Why carry a 357 Magnum when you you carry a .20 pistol?


from wikipedia:
"Loads are available with energies from about 400 (ft·lbf) to over 700 (ft·lbf), and penetration depths from 9 inches to over 27 inches are available for various applications and risk assessments."

that's called man-stopping power. I know someone assaulted and shot four times with a .22 and is laughing about it today. If it was a .357 mag they wouldn't be laughing.

I work in IT we can make numbers do anything!

Like statistics, those numbers can show anything I guess.

I would rather be shot than stabbed to death or beated with a club.

Visiting the UK isn't on anyone's list by the way.


This is similar to Canada. Death from firearms is low, however, death from blunt trauma, beatings, and stabbings are much higher than in the U.S.

Why have years of history lessons in American schools when you can learn everything about the gun culture from a simple couple of minute cartoon?




See? Americans don't need guns... pfft... just a big ol' hug

What I meant by that is there is not enough people awake to what is going on...
