1,000 fps means a bullet travels 50 feet in 0.05 seconds.

2,600 fps means a bullet travels 50 feet in 0.02 seconds.

There is no human alive who could dodge a bullet traveling at either speed.

Lawrence O’Donnell is a moron.

A handgun is much easier to manuver and handle and at close range, such as inside a building, has an advantage.

If you are going to be dodging bullets, the caliber makes little difference at all. Better to get in all your dodging BEFORE the trigger is pulled.

Despite popular mythology to the contrary, NOBODY outruns the shot.

A .22LR slug, lodged in the right place in the human body, and probably has not exited, can maim, severely disable or even kill the target. A .45 merely makes a bigger hole, and usually the exit hole is larger than the entrance wound.

If you really want to see them self lobotomize, start explaining the energy of the fired projectile and how it is dispersed in a target. What about the cavitation inside soft tissue as it relates to the energy and configuration of said projectile. Hollow point Vs. FMJ Vs. “armor piercing”.

Lawrence O'Donnell doesn't have the intelligence to be a moron.

You're giving morons a bad name. He doesn't even rate a "Booger-Eating Moron." The stupid is strong in this one!
