    .22 is lethal

    Always lots of discussion on lethal calibers. A .22 can kill and have many times. Ask any coroner or medic. Robert Kennedy was killed with a .22. President Reagan was shot with a .22 but survived luckily but may others have not. And again, this young man used a MK III Target to do his hideous deed. So...........beware

      Is someone arguing that a 22 is not lethal?

      It's a stupid choice for SD if other calibers are an option. Other calibers are more suited for SD. But I doubt anyone is going to argue that it's not a lethal round...

          That little bullet goes in someone, bounces around inside of them, tearing nerves, arteries, etc. Yes it's deadly.

                  How's the weather at the beach today? I want to head down to Kono's tomorrow morning. I'm in La Mesa right now. It's actually clearing up.

                          Lethality is different than "stopping power". I've heard that a .22 does not have enough "stopping power", but I've never seen it seriously written on this website that it's not lethal.
                          LET'S GO SHARKS!
                          LET'S GO GIANTS!

                          "Clearly you spend way too much time in darkened rooms in front of your computer. Go outside once in a while and breathe before your brain starts to rot from all that stagnation and cognitive dysfunction. You couldn't get a clue during clue mating season in a field of clues if you dipped your body in musk and did the clue mating dance. Leave me alone with all of this nonsense and go shoot them for yourself."

                              I've killed many paper targets with a .22 Buckmark.

                                          It's not a smart choice for Self Defense, but might be a good choice for MURDER.

                                          Remember to dial 1 before 911.

                                          Forget about stopping power. If you can't hit it, you can't stop it.

                                              No you didn't. I wrote exactly what I meant to say.

                                              Furthermore, this is a forum about firearms so in the context of the overriding topic my comment was appropriate.

                                                  Damn it, lock up your guns people, even if you don't have kids. IMO, the uncle should be charged. Every time there is a school shooting its because some idiot left a gun around the house for the teens to get.

                                                      It is unfortunate that this type of incidents tainted all firearm owners.

                                                      But if looking at a bigger picture physicians / hospitals are the worst.
