While I want to make a smarty pants comment about "wow, the new mace, laser pointer and gun features on modern smartphones are amazing", I well aware that unfortunately such dangerous devices can indeed be disguised from standard form.

Maybe he was trying to disarm itThere's a sucker born every minute, I suppose. Unfortunately for Alec's self defense, um, defense, there's video of him entering a flurry of commands into O’Halloran's phone right after he slapped it out of his hand. That's consistent with the claim that Alec was trying to delete the recording in progress, and completely and utterly inconsistent with the premise that Alec was trying to avoid being harmed by a firearm, mace, or laser pointer.
I'm not defending Peters in any way. Or suggesting O'Halloran carries weapons. But dangerous items/weapons can be disguised.Ummm...what?
Of course, and Alec simply brought up the point in his courtroom hearing to lay the groundwork for his defense against an assault charge. He and his minions are desperately working to provide some kind of legitimate basis for his actions.There's a sucker born every minute, I suppose.

The whole thing is childish for both parties. You have a guy who has been saying for YEARS that you stalk him........so what do you do? Confront him while wearing a Facemask.....laying the groundwork for a narrative that any lawyer could take advantage of........Is that what actually happened or was he just attending the con and decided to face down AP since he was there? There’s a big difference between the two. His actions re how he confronted Peters were idiotic, but that’s another matter.
I'm not disagreeing with that. What I was questioning was @SITZKRIEG! 's assertion that...The whole thing is childish for both parties.

...and if that was the case, or if Shawn just happened to be attending the con before he foolishly confronted the Con.Yup. Spend thousands on a family vacation with your wife and kid(s)? Nah. Fly across the country to do something dumb just to prove the other guy is even dumber and then spend thousands more on the legal fallout. That'll show the other guy!
He was invited by Paul Jenkins to hang out with him and work in his booth at the con.......so I'm guessing it was just a few hundred vs thousands. Attending the con isn't my business, nor are his finances. I was simply stating that if I had been there I would have just steered clear of LFIM.I'm not disagreeing with that.

For some reason, my new phone (my only current Internet access) only goes to a few certain Facebook pages (I'm not on FB), and this one isn't one I can see.Wuh-oh, this could get interesting...

AP will see this as a direct attack against him. Big shot taken off his bow. This is going to get profoundly entertaining. We are going to need a LOT of popcorn...FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DHann Productions is pleased to announce its exciting new film project- CAPTAIN GARTH: A STAR TREK FAN PRODUCTION. Based on the character from the original Star Trek series, CAPTAIN GARTH will follow the highs and lows of Garth’s starfleet career post the Four Years War and prior to the original series episode “Whom Gods Destroy” and aims to give an insightful look at one of the most fascinating and tragic characters within the Star Trek iconography.
CAPTAIN GARTH is being produced in the province of Newfoundland, Canada, and is produced by Darren Hann. The production team includes various members who have brought the geek fandom favourites like STAR TREK: RELIANT (web series) 11 Episodes, STAR WARS: Inner Demons(short film), STARGATE: REPLICATION (short film), and PLAN 9.5 FROM OUTER SPACE (short film) all of which can currently be found on youtube and Vimeo.
As per the Fan Film Guidelines set by Paramount and CBS, CAPTAIN GARTH will consist of two 15 minute episodes, shot with a cast and crew of amateurs, and is self-funded.
Thank you. And if I may quote from one of Scott Bakulas' characters "oh boy!"Here ye go...AP will see this as a direct attack against him. Big shot taken off his bow. This is going to get profoundly entertaining. We are going to need a LOT of popcorn...

I am curious if they, too, will be using FASA source material for this project.
Darren is in no way connected with the Axanar scam. He's produced nearly a dozen Trek Fan Films without holding his hand out for donations. I'm happy to see him get back into it.I’d almost suggest Peters would try a lawsuit here but I think even he would have a hard time coming up with cause. “This guy stole my idea for a fan film for something I already got sued for stealing?”
Even Peters isn’t that moronic…
Unless…?
Seriously, I wish the production the best of luck. I imagine we’ll see this before we see Axanar.
