I just hope nobody gets killed because of these.

Reminds me of the GUMP from SMT: Soul Hackers

this thread derailed in the best way but honestly, the concept is funny enought that I would be willing to buy one of these if I had seen it at a store, but since they arent like orange or pink or something I wouldnt feel comfortable using it anywhere outside of my own house.

Holy shit, the most try Harding thing to happen. Why would you possibly even think this is remotely a good idea to have a 'gun' phone holster, this is really asking for someone to get shot and its a downright moronic thing to even think or have. I can see it now... "Boy oh Boy! I just got this really cool looking gun phone case, I cant wait to show it to my friend at his work!" - Person proceeds to go show it at friends work / passerby pedestrian see's it and calls cops an the guy shits himself an gets shot.

[QUOTE=Snickerdoodle;48099316]tbh if you buy this for the sole purpose of confusing people then you deserve anything that happens to you because of it. And let's be honest, there's no other reason to buy it other than to mislead others.[/QUOTE] Someone deserves to get shot because they purchased a cell phone case? Holy shit. I sure hope you won't ever be put in charge of anything more than flipping burgers.

He is not advocating going around and killing people with these for no other reason than having this. He is saying that if it is misinterpreted as a gun and you get in trouble for it in some way or another, you should be considered as at fault as someone who was carrying a real gun.

People put their phones in their back pocket? Sitting on it isn't uncomfortable?

Got so much student love from that wondrous umbrella. I wonder if I can find one of these at a local mall or some odd retailer? Hopefully to get one with a Katana and one with an Irish sword handle. [QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;48108664]People put their phones in their back pocket?

Edit: On topic, like that one guy said: Not only it's putting you in danger for looking like a gun, but once people realize that it's a fake, it puts a big bold sign on your @ss saying "STEAL ME!"

[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;48108664]People put their phones in their back pocket? Sitting on it isn't uncomfortable?[/QUOTE] I don't know how people do that. Best way to break your phone or get it stolen.

[QUOTE=ScumBunny;48115104]Holy shit a SPAS umbrella :rock:[/QUOTE] This thread has turned into a "Who can find an umbrella with the biggest fucking weapon" contest I'm not even mad about it either But back to the topic, can people be really this fucking stupid? Why is the company even producing a product like that? I can understand a phone case that would say "Fuck you bitches!" or a shirt with some vulgar stuff on it, (because not everyone is in school and get in trouble for it) but no matter where you go this is going to be a problem

I guess people just develop a weird connection to their device where they want to dress it up in something big and ridiculous. Also, girls usually carry their phone in their bag/purse rather than their pocket, some large dumb cases are more, well, I don't want to say "practical" but, you know. Possible.
