    I spent a fair bit of time in Hemet in my youth.

    A man has every right defend his castle and a .22 will probably get it done 99% of the time. No AR needed until the Zombie Appocolypse occurs.

    While most times just the display of a firearm will do but if you want to run with a .22LR it's your life.

    Don't get me wrong: I'm not saying a .22LR pistol is the ideal weapon for home defense. But it can still kill a man plenty dead and has long been popular with hit men has it not? Once I was shooting 00 buck at watermelons in the woods near where @puppylove_sugarsteel resides. Picked up a cheap .22 semi auto pistol in the same session and almost felt that in the middle of the night getting out of bed I'd stand a better chance grabbing a .22 just popping off 10 rounds into a burglar vs getting the scatter gun deployed quickly.

    All this said, I am not an expert and probably full of shit here.

    The poor intruder was on parole at the time, so obviously Mass Incarceration caused this.

    I wish that guy had burglarized that batshit crazy Scientology prison thing they have in Hemet instead. Don't mean to be too anti-religious, but Scientologists are fucking nuts.

    Rule of thumb is use the largest caliber you can control and hit with. Of course that changes with training and experience.

    da fuq?

    Then Von Sagmeister got their .357 magnum and shot the man a number of times.

    The suspect, Dechawn Wallace, a 27-year-old Moreno Valley man, eventually escaped but was arrested after he showed up at Riverside University Health System Medical Center in Moreno Valley, where he was treated for several non-life-threatening gunshot wounds, police said.

    So .454 Casull right? .44 Mag is a little light IMO.
