“If guys like Mr. Rogers can convince people that there’s no defense against body armor, it makes those people more conditioned to roll over to government tyranny out of helplessness. I at least suspect there’s a possibility that such folks are shills.”
Were you born a paranoid freak, or did you spend years becoming one?
You and your gun shop ninjas are stupid as well as paranoid. Ever shot a deer? Did the deer get blown off its feet by a 30-06?
The steel plates in the video were basically steel skillets, free hanging and shot at the lower lip for maximum effect. Did any of them flip over? If a 44 magnum (which I shoot regularly) doesn’t even flip a free-hanging skillet over, do you REALLY think it will blow a bad guy off his feet?
Do you think the FBI trains their agents not to count on someone WITHOUT armor going down because they are stupid? Are you familiar with the Miami shootout that led the FBI to adopting the 10mm?
I can’t stop you from living in a fantasy world, but I wish you wouldn’t spew your ballistic baloney on FR...
I also guess you know more than LAPD officers who've in real life gone up against bad guys (have you?), I guess you know more than firearms trainers with former Special Forces experience, all of whom would laugh in your face.
No, I wasn't born a paranoid freak. But the older I get and the more I see on forums such as this one, the more I realize that, just like there really and truly are freaks who will take a gun into a theater and start shooting, there really are political agents of disinformation. Because I know for a fact that you are dead wrong and that what you claim has the ultimate result of convincing people that guns won't protect them, I can't help but be sensible enough to at least consider the possibility that you're a shill.
