Topic	Why do movie people still pull back the hammer of their gun?
omega cookie 07/25/17 10:53:22 PM #9:	There's a scene in the books for The Expanse about this. A character is holding people at gun point making demands when he cocks the gun to let them know he's serious, and they all instantly pull theirs and it starts a shoot out, despite everything being relatively calm until that moment. Afterwards, he asks why everything went sideways and states that he thought he was supposed to do that to let everyone know he wasn't kidding. One of the main characters responds with something like "When you did that, everyone realized you were an idiot. Nobody trusts an idiot with a gun." To answer the question, they do it because stupid people think you're supposed to. --- FFRK: BRKB - Eiko - Guardian Mog FFBE: 885,063,087 - Orlandeau - 931 ATK <cite>omega cookie posted [p:883603775] in Why do mov...
