unless your protecting yourself against someone with an Ak-47 that is =)Assault weapons should only be supplied to the military. A nine millimetre for personal protection - sure, whatever, but an AK-47? No human being will ever need an AK-47 for "personal protection".
Wanna run that by me again?Brim said:Apparently my girlfriend is friends with a guy who's girlfriend (right I know) was tutored by this guy. She said that he was a normal very nice person, and that he had mentioned he took medicine. She just didn't realize that it was that kind of medicine. So apparently he really was crazy
I dunno if I'd exactly be fine after 22 rounds of bullets were shot at me, perhaps he way fired at roughly 22 times? Did every bullet hit him?Walmart Security said:One of the people who got shot was my friends friend. She told me he got shot 22 times and hes gonna be fine.
Amazing luck if you ask me.
QFT, but really we (in Australia) have the second highest level teen suicide (ratio wise I think) in the world last I checked- and we've only had like 1 school shooting ever (I think [?], and it was with a crossbow [man we are bad arse], and no one died)Avenger said:...22 bullets from an AK-47? Yeah, I call bull****. If someone gets shot 22 times, they die. There's just not enough of them to save when the paramedics arrive. A single rifle bullet can kill a man, and usually permanently injures them (often severely). 22 rifle bullets would be too much of a shock for the body's system, and it'd shut down, regardless of the severity of the injuries.
That was my reaction to it.. i still find it hard to believe, I'll ask her again and make sure that he wasnt HIT 22 times, just fired at. Either way though.. she said itAvenger said:...22 bullets from an AK-47? Yeah, I call bull****. If someone gets shot 22 times, they die.

So it was an AK47? And yeah thats exactly what i thought? i didnt feel like talking to her, so i kinda just got off after that. I'll ask her for details, because for one, im sure that someone gettin shot 22 times would've been on the news, and two.. im sure he wouldnt be ok. The torso is littered with organs, theres no way he got shot and lived there unless he was far away or something.john_volkov said:sory for qft but any bullet in the back could easly hit a vital orgam , if just one bullet hit the liver , or the hearth or any other vital organs instant kill from a ak 47 bullet,on topic , I think guns sould had never been made sould never existed , the Sword and arrows sould still be here , and it will be less killing(ideea for shooter USE GOD DAMN SNIPERS)
Maybe he had kevlar or something? lawl.Walmart Security said:So it was an AK47? And yeah thats exactly what i thought? i didnt feel like talking to her, so i kinda just got off after that.

Hah yea thats gotta be it...Dzamija said:Maybe he had kevlar or something? lawl.
I was joking lol.....Avenger said:Kevlar does not protect from rifle fire. Kevlar protects from handgun fire. An AK-47 would tear right through that pretty layer of kevlar. To protect oneself from high velocity bullets, ceramic or some kind of metal (steel, titanium) is required beneath the kevlar.
I'm going to assume your friend was high/drunk, and had no idea what he/she was talking about. 22 bullets will kill you.
Anyway, I still feel that no matter what, assault weapons should not be available to the public. Most bulletproof vests are useless versus an assault rifle or similar. If no one supplied the general public with these guns, it would be easier for the police to track down the illegal sellers.
Hell, cheap, easily available weapons like the AK-47 should be destroyed when confiscated. They're too old fashioned for modern military combat anyway.
The bit in bold is the stupidest thing I've ever heard, you think if guns werent invented there'd be less killing? Instead you'll read in the newspaper "Teenager wil samurai sword cuts his way through 88 students" what's the difference, aside from Quentin Tarantino suing the family of the teenager for stealing his ideas from Kill Bill, not much else.john_volkov said:sory for qft but any bullet in the back could easly hit a vital orgam , if just one bullet hit the liver , or the hearth or any other vital organs instant kill from a ak 47 bullet,on topic , I think guns sould had never been made sould never existed , the Sword and arrows sould still be here , and it will be less killing(ideea for shooter USE GOD DAMN SNIPERS)
