Quoted: It's another example of power vs non-power. If you're a popular person with industry connections, voicing your concern about a person in power can easily get you blacklisted and seen as a "trouble maker." It's the same reason why we had people like Weinstein getting away with it for so long. A few actresses spoke up decades ago and were basically blacklisted in the industry. Weinstein was quoted by many people saying "If you say anything, I will destroy you and you'll never work again." So yeah, a smiling face doesn't mean much. View Quote |

All the videos show is a whore doing whore stuff, and a guy acting the way a guy does around a whore doing whore stuff (which is equally trashy).

You just proved my point; discussing, disagreeing and debating 1-6 with extreme prejudice should be allowed anywhere online. GT banned talking about TTI/TB, so no debate allowed, no criticism, no nothing...you actually agree with that View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
Quoted: So your idea of free speech is that someone should be able to do points 1-6 above without any criticism from anyone? Don't we also have free speech and the right to criticize inappropriate behavior? Or apparently you only care about free speech when it applies to creepy guys being creepy? I think it's a retarded move, but it's also their website so... |

Quoted: I said 10, 20 pages ago I thought it was creepy, but since it was meant to be private, I don’t care. People are into all kinds of weird shit, role playing, trash talk etc. Most of it is just part of their “thing” and it’s not meant to representative of their character, they’re just having fun. When I watch that video, I see two people having fun together, that’s it. It’s not my thing, but who am I to judge. Jumping off a bridge...that’s a big leap there my friend (pun intended) I personally have no problem with people doing whatever they want in private that doesn’t negatively impact others. That doesn’t mean I behave the same, I just think it’s their business. They’re both fine and are doing well, albeit, for a little while TB’s business will take a hit. I guess that means some big sales coming our way. As for JS, she appears to be doing well, but like everyone else, I’m not buying that stupid knife... View Quote |

Quoted: So we agree it's creepy. And no, it's not a big leap because in your previous post your argument was essentially "this kind of thing isn't that uncommon" as your defense of it. So, just like parents when they ask about the bridge, the idea is that just because it happens doesn't make it okay. View Quote |

The whole “training her since 16” is in your imagination, like a lot of other claims. Does it really change anything else? It appears as if for the people calling him a creep it's not enough that they just don't like a 48 year old man flirting on video with a 19 year old girl. Somehow because he would demonstrably do that, he must be pedo too. That's how it looks from many comments in this thread. The proven fact that he was her boss seems to have gotten way less exposure. Also that he's not anywhere near the first firearms instructor to get involved with a young female student in an unprofessional relationship seems to escape much criticism. The worst scandals as we know actually involve underage girls, which in this case there is no evidence of. |

Quoted: Nothing like free speech in a free country Our side has unfortunately learned a lot of lessons from the left, that's a shame. More in line with our freedoms would have just been people not talking about him by choice, or ignoring conversations they don't want to be a part of. Sad when we ourselves are empowering our very own Big Brother View Quote |

Ofcourse not. It however seems that the theory of him being in regular contact with her while she was underage and therefore, he must have been fucking a jailbait or “grooming” her for years to come, is the central theme here.

In the video he appears to be flirting and trash talking a young girl. Who cares ?
If he is her boss, and she accepts this type of behavior as acceptable, normal workplace banter, then that is on her. But, let's face the facts. The only reason she is doing what she is doing, and in the position she is in, is due to the fact that she is an extremely attractive female with a rocking body doing shooting videos in bikini tops and skin tight leggings. In the firearms industry, an extremely attractive female with slightly above average skill at shooting is a unicorn. People will pay to watch her videos and come to classes to google over her. This is not to say that she will not be successful. She does seem to have a solid foundation of shooting skills, although nothing remarkable, and her being attractive will open many doors for her that would otherwise stay closed. Bottom line is, honey attracts bees, and behavior such as that in the video can, and often does, lead to trouble. |

Quoted: $5 says the name Precious came from her View Quote I'm not even mad about this. That was two consenting adults having a private conversation. Is he a dumbass for having that kind of relationship with an employee. Oh hell yes. It could come back to bite him in the ass. But I"m not mad because she is a 20 something. I have no doubt she knows how to get her way with men. I have hooked up with a 21 year old in a bar when I was in my mid 40's and she basically asked me to ride with her to get something from her house. We ended up at my house and she wanted to spend the night. Some girls like older men. I have been fortunate enough to have been on the receiving end multiple times. I'm too old now, but for a long time I wasn't. |

Soooooo I would assume with today's culture being what it is he's basically lost all his corporate sponsors and no one in Hollywood will ever work with him again?
In short, his career is over? |

I was told by someone that I trust, that’s in the competition shooting community and is close friends with one of the shooters TTI sponsors, that Taran and Jade were dating at the time of the video, and their romantic relationship was well known in that community of shooters.
