A bit of a correction to my last post: If the dude dies or his health is seriously compromised by the SHOTGUN BLAST TO THE FACE, a grand jury WILL convene to assess the matter...but again, unless the two other conditions I listed above are met, the chances of Cheney actually getting charged with a felony are probably remote.
The "he was drunk" theory is catching on:

well ne moron knows that birdshot from a 28 gauge shotty will do nothing at 30 yards but give u a few scratches...no way will it go thru a vest, ribs, tuff rib muscles, thru the bag around the heart and into the heart...thats more like 10 feet...
a defining attribute of a government is that it has a monopoly on the legitimate exercise of violence...

Indeed. That's why no one ever shoots a bird from more than 90 feet away.Freakaloin wrote:well ne moron knows that birdshot from a 28 gauge shotty will do nothing at 30 yards but give u a few scratches...no way will it go thru a vest, ribs, tuff rib muscles, thru the bag around the heart and into the heart...thats more like 10 feet...

I will. I've been peppered before, it doesn't do anything. Not even break the skin. At 100 feet away it's a little more painful than having rice thrown at you.riddla wrote:pedoloin, I'm willing to go buy a 28 gauge and drive to Texas if you're willing to stand 90 feet away and let me shoot you.
It's not buck shot from a 12-gauge fer chrissake.
If you're 90 feet away when you shoot, you might have a 50/50 chance of killing one. And that's a bird with hollow bones, not a human in clothes and a hunting vest.Nightshade wrote:Indeed.

i was shot with a 12 gauge from about 15 yards...well i caught 3 pellets...they didn't go in to far...a 28 gauge is about 4 times the pussy of a gun...and yes i would let someone shoot me from 30 yards with a 28 guage....we used to shoot each other with them all the time...
