"I would hope they would make you shoot with both hands, I was shooting by the time I was ten and my dad made my brothers and me learn with both hands, even the automaticx that ejected right into our faces. "

I think you mean either hand.

Yes, those would be damn hard to shoot with one hand. Plus with the mass they do not move so fast. To fix the penetration problem there are probably hollowpoints available. Somewhere in my IE links I have a site that sells what they call the deadliest round ever made, perhaps non exploding. They had videos comparing their new round to other expanding rounds, shooting them into that thick gelatin. But even a snub nosed round out of a .50 can kill you from getting hit in the arm. It tears it up so bad you bleed to death unless there is a doctor literally 30 seconds away.

But penetration is why I traded off my SKS. I had the copper tips and didn't see hollowpoints for it. Living in the city it would be irresponsible to shoot the thing even for self defense. The fucker could go through the wall of the house and into nextdoor even if you don't miss the target. I think hollowpoints should be required in urban areas. I have heard about shots going through walls into a crib in another house or apartment and killing a kid.

I am against almost all laws against gun ownership, especially at home. Shooting them is a different story, there needs to be some limits on that. There is a guy on Usenet right now who shoots varmint on his property out in the stix. He is looking for some sort of expanding round or whatever because these things move and it is hard to hit the vital area. He feels bad that they run off and die slowly. Believes it is inhumane. I can't disagree but he wants them for a .22. Now a .22 with hollowpoints is not likely to be all that effective against a big Man. I was shot in the face with a .38 and it didn't kill me. And there are and were alot of people much tougher and bigger than me.

But you can still kill with a smallbore usually, you have to shoot from underneath and hit in the right place of the chest. I know, well knew someone this happened to, one of our favorite bar owners. A customer leaves, he hears a ruckus at the front door and the customer is getting robbed. He tried to help and died by .25. I questioned how the hell could a big guy like that get killed with such a puny round and they told me, they got him at just the right angle. And sometimes a .22 or .25 won't even penetrate the human skull. (thick headed MFs !)

So anyway I traded the SKS for a Mossberg 9200 12 guage and a small, old .38. I would like to trade down from the Mossberg and get a better handgun so I can use the .38 as a droppiece. I shit happens, life goes alot easier if you have a droppiece. Most cops have them. Topcop Simone got busted with his. Problem is this will be all private party, for the same reason I never joined the NRA. Name on a list. All they have to do is read the address off the NRA publication and they know where to confiscate and while liberals say they will never take your guns, they lie just like anyone else.

For me the question is: Since the NRA represents only 6% of gun owners in the US, and currently advocates radical positions that are not shared by the majority of gun owners, why are they so immensely powerful a voice on the issues of guns? Why have the “silent majority” of gun owners who do not hold the extreme positions of the NRA, been “locked out” of the gun debate? Is it simply a question of $?

Texas police fatally shoot woman who killed her two daughters

A mother in a suburban Texas town fatally shot her two daughters Friday, before police shot her dead in front of her home.

That afternoon, Christy Sheats had called her husband, Jason Sheats, and their two daughters, Madison, 17, and Taylor, 22, into their living room for a family meeting, the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office said.

When they were all gathered together, Christy Sheats held up a gun and shot both her daughters, police said. The girls and their father managed to run out of the house before Madison collapsed. Sheats followed and shot Taylor twice more, while Jason Sheats ran to the end of the street, according to authorities.

When police arrived at the house in response to a 911 call about shots being fired, they found the daughters lying in the street, bleeding. Christy Sheats stood nearby, holding a five-shot .38 caliber handgun, the sheriff’s office said. When she refused to drop the gun and moved toward the officers with her weapon raised, police said, an officer shot and killed her.

Taylor was shot three times and pronounced dead at the scene. Madison was shot once and airlifted to Memorial Hermann Hospital, where she died later that night, the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

The Sheats lived in the Katy area near Fulshear, a suburb about 25 miles west of Houston. The community is relatively affluent with a low crime rate, said Maj. Chad Norvell, commander of the Administration Bureau of the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office.

“These types of things, no one can predict,” he said.

Investigators are now trying to determine why Sheats killed her daughters. “Obviously she was in some sort of mental crisis,” Norvell said.

Since January 2012, the sheriff’s office had responded to 14 calls for service at the house, authorities said.

Norvell said the calls included the house alarm going off and medical emergencies, but he refused to discuss the specific nature of these instances.

In recent months, Sheats had posted on Facebook about her Christian religious beliefs, her disapproval of President Obama and liberal politics, and her support for gun rights.

On Jan. 9, she posted a meme celebrating gun ownership and criticizing Obama for his support of gun control, with the caption “That’s right! #merica”


Facebook
She was also vocal about her love for her two daughters. She posted on “Daughters Day” last year:

“Happy Daughters Day to my two amazing, kind, beautiful, intelligent girls. I love and treasure you both more than you could ever possibly know.”

Madison Sheats was going to be a senior at Seven Lakes High School this fall and worked as a babysitter, according to her Facebook page.

Taylor Sheats had recently graduated from Lone Star College. She frequently displayed her artwork, including commissioned pieces, on Facebook.

Neighbors told the news station KTRK that they were shocked by the shooting.

“This is not the Christy that I know. It’s just not,” Catherine Knowles, a friend of Christy’s, told the station.

“I couldn’t imagine anything in her life that would have made her snap,” she added.

To an outside observer, the Sheats family appeared to be close.

On Jan. 6, Christy Sheats posted about a new roller coaster opening up at Cedar Point amusement park. “We are going as soon as this new world record coaster opens!!!” she wrote, tagging her husband and daughters in the post. All three liked the post and responded with excitement.


Facebook
The officer’s shooting of Sheats is being investigated to ensure it was justified, Norvell said.

“We certainly think it was,” he added.

When asked whether the police intended to kill Sheats, Norvell responded, “If we shoot someone, that’s the only way we shoot. We shoot to end the threat.”

Actually, it doesn't. A convict is a person who's been convicted by a court of law, and you remain a convict in that sense after your release from the big house.

People who are formally inprisoned are normally called ex-cons not that it matteres since it is a baldface totally unsubstantiated lie.

Also read the rest of his post and you will see that he does mean that in what passes for his brain he thinks, or wants someone to think that I am currently in prison.

Honestly I think he wants to see how long he can keep getting you to respond to his bullshit and I hate to say it but he does seem to be doing a great job of not only getting you to respond but quoting his bullshit as well so that those of us with the sense to hide him, still have to see it. Now I have no idea why the forum moderators seem to be afraid to do anything about him but apparently they are.
