I personally hope they get burned big time.

Brown Bear · 09-24-2002, 10:58 PM

I wonder if that means the bumfights video will be illegal to be sold?

If not, this is just extra good attention that bumfights will get. More sales more money baby!

What, so now getting grown men to act stupid in front of a camera is a form of "statutory rape"?

I don't give a shit if they are vulnerable, thats their own fault for being bums in the first place.

Like it or not, they still have rights.

ammo325 · 09-24-2002, 11:08 PM

What rights of theirs has been violated? Someone school me here because I don't see what the problem is.

No clue.

Waiting to see the preliminary.

Brown Bear · 09-24-2002, 11:11 PM

Before I saw Bumfights I never thought there was any use for homeless people

Is fighting legal where you live? If it isn't does it make sense to you that to pay someone to fight would be legal?

They should have got the bums to sign something saying that they were paid to be stunt performers or something like that.

ammo325 · 09-24-2002, 11:19 PM

Why would it be illegal? I an in Vegas and they get paid. Shit they should bet on the fights in the Casinos!

I suspect the charges will be multiple. DA's usually pile on all of the charges they posssibly can.

If you are comparing professional boxing (and I don't know that your are) a legally sanctioned activity to street fighting then it is not comparable.

Brujah · 09-24-2002, 11:27 PM

Would this affect the Total Catfights too ?

Pipecrew · 09-24-2002, 11:36 PM

Bubeck and McPherson were charged with conspiracy, solicitation of a felony crime and illegally paying people to fight.

hahah yep they are DONE....... good

ammo325 · 09-24-2002, 11:37 PM

So if I offered the bums food instead of money would this still constitute breaking the law?

After all they are getting fed.

L0stMind · 09-24-2002, 11:53 PM

bums should sign away all their rights before they become bums.

Producers claim to have sold more than 300,000 copies of "Bumfights" over the Internet for $19.99 each. .

That's nearly 6 million dollars gross!!

I wonder if they can make bail?

WiredGuy · 09-25-2002, 12:10 AM

so i gather that volumes 2 and up are not going to be released? I liked the DVD I got from mini holio and was looking forward to more. Addictive and probably a good seller. I was just about to start promoting SilverCash's BumFight site as well, damn!

Believe me...if you guys were constantly surrounded by bums, you'd have a whole 'nother outlook. They're a complete waste of space. I love seein' bums beat the shit outta eachother. It's some funny shit.

I buy Penthouse & Playboy mags off 'em in my neighborhood...lol. They walk around w/ a shopping cart filled w/ 'em. I give 'em like $5 for 10. They love it!

Mr.Fiction · 09-25-2002, 12:42 AM

I'm not totally clear how this is illegal, unless these guys didn't get the right legal paperwork before they did the stuff. People fight in movies all the time. People fake fight with each other in the street all the time. It seems like one of the bums would have to press charges to make the police case work.

If they had the bums sign a contract/release saying they were acting in a video, then it seems like there's nothing the cops could do. If they didn't get all the right paperwork, and they were paying these guys to commit crimes (assault each other), then watch the bums turn around and sue everybody involved.

Roofus the Stunt Bum might become Roofus the Rich Motherfucker if he gets the right lawyer!

Personally, I think the Bum Fights guys should be able to get out of this if they get the right lawyers and make sure the bums don't turn on them. It's just acting, right? Wink, wink.

Where is Law Pal when we need him?

Dildozer · 09-25-2002, 01:46 AM

Making someone sign a contract isn't all that though. You have to consider the person's level of mental health. Those guys look a bit retarded to me, and that could void any contract they could've signed.

You would look retarded too if you lived outside in a box!

Schwick · 09-25-2002, 12:50 PM

It says in the article that they sold 300,000 tapes over the internet. Can anyone tell me if they sold exclusively on the net, or did they also sell through to the videostore market?

FrankyW · 09-25-2002, 02:18 PM

The guys over there decided to start their own Don King Productions.... Bunch of idiots
