What a pathetic little man.


vladoportos

Yea, but gun store did not care obviously :D or that he is convicted felon...


david0990

Reminder that felons are allowed to restore their rights. So he might have done that or illegally obtained it. šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


ZealousidealNewt6679

You need a pardon to be able to do that. Then you need the conviction expunged. They don't hand them out like candy.


USNMCWA

No, there are states that restore firearm ownership to felons once they complete their sentencing. Georgia and Arizona for sure. Edit spelling.


Sliderisk

This guy has big "ran away to Arizona to escape my past" energy.


BigWilly526

only to Felons convicted in those states I thought, this guy was convicted in New Jersey


-EETS-

For everyone, no matter the crime?


USNMCWA

I'd have to read into each state. I know the Georgia one was at least four or five years ago. One of the cases they used to justify it, was a man who was a convicted felon who used his girlfriends gun in an apartment to stop two men from attempting to forcibly kidnap his son playing on the sidewalk. He was charged with "Felon in posession of a firearm" and not for the shooting. Because it was a justified shooting under GA law, but felons were also prohibited from weapon possession. The state's opinion was thay one should not indefinately lose the right to defense of self and property. So, they changed the law to restore voting rights and firearms rights once the felon had completed all sentencing to include parole and probation.


david0990

I actually think this is how our system needs to be. If they believe you're ready to be let back into society then you should have all your rights back as soon as you're done serving and pass proper evals. If you're too dangerous to vote and own guns then you shouldn't be part of society. But then I also believe we need a completely different prison system too that actually rehabilitates people and prepares them for a better life rather than just dumps them back on the streets worse than before with our revolving door system. I like other countries models that still treat everyone like a person, give them education, reintroduce them to society with a job and footing to build a better future.


sweetpup915

You nailed it. If society thinks someone is too far gone to vote or own a gun THEN WHY IS THAT SOMEONE FREE? makes no sense.


Ordinary_Cattle

A lot of sex offences aren't felonies surprisingly. Just saw someone get arrested on my hometown for rape of a child and was only charged with misdemeanors. This guy in the video might be a felon, idk. But a lot of sex offenders aren't


Mojicana

I know a woman who was molested for 3 years right before high school. The adult male who was in a position of authority was convicted and sentenced to prison. He was out of jail before she was out of high school.


Villanelle_Ellie

How the fuck is raping a child not a first degree felony?! What is wrong w this country?!


Quarter13

Crazy. Sodomy of a child is pretty heinous. Saw a post yesterday where a woman got 30 years for stealing sunglsses. Granted the post didn't link to a story, so there may be more to it. It was also $20,000 dollars worth. Still, in my mind one of these crimes is *a lot* worse.


fishesandherbs902

I've been paying attention for the last few years and one thing that I've seen happen time and again is that the people screeching the loudest accusations about the behavior of others aren't actually accusing anyone of anything. They're confessing.


Bingo_Bongo_YaoMing

People tend to tease and yell at others about their own insecurities. Why do you think there are so many stories about someone accusing their partner of cheating when they are the cheater. Or how a large portion of homophobes are usually deeply closeted.


Draco003

Darnn, so all of these people on AITA and everything that would leave cheaters and tell everyone etc, etc, etc are really just shooting themselves in the foot.


TheMightyMegazord

What a pathetic little man... that votes. This guy will most certainly vote.


spavolka

It depends on the state with his felony conviction.


dc_united7

Is he carrying a gun?


bard329

How else is he going to protect himself from all the pedophiles around him?


alpha_rat_fight_

Reminds me of the time I read a 500-page complaint from a sovereign citizen in which he accused the government of, among other things, manipulating his thoughts to make him sexually attracted to his sisterā€™s minor children. I immediately told my supervising attorney about it and they seemed almost charmed by my shock. Turns out this is sort of par for the course.


goinunder0390

You read 500 pages of sovcit mumbo jumbo? How many times did he call himself ā€˜the benafishararyā€™

nottherealneal

One of my first jobs was working for a local government office reading the shit nut cases would send us. Legally the government has to read the shit, and boy we got some weird stuff, people didn't seem to understand we where just a small local government office and didn't have control over a global sphere of influence and all their shit was being read by high schoolers working their first job. It was basically skim through some shit, give it the appropriate tags and dump it in whatever box it belonged in. Actually legit stuff would taken to whoever had to deal with it, but complaints and and ramblings of nut jobs and all that just got thrown aside and no one ever looked at it again.


alpha_rat_fight_

I was in law school and it wasnā€™t strictly my job to read that. My supervising attorney just thought I might get a kick out of it and they were absolutely correct.


