Just watched the film for the first time like a week ago, perfect timing for this interview I guess. Pretty amazing career, I love firearms and it seems like it would be an exciting thing to get into, stressful but exciting! I felt bad for David watching the film, seemed like he really wanted to do the right thing but he wasn't the owner of the business. I'm not saying he was innocent, he made mistakes for sure but he wasn't the guy the media wanted to make him out to be, that was Efraim. Efraim is a good example of a narcissist, only thinks about himself and that story with the headlights shows it perfectly. Tbh I'm surprised he made it out of jail with all his teeth with the way he acted, must have realized he needed to tone it down a bit because you can't just go around burning bridges with inmates...
Broooo the fact that this dude designed the beat buddy is fucking nuts.

Sooo David probably doesn’t remember me, but we would go to the same gym in Miami and I had a MAJOR crush on him. This was also before the movie came out! Like 2013/14 😂😂 and he knew. BUT funny enough I worked for American Airlines and I met Miles Teller, while boarding a flight. He’s a total asshole! So good for David that he doesn’t keep in touch lol

I think being an arms dealer has more problems than solutions. The weapon of warfare is spiritual entitlement to the will of God and also investing in His word.
Is this the guy from war dogs ?
HE SAID:- He had,"1.8 million dollars" in his account/ CASH How does that even make any sense?????(TELL ME)😆😆😆😆

Because floods are common in the ancient world and tend to be remembered. The Epic of Gilgamesh predates the Bible by quite a bit and is almost exactly like the biblical flood story. So the Bible wasn't the original story

Not really to bad compared to some guests amd crimes. At least its not violent or child crimes. I cant even think of my child doing that kinda crazy shit, this is more disappointed but still a member of the family after imo.
The irony that he uses science to support his argument that there is no God and the Bible is not correct when in fact science very foundation verifies there is a God and the creation of science comes from God.

The Bible does not contradict itself . Science wants to contradict the Bible ! Science is claims that something came from nothing(big bang) scientifically speaking they know that’s impossible there is an architect for all that we see and know. And his name is YHWH . I agree that religiosity makes people not want to believe in God but let’s stay away from it ! Follow Christ . He is the way the truth and the life (John14:6) no one goes to the father but through him including Jews.

@@emzymedford6701say what you mind but your only way to contradict what I said is saying to go back to sleep you’re funny . Come back with facts both biblical and scientific than we can talk your ignorance and lack of knowledge only makes you look bad. Go seek the truth and I pray you find it . At the end you will bow down and you will confess that Jesus Christ is king . Whether you “believe” or not
