A gun in hand beats a cop on a phone.

The thing is, semiautomatics (like AR-15s) DON'T "spit out 30 rounds a second." Each pull of the trigger is ONE round. If you held down the trigger, you would get.... ONE round.

At most you could do a 2-3 round burst. When you say 30 rounds/sec, you are thinking of a machine gun, like an M-60.

The M60 has a cyclic rate of 650 RPM which 10.8 RPS.

Now if you have a Mini gun 60 RPS is accurate.

Thanks for the correction! I not well versed on RPS rates. I focus more on historical weaponry.

I had to look it up. It has been a long time (over 40 uears) since I fired one.

You could not get a 2-3 round burst with the civilian AR that is probably the most popular rifle sold in the USA. Only 1 shot per trigger pull. The military version is different from the one sold throughout the country.

In his defense, I believe he meant get off two or three rounds. He mistakenly said burst.

I know- it depends on the gun.

You think all women can handle a shotgun? Stop talking about what you have absolutely zero idea about.

Some can.

You're the one that brought up the whole exaggeration of "30 rounds per second".

The fact that we're pointing out the fact that you have no credibility in this matter is just grating on your one last nerve, isn't it?

"A shotgun is still the situational weapon of choice in this scenario" that's your opinion.

Any firearm would be great, but the more capacity the better, as in this scenario you can't really expect to be able to aim perfectly. Yes, it is very close range, but this person will be attacking you, thus he will be in motion, and that increases the chance of a miss.

Only an intruder with a crowbar, huh? LMAO

The criminal: LOOK OUT!!!!! He's gotta chair!!!!

AND IT'S GOT AN ARMREST!!!! I SURRENDER!!!

It's armed????? We need legislations to cancel chairs. A lot of them are armed.

Reminds me of this scene from Braveheart, when Hamish and William have a rock throwing contest.

Hamish being Anthisesis with a heavy chair and the burglar with a Glock 19.

He wouldn't eventually get up with a splitting headache. He should of had a high power, semi automatic assault chair.

Those have been banned in the US. Good luck purchasing one.

Damned liberals!!!!!!!

What do you mean? They are the saviors because they are the only group you can purchase one from - legal or not legal.

You lost me here.

Liberals.... Tend to sell things that are illegal to sell. Like drugs, guns, weapons, people, and so on.

In a society where we are banning semiautomatic arm chairs... The only place you could get on would be the black market. I'm just gonna guess you're not buying a semi automatic armchair from a republican in that scenario.

Make better sense now? 😎😁

No, you only SEE that he has a crowbar. Who knows what is under his jacket or tucked in his waistband.

Mute point in Colorado, once he steps through that door deadly force is authorized no matter what he's armed with.

I would take a shotgun but I also know how to operate an AR15, AK47, or any other big bad scary "assault" weapons. In 22 years in the corps, I fired on full auto about once that I remember. That was before the M16A2 was introduced, after that the most that you could do was 3 round burst.

It doesn't matter what the cyclic rate of your weapon is, anyone that shoots that fast is not going to hit much, you're right. But, that's on full auto. You need an FFL to buy one of those legally, so your argument is null and void. Only a few elites of society own them, not us peons.

Hahahaha I missed that 30 rounds a second statement

Right?! It must be such a heavy heavy burden for these know it all ash wipes that feel the need to try to educate us knuckle dragging crayon eaters with their made up exaggerations. When they're called out they got nothing. NOTHING.

He also claimed one could die after 2 seconds of compression to the side of the neck lolol.

I hadn't seen that post.

Arm chair commandos know it all.

Sure if that part is ran over with say a car going full speed. . .

Vulcan Death Grip?

Pretty sure I memed that to him at the time lolol

That was highly logical Captain.

Alright, now beam me into Monica Bellucci's bedroom.

Just watched that episode a week ago!

Great show

What would be best firearm for causing the least amount of blood spray while still being lethal?

Flamethrower

Not in the house.

High powered potato launcher wins. You cave in their skull, no blood loss, and when you're done - you can pick up the remnants of the potato and make a nice mash.

Dude! That ain't ketchup!!!

Yeah... It's just ketchup officer. For my.... Uh. Fries.

SPOILER ALERT - have you seen "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood?

I don't watch Tarapedo garbage.

His last good one was with the bail bondsman

Yes, "Jackie Brown" was classic.

Good acting in that one. Probably DeZero's last good role before he became a pussy who'd sell out for cash cuz his wife took him to the cleaners hahaha

I agree. Not all of Tarantino or DeNiro's stuff is my cup of tea, but when it's good, it's good. I honestly don't know what Tarantino's political bent is (gotta lean left to get anything done in Hollyweird) but I totally ignore anything that DeNiro says offscreen.

Yes, I use to love deNiro flicks, gotta be honest. But man did he go belly up.

Quinton is a self loathing libterd cuck. But in his early movies it wasn't much of a factor. What can you say about a guy who teamed up with and fallatioed Harvey Weinstein? But I remember renting Reservoir Dogs from blockbuster before it was hyped and was pretty stoked on It. Again, really solid actors

High powered potato launcher.

I hate to use a template featuring Arnold, but it fits the situation so well that I can't resist.

I'm a bit PO'ed at him right now, I don't know how long that will last.

Depends on the range, I would think.

