Bro, first of you need to chill. This board is about discussion and not about fighting.
As for your theories, I will agree that slin can be very safe if it is well thought out and taking intelligently and correctly. The problem with your posts is that you are generalizing. You cant tell people (and in this case a person that should not be taking anything at all, imo) that its safe to take 10-15ius and just watch it with carbs. While it is true that if you are taking high levels of slin, and keep dextrose on hand, you can kinda save yourself by drinking the dextrose as you fell hypo, this is not advice you want to give to people.
I know may pros that do a hell of a lot more slin than that, and yes the basically sit on a 10-20lb jug of dextrose all day drinking it as they get hypo. But these are people that have the experience and knowledge to protect themselves, not to mention doctors and such to supervise them.
Bottom line is this, while on a discussion board you need to think BEFORE you respond so that you are not giving advice to someone that could KILL them. If a 19 year old kid took 15ius of slin and just waited to take a glucose tab when he felt hypo, he would probably die in the long run in insulin shock.
Please think first, then type. Thanks.
P.S. If your friend is only taking protien and carbs if he goes hypo as you said, your friend needs to do much more research. The whole point of slin is to puch as much possible carbs and protien into your muscles as possible. By only taking things when he feels hypo he is kinda defeating the whole purpose of slin. Also, he is taking the wrong kind of slin for bodybuilders to take. He should be taking humalog as it works faster postworkout and last for 4 hours so that you can better regulate symptoms.
