A reliable source tells me that in 2016, a trepanation was performed on Lawrence O’Donnell, wherein they threw away the skull and kept the hole. I have hesitated bringing this up because the skull makes an excellent planter.
Journalists, the lowest level of intellect in any college programs. The equivalent of the mythical underwater basket weaving major.
How about asking the dimwit how all of those people in Chicago, Baltimore, and other fascist run cities are killed by handguns each week.
According to his deep knowledge they should be able to outrun the bullet. Ask him if he would be willing to have someone fire a 9mm at him to demonstrate how quickly he can step aside or outrun it.
I was going to say that. A .545 from 1911 would knock the perp all the way over.
The only time the speed of the projectile matters is when you are talking distance travelled.
The effective distance of your average pistol round is going to be a maximum of 100 yards and when counting in accuracy in a combat situation probably 50 yards (or substantially less with a shooter with little training).
A rifle bullet can be expected to be effective out to 400 yards or more.
The rifle has a big advantage when distance to the target becomes factor. The longer the distance to the target the more advantage the rifle has over the hand gun. The higher speed of the rifle bullet means it can travel a longer distance while still carrying sufficient kinetic energy to be effective.
In a school shooting situation, the distance to the target would be unlikely to be greater than 20 yards and in most cases would be under 10 yards.
So the relative speed of the bullet is unimportant to this debate.
The real question is; if the school shooter does not meet any armed resistance at all what is to stop him from killing students and teachers until he exhausts his supply of ammunition?
MSNBC just picks the worst of the lot.............which ain’t easy!.............
Holy Moses! Maybe they should just train teachers to put their fingers in the barrel of the shooter’s gun. Maybe we could arm teachers with corks.
Do these freaks in the media ever go home at night humiliated at the ignorance they displayed that day?
These bullets seem to be pretty effective in Chicago.
The f*ckfaces deliberately and intentionally changed Trump’s words to “all teachers” and now are in attack mode. They object to armed cops in the schools too. They want more kids killed.
If you really want to see them self lobotomize, start explaining the energy of the fired projectile and how it is dispersed in a target. What about the cavitation inside soft tissue as it relates to the energy and configuration of said projectile. Hollow point Vs. FMJ Vs. “armor piercing”.
So why does Superman duck when the gun is thrown at him?
This would be laughable were it not so pathetic
O’Donnell is the lying liar who lies. Remember that rant he burst out with about the Swiftboaters?
He’s been fired from news at least twice. He ought to be unemployable.
A bullet traveling at about 3,000fps is about 2,000mph.
I think CNN has the 2018 Winter Olympics in their drug addled brains. So a AR-15 would win in the downhill snow board race and win the gold. Using the downhill analogy, it is how fast you get out of the starting gate that makes all the difference. But that is not that simple. A skilled shooter with a Glock 22 (the preferred weapon of law enforcement), with its 15-round .40 S&W cartridge, has big power (35,000 pounds per square inch) when it connects with its target. Having 15 rounds in your gun’s magazine increases the potential for accurate shots. So, the winner in the game is how fast can you acquire your target, the magazine capacity and the impact of the projectile.
So is my 7.62 X 51.
