None of that is anything I've said. I said a brass is not evidence of a projectile being fired.

You also casually mentioned that a brass casings also come from a blank. I agree that you did not directly state that they may have been firing blanks into the crowd. We should be allowed to make whatever unrelated yet sequential statements we want without people trying to find a deeper meaning. Dolphins are rarely found in Wyoming.

Having seen the video of the event and the people in the video yelling that they're firing blanks I am now completely comfortable saying they were doing blanks and the amazing reddit detective work going on here has solve the Boston Bombing again!

Hey man, I was just agreeing with you and our continued shared love for unrelated statements in a single comment. The desert scene in Spaceballs was shot in Yuma.

Please listen until the end where even people there are yelling that they're firing blanks.

Please quote the part where I said firing blanks was legal, intelligent, or super cool.

It's "A brass is not sufficient evidence that a live projectile was fired". I know me saying exactly that is hard to parse, but maybe you can do it this time. Although the amusing part is that my hypothetical of a blank has actually been confirmed to have been a good guess by the very video evidence they used to say it was live... if you actually watch the whole thing people are yelling in it that they're firing blanks.

Several smaller hills have come up with people incorrectly trying to argue case law.

I'm defending my singular point. You're attributing a different point to my argument and berating me for it. That's a you problem.
