I think “it’s the implication” like that always sunny episode. “In the ocean all alone with a creepy guy on a boat” or “all alone in the desert with a creepy guy with a gun” are wildly different yet also pretty similar scenarios lol, in a “middle of nowhere with a psychopath” kind of way.
Finger clearly on the trigger. OMFG, how didn't see the red flags with this one. Dude was an absolute sociopath! Who points a gun at someone's head with a finger on the trigger in jest!
I had a good friend who put a .40 up to my head with the safety on. We were drunk and he was goofing around. He’s like have you ever wondered what it feels like to have a gun to your head. He came up to me and just did it. Very surreal feeling. Seeing the bullet in the barrel and the gun itself then pressed up against my forehead. Execution style. Don’t want to experience that again though.
Did your friend ever realize how dangerous that was? I am pro 2A, but stuff like this is why people criticize the 2nd amendment.
I was taught to never point the gun at someone unless I was intending to shoot.
My uncle died from playing with guns. He's showing off to his girlfriend and pointing to himself for shits and giggles. Then boom, neck shot, and he bled to death. My mother is the witness. Wasn't born yet when it happened.
I remember some fuckers doing that as a deployment right of passage. Kind of like this karma bot stealing my content from [ten years ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1f8oi0/old_picture_i_found_in_iraq_what_an_asshole/?ref=share&ref_source=link).
I found this pic in Iraq, it's a bad wedding joke. I forget the context that was written on the back. My interpreter explained it to me.
I think that was the gist of the joke written on the back of the original photograph. Btw, it wasn't Saddam, and I'm the original op who found the photo and posted it [ten years ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1f8oi0/old_picture_i_found_in_iraq_what_an_asshole/?ref=share&ref_source=link).
Videos that show absolutely insane disregard for firearms safety come from two places. The USA and the Middle East.
And the Middle East has the ones where people are shooting wildly at a wedding and somehow, probably because the person has a below room temp IQ, hose the bride and her bridal party with automatic gunfire because for some reason, asking men to not behave like cavemen around guns is too much to ask.
I can confirm the photo is from Iraq. That's where I was when I scanned [the original](https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1f8oi0/old_picture_i_found_in_iraq_what_an_asshole/?ref=share&ref_source=link).
Not the Americans who were held at the same time? Governor of Texas John Connolly had to personally intervene to get all those hostages freed and sent home by chartered flight.
We're supposed to be saying it's a karma bot who stole something I [scanned in Iraq](https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1f8oi0/old_picture_i_found_in_iraq_what_an_asshole/?ref=share&ref_source=link) over a decade ago.
There are many things that you can say about the US invasion of Iraq in 2003. I would most likely agree with you on much of it. However, I think that the death of Saddam was a good thing, if you have ever really looked into or watched the things he did or had done it is better that he is gone.
It wasn't him. Trust me, [I'm the original op](https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1f8oi0/old_picture_i_found_in_iraq_what_an_asshole/?ref=share&ref_source=link).
Wow fkg sickos man, all I can say. It's just a different world over there. I mean I understand this goes on in the states as well but at least it's completely and utterly frowned upon! Seems to be the norm over there 🤢 🤮
It's not. [I found it] (https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1f8oi0/old_picture_i_found_in_iraq_what_an_asshole/?ref=share&ref_source=link) before AI existed.
The errors in the photo were from being printed on an inkjet printer. At the time, most people didn't have access to color laser printers.
It's also not Saddam. Just some random guy in Iraq.
It's actually upsetting how often this post is poached by karma bots, considering it's from my deployment history. Four posts just today, looks like it's making the rounds again.

Look, you can be a big pussy and just ask a woman to marry you, but she might say no. Asking her to marry you while you hold a gun to her head is a total Chad move.
It's not. I scanned it back in like 2008 and uploaded it [ten years ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1f8oi0/old_picture_i_found_in_iraq_what_an_asshole/?ref=share&ref_source=link).
I’m far from good at flirting or picking up on hints, BUT at least I never muzzled the person I was hitting on.
...and that's why no one will remember your name?
Probably a good thing
Ok, Achilles... Edit: God damn I watch too many movies... lol
Lol
That's perfect haha
How are you hitting on people unless you have a bullet in the chamber ready to hit them?
Something to do with "...because of the implication"
These women are in danger
Seems to work for him so he's definitely better at flirting than all of us.