I've been looking into one handed crossbows. Cheap, no license needed, and a bolt can be as lethal as a pistol round with (hopefully) less of the mess that bullets and shells tend to cause as the intruder is bleeding out on a carpet.

That is a great idea! The upside is that there's no noise so you could dispose of the perp's body and no one would know.

The downside is that the reload time is longer so you need to make sure you get them on the first shot or have a backup weapon.

One for each hand. Reloads on the sleeve for a quick pull across reload while you use the other one.

That's where the psychological matter happens. People tend to freeze/panic more when they see what it is that put a hole in their body and will also have the first instinct of pulling the object out which is never a good idea.

These tend to have pretty sensitive triggers.

Good point!

Man - with all of that concern for neighbors houses getting shot, you think you would ever just once speak out against the insane amount of gun violence committed by African Americans.

Because when you do it, it's rights, when they do it, it's crime?

Well, I think we're ready to take a vote now.

I also have never fired a gun, don't want to fire a gun, won't ever own a gun, don't want to own a gun.... But I'm not so afraid of guns (or people with guns) that I am going to force other people to not have guns.

Guns are like any other weapon - in the right hands it's a useful tool for many things. Hunting, protection, and sporting events aren't bad things. In the wrong hands - it's an instrument of destruction.

So what can be said of the gun itself then? Should we ban guns because they can be harmful? No. Absolutely not.

The fact of the matter is that we have WAY more gun owning Americans NOT commiting crimes with them than we have Americans commiting crimes with them. If legal owners were an issue - we would know. There would be millions of gun crimes every day. Instead we have a small percentage of criminals to legal gun owners - yet you never speak out against the criminal.

Please tell me why you don't speak out against criminals.

Learn the difference between defense and offense, genius.

You equate shooting people over territory, drugs, and gang affiliation with self/home defense?

Whatever excuses the criminals. It's a leftist thing.

The OP is about a person in their own home - facing invasion from a presumably white criminal. Yes... When in your own home with your firearm - and someone is invading, you have the right to protect yourself.

My statement was about criminals using guns during crimes... So yes, that is how this analogy works out. Was that confusing in some way?

I have a shotgun, thats all anyone really needs, you hear that thing cock, most people, even would be thieves would know to high tail it outta there. No real accuracy required.

You and Joe.

I have three shotguns, a bolt action 22 winmag, a 9mm, and a 32 that may or may not be properly registered just in case I may or may not need a throw away. Still collecting while I'm on this side of the mass grave.

Guns are easy to get, what's hard to find is ammo.

I have a collection too. But in my nightstand is my trusty S&W Governor Revolver. It shoots both shot shells and .45 cal hollow-points. The business end of it looks like a city sewer pipe, and the red dot laser is guaranteed to make the perp poop his pants so that hopefully the trigger will never have to be pulled.

I have never had to draw.

Me neither. And I sincerely hope that I will never have to. Then again, I have fire extinguishers too. And I hope to never need one of those either. But I’d rather have and not need, then need and not have.

Yep. The black ones too, because black guns matter.

😂

African American guns... Be a little more respectful.

That gets my sealed gunshot of approval!

What you need is a firing kiln and bullet molds - and gun powder.

Lol, ya you keep thinking that.

And, as I say, a burglar alarm and some heavy furniture will do the job just as well.

Your wife and children are capable of picking up and hurling heavy furniture?

From what I have seen of your posts I doubt you would be.

Or, more likely, antithesis has a husband, we shouldn't assume.

She may jout throw Antithesis at the burglar.

I suppose furniture and appliances will be next on the banned list.

Hahaha, the fantasy world you live in makes me laugh. Throw your purse at him and he’ll go away.

I'm surprised he didn't just advocate for reasoning with him.

Call in the social workers after the police are defunded.

If I am going break into your house, I would disable the power , to disable the alarm. By the time those soy based muscles have moved the chair a foot or two - you're already brained.

Shotgun ? Yes would help. Personally I would rely on my swords. Hard to carry a crowbar when your hand with the crowbar drops to the ground.

hahahahahahahahahaha like you're the first person who's thought of trying to screw with the power supply on my street. Tell you what, if you pull that off, I'll award you a free shot.

Sounds about right doesn't it? spending tons of money just to get a little from a home invasion?

Tell him having power is white supremacy in action. He'll turn it off right away... If there was someone around to virtue signal to.

It's WHITE POWER - of course! They will denergize themselves.

Actually if I wanted to break in, I would just enter his house without his permission, then demand he feed me and provide me medicine. Then also a place to sleep. I'll do his families chores for a much lesser rate too.

If he doesn't do so to my needs- he is supporting closing down illegal immigration, because I'm just doing to him what they are to the US.

Oh I'm totally sure his door is open, just exactly as he advocates for the border. No locks for him!

If I were going to do it - trust me, it would get done. I wouldnt go simple minded into breaking into a place. I would use an EMP with an 8 block radius - sophisticated camouflage - and a drone with tranquilizer darts just in case.

Pay five bucks to get a lady dude to knock on his door. As he presents himself bent over, club him from behind.

Just kidding! I'd never advocate violence. It's all in good satire and fun.

Nah... I'm spending 375,000 on the most sophisticated preparations, so I can steal an $800 TV and his pokemon cards.

What's your address?
