I am assuming the reporter can not go in all guns blazing because a child is missing. So the questions wont be that hard hitting :cow: because they wont want to cause offense or distress to the family.

Do you have a link for that? It seems strange to buy the ticket 2 months before the trip, especially if you don't even know if he'll be able to come then. MOO

I don't remember where I read it...I am sorry.

I think I'd be a little intimidated about asking questions with the shotgun on the table. :what:

I am from the U,K so i did not want to get into a gun debate but WTF?


It is beyond creepy to have a interview with somebody and have a gun on the table. Is the reporter a threat to him or is he trying to just be suspicious?!

Well, we were wondering a few threads back about whether or not he owned a gun. Apparently he does. It strikes me as a prop for him to talk about how threatened he feels, literally and figuratively. But, gun arguments aside, he does live in a rural area and lots of his neighbors probably have guns too.

I wonder if the shotgun bothered Melissa Blasius and if she asked him to put it away during the interview?

No idea but it still not appropriate :cow:

just for perspective... and yes, I know, taken in totality... but a gun on the table is not all that odd everywhere in this country.

Mark has a gun at hand?? .. creepy !

I certainly wouldn't have my gun out on the table when a guest came inside. But, I'd bet guns are very common to own in that area. & he may truly be concerned about his safety. I know a lot of people feel anger & even hatred for him right now... and they all have access to his home address.

It's not what I would do, but I guess that's his right.

Well from the outside looking it is i'm afraid . Nobody conducts interviews with guns on table as that is not how one behaves in society cow:

Never in a billion years would this be considered "normal" anywhere with gun control .

A clue pointing to what? Sorry, I just don't know what you think it may mean?

I think that it's a clue about how the reporter felt about the shotgun.
 
  • #1,195
Pfff, I shower every day with my glock on my bathroom sink. Gotta be prepared. After reading some of the things out there with regards to MR, I don't much blame him. At least it wasn't concealed.

I would think the shotgun would make her feel uncomfortable. But then, she states that she stayed for two hours. So I'm not sure how to take it!

He was hardly in danger from the reporter and her cameraman...

I think the gun was there for other reasons (drama, pity, etc.). He should have put the gun out of sight while the reporter and crew was there. MOO

i'm going to respectfully disagree. i have nearly twenty years information technology experience including installation and maintenance of cellular communications equipment. if a cell phone is turned off, it does not communicate with anything. the mix up may be that some cell phones (blackberry devices are one) don't actually turn off when you power them off, they go into a sleep mode. it's possible they still communicate but the majority of cellular devices are off when you turn them off and they in no way communicate with anything. if you have sources that say otherwise, i'd love to read them.

the reason that you get texts and voicemails when you turn your phone back on is a) text messages are very small packets of data that are queued by your cell provider. when you turn your phone on it transmits to the nearest cell tower that it's ready to receive and the tower sends any queued data which only takes two or three seconds and b) other than iphones your voicemails are stored on your cell provider's servers. you only get notification that you have a voicemail (again a small data packet). this is why on iphones when you turn it back on sometimes you get notification of a voicemail ten minutes later (it downloads the whole thing before sending you a notification).
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience, masootz.

So, based upon the above described would it be possible that if a friend sent a text message from their cell phone that shows it was sent to Dylan's phone at 9:27pm..with Dylan's phone AT THAT TIME possibly traveling through or at a location where the cell was temporarily unable to connect with the one cell tower that's in/around that particular area.. therefor Dylan's phone would be unable to immediately receive the text that was sent from his friend @9:27pm..and then 10 mins later at 9:37pm Dylan's phone travels to or is at a location that is once again able to connect with that cell tower therefor the text that was sent from friends phone at 9:27pm would be delivered to Dylan's cell phone at 9:37pm Which is the time in which his cell is able to again make contact with tower?

Hopefully I made that atleast clear enough to be able to answer.. would this be how this text sent time vs delivered time would work in relation to the cell being temporarily unable to connect with tower therefor delaying the delivery time of the text to his phone?..

TIA..and again thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience, masootz:)
