Okay, who caught the problem?
Hint:
The ejecting of a live round after he was playing with it and pointing it all over...

Big ol' bucket of crazy right there...

strangelittleman · « **Reply #2 on:** July 25, 2014, 08:00:09 pm »

I think he's on something....or needs to be. Weird nervous laugh...He's a time bomb.
I really don't think he realized it was loaded, for the briefest of moments after the round popped out the top, he had a scared "O' s___" look on his face, then he recovered pretty well and played it off ok. Not somebody I want around me.
Of course he has the usual dime store tough guy costume jewelry on; shaved head, ridiculous, long scraggly gotee and tee- shirt w/ BS tactical whatever printed on it. That guy is a walking cliché of dime store tough guys.

Ah yes. The tactical version of TapOut shirts. I'm surprised it's not a v-neck.

Unfortunately, I can't watch the video. My Firefox security settings are such that they block that level of doucheyness.

Your two nephews, the ones you call "Tha' Turdz", already bust on guys like Yeager. They'll say in a fake tiny voice "Eww daddy a scaywee man is coming this way..." Your little protege' Matty (aka strangelittleman part deux) even said "Hey goat butt!" to one such in Walmart last year. Of course I fired him up but laughed afterwards.

Yeager is the guy you leave behind to watch the horses. He is serious need of some kinda pill, shock treatment, waterboarding, etc. He's crazy but not in a cool, adorable Murdock from A Team kinda way

Well, you certainly don't let him drive.

Too soon?

Just what I was thinking. And I wouldn't trust him to hold my horse.

Pro tip: Whatever Yeager says or does, say or do the opposite.

That was funny.
Dude is like a comedy of what not to be like.

Occasionally the guy gets rational and says something I can agree with...but other times....

I love picking on the (few remaining) Yeager fanboys.

he's a walking disaster waiting to happen.

I would go even further, and say most of the time, about most things.

BUT...

Those 'other' times will not allow me, in good conscience, to take a class from him. It's just too much of a risk, both during and after. 'After,' you say? Yes. Imagine how the media would have played it up, had (fellow attention whore) George Zimmerman trained with Yeager before his (first) incident...

And I specifically agree with Yeager on lever guns for defense, where he says "I would not tell a person to buy one, but..." and then goes on to say how they are perfectly serviceable weapons. That has long been my position on them: They work just fine, but better, more modern options exist. If I am having to use a rifle of any sort for my defense, (not a ccw handgun, or a HD shotgun) then the s*** has truly hit the fan, and I want the most effective, most modern weapon possible.

Yeah I can't believe he was actually called to be a "professional" witness for a self defense shooting. I was surprised the guy didn't go to jail except the guy involved had also taken a class from Massad Ayoob and Ayoob was also there as a Professional witness.

Panhead Bill · « **Reply #16 on:** July 27, 2014, 06:42:44 am »

Yeager was an expert witness??!! That's scary. If he hadn't had Mas there too, I'd say borderline malpractice for a defense lawyer to call him as an expert. Prosecution would have a field day with him.

That's the whole reason you take a MAG-40 class. You get to call on Ayoob if you get in trouble - from a clean shoot.

Coronach · « **Reply #18 on:** July 27, 2014, 05:23:14 pm »

If I ever shot someone, Yeager is about the last person I would want talking to the jury about my shooting. The man just oozes crazy.

Seriously, how long until he either snaps and shoots someone, or something terrible happens at one of his classes? Imagine the field day the anti gunners will have with that. Media freakin' circus.

It's just a matter of time. Either that or he goes to Columbia to train people.

Columbia? Not so sure I get that one

. assuming it was a joke.

Coronach · « **Reply #21 on:** July 27, 2014, 09:07:16 pm »

Not sure if I get the exact reference, if there is one, but I imagine it is some flavor of standards and safety procedures in some countries (Colombia being one, I'm sure) are not as strict and exacting as they are in America and Europe. His brand of crazy would fit right in.

There have been people trying to recruit US firearm trainers to teach in Colombia and similar places. They tend to be pretty tight lipped about exactly who the students would be.

strangelittleman · « **Reply #23 on:** July 27, 2014, 11:49:31 pm »

Perhaps it's in reference to the various s___ birds from the US, Germany, Israel, UK and other nations that have, in the past, been caught training FARC and other Colombian terror/narco-terror/cartel groups.