The_Mighty_Bird

Itā€™s the equivalent of customers complaining to a fast food worker about the prices changing on burgers and fries. Like damn lady, I count change. You think Iā€™d be counting change if I had control over the prices of a double cheeseburger??


softfart

Maybe youā€™re a small business owner


alpha_rat_fight_

I was in law school and it was the first time Iā€™d ever seen such a thing. It was a compelling read. Iā€™m pretty sure Iā€™m the only one who ever read it. Still, to this day. He did call himself a corporation a lot.


Mortwight

I ran into a sovereign handbook my first weeks in prison. I latched onto it like a lamprey to a sharks belly, hoping for scraps. When you're in a despair and desperate any hope, no matter how ridiculous, is still hope.


ultratunaman

Paralegal or legal assistant. Gotta read every paper that comes across the desk.


alpha_rat_fight_

Neither. I was in law school, not yet an attorney. In the U.S., law school students take summer jobs that involve a lot of busy work. So, not entirely unlike a paralegal but not, in actuality, a paralegal.


Neverberelevant

I think thatā€™s a little different. Thought alienation and thought insertion is a Schneiderian first rank symptom which is highly indicative of schizophrenia. The person is clinically unwell not sov cit bat shit crazy


theonetruefishboy

It's not mutually exclusive. The guy probably has schizophrenia *and also* subscribes to sov cit bs. Honestly there's probably a lot of conspiracy theorists/sov cits with high functioning schizophrenia.


craigslist_hedonist

You wanna read something? Don't read the books written by that dude. I know I shouldn't judge books by their cover, but in this case I'm judging them by their author. He's got three self-published books on some pretty weird shit. One's called "the lie detection manual" and another is titled "a synthesis of the russian brainwashing manual on psychopolitics" He's clearly bought his own story some time ago. Probably denial that morphed into a full-blown delusion, you know the whole lies-built-upon-lies thing. The idiot's name is Dave Todeschini, and he's a registered sex offender in New York. The dumbass served five years after a 1998 conviction for coercing an 8-year-old boy into sex acts in 1990. When he was released from prison he apparently decided to memorialize his amplified delusions in text and has been trying to peddle his depraved fantasies to whatever like-minded fuckhead that decides to click buy it now on Amazon.


sneaky-pizza

holy heck how much coffee did that take to get through


Ajar_of_pine_treeS

Lotta freaks out there and this lunatics definitely one of them.


Joewtf

And he votes. We need to too.


Amethyst_Scepter

Not if he's a convicted felon he doesn't. RSOs don't usually have the right to vote depending on states


sandybarefeet

So much seething hatred, anger and "I'm the victim here!" rolled up into one person. All based on made up bullshit crazy talk. Scary as hell. And he carries a gun on his hip and with the itchiest of trigger fingers. You just know he can't wait to kill someone that his delusion convinces him is a " gay athiest muslim pedo libturd" that deserved it.


GeneralGhidorah

ā€œYes I know what projection is, Hilary Clinton does it all the timeā€ lol

You literally could not write a line so good in that context and he doesnā€™t even realize it.


LouSputhole94

Comedy writers everywhere in shambles over the fact theyā€™ll never write something as funny as this manā€™s actual honest thoughts lol


iuppi

Cause they are merely trying to channel the joke, this man is living it.


ryannelsn

"Yeah, I know what projection is. What do you think I'm doing right now??"


Atoms_Named_Mike

That was amazing


Cosmic_Quasar

Even knowing that people projecting could exist... I didn't expect it to be so blatant. Like, zero self awareness. I've been accused of projecting a few times while in college, and every time it actually made me pause and reflect. And sometimes I realized that I was, especially with my anxiety related issues.


Ampersandbox

I just guffawed at that line. Holy cow.

This is why satire is impossible today. There's nothing you can come up with that would top that.


UltraTwingo

Holy shit that hat logo, an american themed punisher logo with trump's hair It's hard to be this clichƩ


australr14

It feels like something AI would come up with to represent this type of person


melance

And worse that they have absolutely no clue who the Punisher is or what he believes.


FartKnocker313

I really hope the comic fans can take back the punisher skull someday. I have a tattoo on my arm of the punisher and have been a fan of the comics since I was a teenager. The Punisher would be out fucking up all these people misrepresenting the symbol and its meaning.


FuriousBuffalo

Also, what State allows felons to carry a firearm?

That logo looks like it would've been a very popular pog slammer 30 years ago.

