Below is a copy from my own personal livejournal entry. I'm sharing with the opencarry community the tactless "humor" which was shared at Further Confusion. There were many people upset, and I seriously don't see why they allowed the skit to be played in the first place.
This was deleted from the furcon LJgroup. I've posted the video in question below.

The skit was such in poor taste. Idon't find any humor in the video, though I've training and understanding of firearms. Maybe you'll understand how distasteful the sit is after you see a gunshot wound with the person crying for help as their gut in burning from a hot piece of metal. When you're shot, you don't fall instantly. Some people do fall, but the fall is psychological i nature since the person "thinks" the need to fall. A person has enough time to pull out a gun and fire even if shot center of mass.
There is no humor in a gun fight, there is no humor in suicide, there is no humor in death.
I'm disappointed at Further Confusion staff for allowing the skit to be played. I'm disappointed in the person from Furr Happens for having such poor taste and no real imagination. I'm disappointed at everyone who believes the video to be funny, only to make themselves look like immature untrained uneducated morons who themselves can't understand the seriousness of getting shot.
The person who made the skit should apologize.
