Between Biden talking about 9mm "blowing the lung out of the body" (as opposed to .22LR), and Poly talking about the .223 round "going through walls", it makes me wonder how extremely distorted these people's perception of guns could possibly be. These are people that purport to support the ownership of "hunting" rifles. Do they think we're out there dropping deer with airsoft pellets? How can you be OK with a bullet being able to kill a moose, but be alarmed that it can penetrate drywall? I don't understand.

The extent of these people's experience with guns is seeing Jame Bond shoot down a helicopter with a PPK.
