lesson of the story, ALWAYS keep a firearm by the door when you answer the door you never know who or what is going to be on the other side of the door. When I answer my door, I always have, guess what, my Walther P22 locked and loaded in my back pocket for just such an occasion. People think its stupid but dammit it could save your fuckin life, Imagine if you had your children in the house or your wife.. for the love of God people... buy a firearm, its your God given right to defend yourselves.

@mskiUSMC Well said. Thanks for the comment.

I love how you ended the video with star wars. hahhaha. But in all seriousness, as another commenter said, when it comes to bullet placement, caliber doesnt matter.

Excellent story: plot, action, chracters, theme, setting. Nicely-narrated with good voice intonation. Good work. / English Prof.

if you think the .22 is small check out the .17 cal.

Until about 30 years ago, if not later, the vast majority of polar bears 'harvested' by the Inuit in the North West Territories (Canada) were shot with... you guessed it! 22LR

Personally I don't think I would care to shoot any bear with a 22 BUT it only goes to prove that with proper shot placement can make a small weapon VERY lethal.

@deke441 #1 reason to end the illegal prohibitions, crime associated with intoxicants. Read your ninth amendment with the intoxicant keyword found in another famous amendment as the other right.

In 1980s $s, the cost of cut up cocaine cost $120 per tainted gram, while it only cost $0.02 for a pure gram of pharmaceutical grade cocaine. The word "drug" a human can consume is alcohol, the only legal intoxicant.

Get to the point.

It's about time there was a comment about shot placement!

[mememojo]

when it comes to shot placement it doesn't matter what caliber you use.

.22s can cause extensive terminal damage through irratic trajectory, internal ricocheting, and fragmentation. However, because of their lack of kinetic energy and unpredictable nature, I wouldn't trust one as a primary weapon: they can just as easily break apart on a bone or swerve around the body cavity or skull, as create a mortal wound. The wound may also result in a fatality in several minutes, but that isn't always going to save you during the instant.

How many times must you say "uhhhhh"
