yea thast why I dont really care that the 'illegal' stuff shown is fake. cause the show still shows us the truth about how moonshining is done, the ingenuity of shiners, all the engineering, etc. its just really cool and you cant fake that part of the show.

[@paintspot1509]

@@ChairmanMeow1 I liked the part where Americans don't have the freedom to make booze. Sounds like you guys need us to come give you some freedom.

[@CJOlin]

The only credit for ingenuity goes to the writers, set dressers and prop makers. Of the few times I actually watched this show, because there was nothing else to watch, the "still" they were using was just a prop. The valves were closed and the copper pipe that was supposedly from the condenser slow dripping into the strainer bucket was attached to a hose!! They couldn't even hide the fakery!!! The Kartrashians is more "real" than this show. I've never seen a single episode of that show, but it's not hard to point out the scripted interactions between the shiners.

[@arnold8746]

@@CJOlin yeah, it is scripted, but all of these situations came from somewhere. The writers and whoever else didn't make them up. The old shiners really did this stuff on a large scale. They built some cool stuff with little to nothing.

[@arnold8746]

[@CJOlin]

I seriously doubt that. The only thing you could say about their "more experiences* in life (than, not then) most people", is the fact they wear new bib overalls on a national cable television show. If that's the highlight of their life and is considered more experience than most people, then their expectations are set pretty low. If your claim to fame is "starring" in a fake scripted show about (alleged) backwoodsman in Deliverance costumes, drinking water from Mason jars with the fake throaty nostril burn....well....good for you. Not sure whether you should be proud or embarrassed. I'm guessing both.

You are correct. Police can and will use video evidence against people in investigations. A film crew can and will act as police any chance they get and they legally can even on public or private property. Patty mayo is the perfect example. You'll notice he never leaves the property the incident starts out on that's for a reason. Patty mayo is not a sheriff officer for any jurisdiction yet he's legally allowed to act as a sheriff on film even have a vehicle marked sheriff legally.

[@reallyriley123]

Yep and on top of it if it wasnt for the show anyone who literally is renting that land would be able to take all the water they want with as many cops there and they wouldnt have to say a literal word to the cops and just move along.. what are they gonna do go with em past multiple counties and a state then use the jusisdiction they have there?
