Maybe people do notice, but the blood resembles the world. On the left we see America on the right Australia, etc....

Weapons cover the world with blood, it seems that the world will spend about $30000 per second on weapons next year, the USA is responsible for about the half.

.

No wonder the world is such a hell for some people, NOBODY GIVES A SHIT ABOUT IT!

He's (still) trying to be a good person, what an idiot !

thats really wiered..about the weapons..also i have heared that a law is not going to be renewed in the us...which allows everybody to own automatic-machine guns..or something like that..that true?

i wonder..

that would be awfull..thought i am non-amerikan (i am from europe/austria) i would be afraid ...thinking that every madman can get his/her hands on an uzi...

oh my god..

 

this picture got a really cruel message

Thanks, for responding, too bad the message doesn't get through to most people, just like in real life. I'm no american either, i'm from the Netherlands.

Pistol,gun,revolver, all the same shit. Haleluja !, I wasn't the one talking about a ban on automatic weapons. The photo is supposed to disgust you, that's what weapons do, so it works quite well. Firearms and safety in one sentence, that's what disgusts me!

And putting someone in jail after someone is killed, that's just too late.

free country, ... I live in the Netherlands, apart from guns that seems to be a freeer country than the USA. I do think that forbidding guns is a solution, to prevent people from killing each other. I know that you cannot make violence disappear, but guns kill people a lot faster than fists or a knive. And what do you need an automatic weapon for, when you're robbed by ten people you can kill'm all ? And why are there speed limits in free countries ?, following your logic everybody should be allowed to drive as fast as you want.

And by the way, a revolver seems to be a type of pistol, but maybe you're wright and this is called a revolver in common language.

I get some of your points. But there is offcourse a big difference between your country and mine. In my country guns have never been legal, keeping it illegal works here. Changing guns from legal to illegal in the USA would be a much bigger problem. In my country most people have never seen a real gun, other than one owned by a policeman.

And we don't need one. Because most criminals don't even have one here. Only the "harder" criminals, but they usualy only shoot each other.

And while guns are being manufactured, guns keep leaking to the Middle East, Afrika, terrorists, etc. Well I still believe that cutting down the guns budget won't do any harm but only good, on longterm, I don't expect that the present situation will change in a day offcourse.

As long as we don't trust each other, shit will keep hapening. And guns are a big sign of distrust. But maybe I'm talking about some illusionairy utopia now, but if we don't believe in such a thing it will surely never be realized.

 

And I'm not saying that guns are directly linked to crimerates, I'm talking about people being killed by weapons.

 

And why is soft-drugs (hash,weed,etc.) illegal in the USA ? People should be able to do what they want ? You know why because there's no money there for big firms or the goverment, while producing guns is good for the economy (of some people at least). Hey, but money is the most important thing in the world!

 

If you ban guns, not only criminals will have guns, but the police and military will as well. There would at least be a lot less guns available to do harm with. When a criminal points a gun at my head, than no gun i have (while i haven't picked it up yet) is going to make a difference, as long as I'm not Lucky Luke, the man who shoots faster than his shadow.

Thanks, for commenting and giving this photo some background.

 

The initial intention was not to focus only on guns but more on weapons/defense in general.

 

But about guns I stick to the point that : "As long as we don't trust each other, shit will keep happening. And guns are a big sign of distrust. But maybe I'm talking about some illusionairy utopia now, but if we don't believe in such a thing it will surely never be realized."

Too many words by a little tomato juice

Chris, the blue cast is the gun and shadow is real distracting here as is the red color. Since it is intended to simulate blood, it should simulate blood. This is way to red. Pump some blue into it.

I have an image with a different meaning (murder) here if interested. It is blood out of a gun but the blood might be just a bit more convincing.

There is also an image in the Picture This groups portfolio from last month that resembled this same idea but with a knife and fork and a commentary on the plight of the forests here

Nice try at conveying a message.

Thanks Dave!

Very original, I do wonder how someone can rate it below average for originality, how many images like this do we see? this sure is more original that any landscape or just about any photos I have seen (well maybe not more original that all, I just haven't seen one like this).

Aesthetics IMO very good, but not enough to put it in excellent category.