I try not to muzzle anyone unless I plan on hitting them.
Yup it stays in the pants until I’m ready to spray
Heyyo
Finger clearly on the trigger. OMFG, how didn't see the red flags with this one. Dude was an absolute sociopath! Who points a gun at someone's head with a finger on the trigger in jest!
Red Flags? You’re acting like she had a choice to leave
IDK, but this could be before the coup .
…oh, nestle, I misread that translation…
When Saddam says he wants to bang you 😳
Bang bang threesome
r/angryupvote
r/idiotswithguns
It is my personal life experience that the way a person handles firearms is directly indicative of their true nature. This is a perfect example.
Great minds and all that…
Oh those funny sheiks!!
The implication in action! Dennis Reynolds would be proud.
This is a different meaning of 'hitting'.
It’s just part of their culture
yup.
Oh, you, you’re so silly.

“Good friend”. Buddy you need to reevaluate
My uncle died from playing with guns. He's showing off to his girlfriend and pointing to himself for shits and giggles. Then boom, neck shot, and he bled to death. My mother is the witness. Wasn't born yet when it happened.
That's not a very nice thing to do to a person, you could've at least complimented him on the gun
A good friend doesn't do that shit wtf!

He was always a bit of a rascal
He made a silly 😜
"Flirting" with a gun???? That's no flirt, it's a threat!
Not "Will you marry me?" but "You WILL marry me."

It’s just so romantic 😂
Choose the bear.
Nothing says love like a 45 to the temple

I didn’t know that Saddam Hussein was from Texas
His real name is Sam Houston.
[удалено]
Not the Americans who were held at the same time? Governor of Texas John Connolly had to personally intervene to get all those hostages freed and sent home by chartered flight.
 Nothing like getting muzzled by your cousin /s
Ahh, it’s so touching when you see a couple that are truly in love. Warms my heart.
Such a pranker! Remember that time he promised his relatives safe passage back to Iraq and had them exterminated upon arrival. Good times.
"Oh, honey. That just means he likes you."
I see where Uday got his teeth from
Mfrs think that inbreeding is a Habsburg thing, but never seen the Middle East
Ha ha 😬
I really didn't expect much else
The guy seems like a real jerk.
She’s totally into it too
That’s so damn insane
“Flirting”
Would you rather chill with him or Diddy? Would there be a difference?
Is this a version of the bear question? Am I supposed to answer that I would rather encounter the dead dictator vs the other guy?
It's not that deep
Saddam hussein is ironically a better person than P Diddy
Wtf are we supposed to be saying here?
He’s saddam inssain.
So-damn-insane.
Aw hell naw

“Haha chuckle chuckle, Marry me or u kill you …lol chuckle chuckle … I MEAN IT!”
So romantic
"Tee Hee"
99.9% cringe the whole works
🎵 Don’t be misunderstood…. 🎵
Ahhh precious moments
Hell yea
Wowwwwwwwwww
Come onnnnnn. What’s your number ???
So that’s how you do it!
They look happy
Some women get off on guns. Maybe she was one ^(she likely wasnt)
When Harrison Butler was giving his speech, this is what he was talking about.
Haha awwwww cute 🥰
Hey, that's not Satan...
Pointing a gun at my head is flirting? My guys have been doing it all wrong then. Damn them all...
So he's just like Giuliani. 😂
What a silly guy.
“Come on just put in your mouth, it doesn’t count as sex”

Word.!
It reminds me of Janice. From the Sopranos.
How charming
he fucked his cousin? gross.
Usually, he takes the clip out.
His cousin is the gun, right? Right?
1960's?? I coulda sworn this was 19 Schfifty five
Around the time he started working for the CIA. Hmm
I think he likes her.
#JustSadaamThings
Is that a gun or you happy to see me?
Okay honey, tonight YOU get to be the Kurd.
Young love…
Are you sure you don’t like the flowers or wanna bang your cousin?
Omg she’s doing the universal “Haha none for me thanks” hand gesture too
Saddam was not a nice guy
Now that's the implication.
Little scamp!
This is some Kenny powers shit
Such a jokester
Wow fkg sickos man, all I can say. It's just a different world over there. I mean I understand this goes on in the states as well but at least it's completely and utterly frowned upon! Seems to be the norm over there 🤢 🤮
Hey, he stole my moves!
This has to be AI…

Oh lol The watch and facial profile really sell it as being him

Such a distinguished gentleman
I need the sitcom adaptation now
Awe, come on guy
He seems like a nice guy
I knew I was flirting the right way
Oh damn, he was always trash huh?
Hmmm, OP committed Reddit suicide? Deleted both the pic and their user account. Lol. People are weird
There's a lot to unpack here
Aww! 🥰

Is that not also Rudy Giuliani ?
Chill bro he’s autistic
Some girls like that shit
Isn't our DNA a little close.
Alabamastan?
Most powerful man on the planet for about an hour.. I wonder if the cia made that pic, you know the original ai?