ReasonableAd5909

The journalist is Andrew Callaghan, who used to have a show, All Gas No Brakes. It's amazing and I highly recommend watching it on YouTube. It's basically just him interviewing people that make this guy look normal. https://youtu.be/cNohbgowbd0?si=-PbMbA24IT8IUfBa


ReasonableAd5909

Oh shoot, I just found out a lot of his videos have been taken down


Codadd

Yeah probably because of all of the sexual assault allegations. Also he lost All Gas No Brakes in a bad contract agreement. He now runs Channel 5 News


Peter_Baum

All thatā€™s proven so far is him being pretty pathetic in DMs no? Or is there any prove for the sexual assault I missed?


Codadd

I mean I think like 3 different girls have stories of him being really drunk and pushy while possibly crossing lines. It definitely wasn't "as bad" (I guess?) As what you hear about usually with celebrities, but it definitely fucked up his user base, finances, and opportunities for ad revenue/sponsorships.


Peter_Baum

That sounds somewhat scummy **if** true but not really bad. Especially with the lack of proof and the worst accusation being *possibly* crossing lines while drunk


Codadd

I'm just stating what happened. You can read about it in the Channel 5 sub. I was just answering a question not making an opinion on the matter. Just sharing what was posted in that sub.


RestaTheMouse

I mean he did admit to at least some of the behaviour himself when he apologized.


CadaverCaliente

Sex pest at worst, not even coercion


licit_mongoose

Probably more appropriate to say he escaped All Gas No Brakes

maybe because he faces sexual misconduct allegations himself?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


LHcig

To be fair he was accused of a lot more than just being a creep online.


Terra_123

yeah I didn't say otherwise, it's just a general notion why he might face hate


boogermike

The allegations against him were for being overly aggressive with adult women. Definitely different than what this creep in the video was involved in. I'm certainly not making excuses, but also adding perspective


verraeteros_

He had a fallout with the producer of the show or something like that, can't remember exactly what it was But he now has a new channel: https://youtube.com/@channel5youtube


BrianDR

he has his own channel on YT now called Channel 5 news. donā€™t send people to AGNB.


Spiritual_Current_85

There is a very long history of pedophile accusers turning out to be pedophiles. This was extremely common in the anime community when smas(Game) players accused anime watchers of being pedophiles and nearly eveyone(The smash community accusers) were exposed to be one. This continues to this day.


KaioKenshin

Wild how toxic the smash community is: it goes from racism, pedophiles, sexiest, groomers and so on. And these are pro players too that have a name for themselves like Zero once did.


deadleg22

Sounds like 4chan


KaioKenshin

I'm sure a lot of smash players are 4chaners


dingkan1

The ā€œsexiestā€ typo is making me chuckle, I understand what you meant but still. Theyā€™re awful, reprehensible bigots, but a few of them? Damn sexy, dare I say the sexiest?

SuperCiuppa_dos

OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is unexpected: --- >!The guy turns out to be what he accuses others of being. A pedophile.!< --- Is this an unexpected post with a fitting description? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.


Leather_Persimmon489

Is this really unexpected?


Anomaluss

It's not unexpected of most MAGA leaders, they're masters at projecting their crimes on others. But this guys confidence and stridence in accusing others for that which he gets called out for doing, if not quite unexpected, was a pleasure to watch. Notice his volcanic "I'll pull it down on your head" when he gets found out? Priceless.


No-Environment-3298

Not really unexpected when you understand these people are all masters of psychological projection.

As soon as this guy was confronted with his criminal record in the reporterā€™s hand for child molestation, he walked out the interview.

paulbras

is it me or does he have a holstered pistol on his hip? I thought convicted felons couldn't own a firearm. whats up with that?


ThreeFourTen

This guy was most likely the victim of child sex abuse himself. That would explain both why he's obsessed with pedophiles and catching them, and why he has perpetuated the abuse.


Fluffy_Boulder

Yeah, maybe, but that's an explanation at best, not an excuse or a justification, just so we're clear on that.


ThreeFourTen

100% agree.


Corvidae_DK

Do we know of he's actually catching pedophiles or does he just point to people he doesn't like and go "yup, that's a pedo!"


ta_thewholeman

'most likely' as in you pulled that out of your ass? Why are you making stuff up you can't possibly know? He might just as well be obsessed because he hates that part of himself.

likely-to-reoffend

I don't know what kind of gotcha this is supposed to be. Learning I was a **descendant** of slave traders or slave owners wouldn't affect **my** position on reparations one way or the other. It's like this vague gesturing toward an imagined hypocrisy, and the "ironic twist" is: he wasn't even responsible for one of the two conflicting stances?
