i said stop, not kill. you're also free to buy a gun that carrier larger bullets with more stopping power. i'm also going to need some stats on how many self defense situations are multiple people on one.
I immediately edited my post to say stop, but you'd already quoted it. I meant to say stop and not kill, but often the two are synonymous. Im exhausted from not sleeping in24+ hours.
By stop I mean they fall down. You can't shoot to kill. That's illegal and it's murder. You're right in that they are two very different things. In fact shots can sometimes stop someone but not kill them, and others can kill them but not stop them. Many gun shyts to the leg are fatal (femoral artery) but don't top anyone. Other shots to the stomach area will drop people fast but are often survivable.
A lot of people attacking also have severe adrenaline dumps, and it can take several rounds before someone even realizes they are shot. Not to mention that someone can be shot and still shooting at you or stabbing you.
No one that's ever had to fight for their life on combat or in a. self-defense situation has ever said afterwards that they wished they had less ammo.
