I came across this youtube video this morning. 

Quote
A man attending the party became upset and left, but he returned with another person, police said. They went to the backyard and argued with several people.

The man shot at least one person in the backyard, and fled as other party-goers chased the shooter, police said.

The shooter turned and fired at the group, but other people picked up concrete landscaping bricks and hurled them at the shooter, police said.

At some point, the shooter was caught by the group, and either fell or was taken down by the group. The shooter continued shooting, striking at least at least three others, authorities said.

One of the gunshot victims died at the scene, police said.

I like their spirit, but gotta find a better way to take down an active shooter than throwing paving stones so more people don't get shot.

How about slingshots?

Quote
Civilians with sling shots and homemade shotguns are scrambling to repel terrorists with assault rifles in Nigeria’s north, according to a leader of the group that saw action the night of July 31.

“We laid in the grass firing stones with our slingshots and firing the few Dane guns [shotguns] in our possession to scare the attackers,” said a civilian watch leader, who declined to give his name.

“The locally made ones [guns] fire only pellets not bullets. The shots don’t go more than 50 meters and can’t be automatic, unlike the AK47/9 [used by the terrorists] which can fire up to 3 rounds/sec and a distance of 300-400m,” wrote Gabriel Ad’Ofikwu, a retired Major in the Nigerian Army, in a text message. “They are by far inefficient to repel the attackers.”

Despite their weak firepower, the vigilantes were unyielding during the invasion, blocking the terrorists  to allow women and children to evacuate, the young citizen watch leader told The Epoch Times.

Palestinian protestors regularly use slingshots in their clashes with Israeli troops. Not sure if any troops have ever been killed by a slingshot, but more than a few have been injured.

The Romans used slingshots with great effect.

Whateer weapon comes to hand.

I still opine that the world would be a lot more peaceful if every person who wanted one could be issued a .22 single shot rifle and ammo in unlimited quantities.

I have recently updated my position from "a brick of ammo" to "ammo in unlimited quantities."

Call me old fashioned,  I don't mind.

^ The 10/22 comes pretty close to that, with 20 round magazines where not infringed upon, and with the infringement of semi auto only.

That's what Resident Biden advises, so it must be a good idea.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I was wondering when that would be specifically mentioned. I'm sure President Biden was thinking of birdshot with his advice to fire in the air, but I don't think he or his advisers thought of buckshot or slugs coming back down.  Piss-poor advice any way you look at it, even if claimed as a joke.

Back during the Roaring 90s here in St. Louis, I kept a wrist rocket and a bunch of .50 lead balls in my glove compartment. I don't know if it would be fatal, but they would go through a 1" pine board.

I am waiting for someone to call for stone control:

"If only those stone pavers had been secured, it would have saved my son's life.  We can't keep stone pavers just lying around for some little kids to access.  They might stone each other.
Stone pavers need to be secured when not in use or disassembled.  We don't give lawn darts to little kids (anymore), why would we let them access stones!"

The data clearly show that over 99% of violent criminals had failed to receive a covid-19 vaccine.* Demand your congressmen mandate vaccines for all citizens immediately. The life you save may be your own.

*Our study included data from the years 1964-2014.
