 8 There is one goal I will say the director achieved,if you want a reliable hand gun that doesn't jam or rust?Buy a Glock.

In this "documentary" several convicted criminals, gang members and weapon fanatics are interviewed in a useless attempt to blame the Glock weapon company for everything that is seemingly wrong in this world. Yes even Sadam Hoessein carried a Glock; so what??? What does that has to do with the Glock company? He probably drove a Mercedes-Benz as well?? Totally worthless crap documentary which touches several subjects (poverty, gang violence, 2nd amendment) without coming to any conclusions whatsoever except for the fact that Glock is a bad bad company.

An Austrian argues against 2a. Evidently he has no idea why the populace might need to defend itself against tyranny. An Austrian! I suppose that from a Germanic point of view, the defence against tyranny is an enigma (pun intended). "If only the fuhrer knew! " This kid even flew to Iraq for one shot out of his hotel window because someone erroneously informed him that Chicago is known as Chiraq. It's more commonly called Chicongo. Neither Iraqi nor Congolese citizens have 2a rights to protect them from tyranny. They have tyranny instead. That's what you get without either 2a or Germanic obsequience to authority. The fuhrer was Austrian. He knew. He also knew his subjects would think the best of him because, hey, why would the citizenry believe their masters would practice tyranny? On the positive side, this guy is less of a one eyed polemicist than the odious Michael Moore. That's the best that I can say for this. It's naive rather than cynical communist propaganda.

20 minutes in..I cant even finish it! If you want to watch interviews with rappers, and middle eastern men and continuous rap music in the background then this is for you! This film has nothing to do with GLOCK and sports shooters, military or law enforcement. History of glock etc. I repeat all this talks about is glock, and how its the the number one used firearm in the "streets". Hey film maker, and future film makers! Please interview people who know the difference between a clip and a magazine next time!

You can clearly say that this is one sided. It's obvious that the filmmakers had an agenda. And in general not being pro gun I get the sentiment overall. But there seems to be no other goal than just demonizing Glock and their product. Now if that sounds like your kind of documentary you will probably love this way more than the general audience. The other things is by focusing on the Glock but throwing in so many other things ... it loses its overall focus too. Does it matter what individuals used a Glock? This almost works as a movie for pro gun activists, because they can say: see how crazy anti gun people are? They think they can change something with this ... and maybe that wasn't the aim or goal, but that is just it: we don't really know what this was aiming at (no pun intended)

Whether you're anti-gun or pro gun does not matter, this movie is just done badly! The filmmakers have copied their metods directly from Nazi propaganda movies from the past. The film is about as factual as an ISIS recruiting movie.

I am not particularly pro or anti guns. I do, however, live in Chicago and can assure you that the Glock company is not the problem here. If Glocks did not exist, or just decided to shut down production tomorrow, Smith & Wesson or some other manufacturer would take their place. This "documentary" attempts to convince you that Glock is an evil company and is responsible for all kinds of horrible things. Once you weed your way through all the nonsense and political tripe you are left with the only thing that might be factual in this abomination; Glock seems like a great product. They really do a great job selling you a Glock in this thing. I am not in the market for a gun, but if I were, they make some good points for buying Glock. It has a reputation for being reliable under the worst of conditions. Police, military, gun store owners and gun sales people seem to covet this gun. Even the poor people on the South Side of Chicago pay out the extra cash for the Glock. I found myself surfing the Glock website while this was playing on my TV (I was bored). I like the subcompacts personally. Maybe a G26 or G27? Apparently every criminal and every cop in the city of Chicago seems to have one. I guess I need one too? Long winded, misguided, Glock commercial.
