I believe the true story is that Teddy Roosevelt was shot before giving a lengthy speech. He took a round in the chest, but he wasn't coughing up blood. As an experienced hunter, he reasoned that his lungs were not punctured, so he ignored pleas that he accept immediate medical attention and went on to deliver an excoriating diatribe about the unholy alliance of big business and big government he believed to be usurping control of the Republican Party.

I believe the true story is that 50 Cent was shot 9 times at close range with a 9mm handgun. With wounds to the thigh, hand, chest, face, and arms, it's doubtful that any reasonable human being would stand a significant chance of fleeing, much less giving a speech.

It may take more than a single shot that barely penetrated to "kill a bull moose," but nine rounds from a handgun would probably have done the trick.

The shot was also lightened by 72 pages of speech-paper.

Teddy, OG

[–]RepostsTheTopComment 0 points1 point ago

After reading this for the thousandth time, I asked my history professor about it last year. He laughed and said he knew exactly what I was talking about because he saw it too. This is what he told me.

  1. 50 Cent was shot with multiple life threatening bullets in one night. He was bleeding out pretty badly and it wasn't as if the bullet barely grazed him. He was actually shot.

  2. Teddy, as great as he is, was a smart man when it came to hunting. He was shot, but the bullet barely penetrated him and he knew that he wasn't going to die because he knew it didn't cause any internal bleeding or hit any organs.

50 Cent isn't a wuss (at least that I know of), but Teddy is still a bad ass.

roosevelt wasn't in business selling records to retards.

Newspaper report---Milwaukee, Wis., October 14, 1912 -- A desperate attempt to kill Col. Theodore Roosevelt tonight failed when a 32 caliber bullet aimed directly at the heart of the former president and fired at short range by the crazed assailant, spent part of its force in a bundle of manuscript containing the address which Co. Roosevelt was to deliver tonight, and wounded the Progressive candidate for President. Col. Roosevelt delivered part of his scheduled address with the bullet in his body, his blood staining his white vest as he spoke to a huge throng at the auditorium. Later, he collapsed, weakened by the wound, and was rushed to Emergency hospital.

My favorite president.

[–]MEWOVER9000 0 points1 point ago

repost, saw this three weeks ago.

[–]BobHope4477 1 point2 points ago

Not sure how much of a repost this is. The originals were made for the Smithsonian and were branded something like "Smithsonian: Historically Hardcore". The Smithsonian didn't appreciate the funny free publicity and demanded they stop. This on is branded "Museums: Historically Hardcore", so the content creator probably re-released, making a repost excusable in my opinion.

Also, fuck you re-post nazis. You've already seen it? Hit your back button and move on, let the people who havent seen it have a laugh.

[–]potatohonkey 0 points1 point ago

Does anyone else think Teddy is coming dangerously close to heil-ing a certain someone in this picture?

[–]LessieHippopotamus 0 points1 point ago

Why'd you only post two of them? If you're going to repost, at least put some effort into it.

[–]mchao 0 points1 point ago

well 50 cent did have an entire clip emptied into him and teddy, if i'm not mistaken, was only shot twice.

[–]Psymmitree 0 points1 point ago

teddy Roosevelt was an evil piece of shit. Not a true gangster

[–]sydleismith 0 points1 point ago

A word from the wise: If it's on Facebook, it's a repost.

[–]djnickel[S] -2 points-1 points ago

Eh, good point.... duly noted sir. Was from someone that I am almost positive isn't a reditor.

[–]sydleismith 1 point2 points ago

I'm a lady :)

[–]djnickel[S] 1 point2 points ago

Sorry, duly noted ms. :)

[–]kpanzer 1 point2 points ago

He even named his political party after the shooting incident.

"Friends, I shall ask you to be as quiet as possible. I don't know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot; but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose." -- T. Roosevelt

[–]Nattgew -1 points0 points ago

He even has his own island.

[–]krahzee 0 points1 point ago

50 Cent got shot and BRAGS about it on stage

FTFY OP.

[–]SHEESHKAH -2 points-1 points ago

Holy shit, every time this is posted I say the same thing.

Fiddy was shot 9 times, he was even shot in the head. Part of the reason why he sounds marble mouthed.

So fuck you for this shit.

[–]DesiccatedDogDicks 1 point2 points ago

It's just a pity her didn't fucking die or was permanently unable to talk. Yeah, man. I'm so fucking tough I got all these bitches and money and fake bling. Look at me! Who doesn't want to be a pimp when they grow up? What a fucking wanker.

[–]djnickel[S] 0 points1 point ago

Whatever, Fifty sucks, and you need to get off his nuts. It's like those dudes in Tool, quit writing songs about how your uncle molested you. Honestly, he's a horrible example to set, and people shouldn't look up to him, all that does is creates a bunch of idiotic trigger happy fuck tard kids who are too quick to solve problems with a bullet than with their mind. "Fiddy" fucking perpetuates ignorance. What's more important, wearing bling, 24" rims, and g-unit clothing or taking care of each other and your family to provide better place for them to live and grow up. If anything this fucking wanker should be helping and showing people that they can and should do better for themselves and their community, but no, bling, rims, bitches is what it's all about. Lame.
