Prolly NONE from the ones I know!
Close range
00 buckshot
Won’t be much leg left
Be more fun to take out more than one at a time by adding some distance
Yup! It takes 3-4 minutes to bleed out if the wound is a good clean cut! GOOD ADVICE, JOE!
(Sorry to say I had an ARVN solider die in front of my eyes because I got to him to late!)
Israel has been doing that for years. Suppressed Ruger 10-22’s to the leg, I’d prefer the kneecaps. Originally used to take out the dogs when making a raid.
She’s been passed out since 3 o’clock, Benghazi time
Sounds like he’s speaking from near experience, I mean, I mean the thing, isn’t Biden the champ at shooting himself in the foot?
Little toe but only while the suspect is running. No shooting when the suspect is stationary.
OMG - what an idiot.
Yes I’ve heard that. Why is that? Because you’d be lucky to hit anything? I know I would!
I am surprised he did not recommend shooting the knife out of his hand.
LOL! Well, you’re right! We must make it fair for our attackers. ;)

Good for Joe he has the democrat media propaganda activists covering for him.
Night in the ruts...
Even better Joe... run around up behind them and hit them in the back of the head with a padded ball bat so as to prevent any possibility of a concussion. /s
A barefoot boy with shoes on,
stood sitting in the grass.
Along came a bumblebee,
and stung him in the elbow.
Bam! Halt or I’ll shoot. Ah crap, it the other way around isn’t it? Sorry Corn POP.
And could get you killed.
