Shooting off a kneecap controls the mobility just fine.

Shooting at the kneecap is stupid. Recommending it is even more stupid.

A statement that stupid on FreeRepublic is deserving of any personal insult that it earns.

shooting at the knees is something the cops should be doing more, they're trained, there's more of them, they're bigger, stronger...

but this woman who appeared to be much smaller than the animal attacking had little choice...point the gun straight on and hope the animal gets the message...

I congratulate her...
