   You use the most effective method available to you to stop a "perceived" direct threat…that again would be real guns and real bullets.

   
   
   Handguns are no more effective or reliable at immediate incapacitation.

   Nobody was ever arguing that a beanbag is more damaging than a regular shotgun shells.

   Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Much more likely to happen than if you took a hollow point to the chest or head…that's kind of the point you seem to be missing.

   
   No it isn't. You are factually incorrect. That's the point you seem to be missing.

   That's why I teach my kids to keep their hands where cops can see them.

   
   A beanbag round is literally a shotgun load.

    The fact is that the matrix is much less real than reality itself, which is more of a super matrix

    Immediate subject: whether a beanbag round would have been a viable response option.
    
    Answer: yes.

    Try firing a gun accurately when you just took a beanbag to the chest or head.
    
    Actually it would be harder and more immediately so due to the blunter impact. Vs you reacting to tissue damage (not even guaranteed depending on whether drugs are in use and other biochemical and psychological factors)

    Originally posted by jerryb Bro I've killed lots of critters in my life and shot placement is what matters. It's common knowledge the average civilian is a better shot than the average cop. Yeah getting hit in the arm or leg may not stop them but a couple center mass will.

    
    Read the document. You are simply wrong. There is no reliable means for handguns to incapacitate by tissue damage. Humans are psychologically conditioned to fall on being shot, that's it.
    
    You also seem to be lying about having shot a bunch of critters. Otherwise you would already know if you don't place your shots well a buck can drag for miles with half a dozen 7mm in its lungs.

    BTW…my mag holds 15 rounds…I don't stop after 1…nor do the cops.

    
    Nice and if the guy was about to fire back anyway neither does he.
    
    I.e. reliable stopping power of handguns as a counterfactual against the use of less lethal weapons in the same situation is a myth.

    The cops and military didn't choose bullets over beanbags just because.

    We weren't even remotely discussing what the military or cops should generally use.
    
    Just whether or not your stupid bot reply makes any sense in the specific context of extremely time limited use-of-force decisions.

    Simply does not matter, not enough tissue damage for reliable instant incapacitation inside standard target zones.
    
    The simple fact is that the intended lethality of handguns is completely irrelevant for arguments about time limited decisions.
    
    It's brought up every time in this exact brand of discussion by internet retards, it's basically part of the "script" of this stupid argument and it's a bad part of that script.
    
    I am happy to see these scripts at our 1000000 times on the internet, I consider it part of the soul of the internet and of forums, but this is a bad and cringe line that is way past its expiration date.
