Anonymous Coward User ID: 35055460 United Kingdom 02/24/2013 02:10 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | He is going to be OK. It was a random shooting by unknown black males in a white car. My husband had taken our Chocolate Lab out for a quick walk in the alley before bedtime. A white car pulled up to him, the driver window went down, and my husband was shot 3 times with a BB gun. One BB went through his leather coat and got his upper arm. His arm is bruised and swollen. The police and the ambulance were here at my house. My husband, who has no medical insurance, declined treatment from the Paramedics. Quoting: tiger1 A few minutes after my husband was shot, there was another shooting not too far from here. This is crazy. To see my husband come in the door, out of breath, clutching his arm and saying he had been shot, was like something out of a movie. He was about 1/2 a block down in our alley when he got shot. My husband is physically disabled. He walks slowly, with a limp, and also has emphesema. I hope the police catch these punks. Kneegrahs, again! |

tiger1 (OP) User ID: 6269153 United States 02/24/2013 02:11 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | BB guns can shoot 450/fps and higher. No, it isn't a high power rifle but yes modern BB guns can cause serious damage so lay off the gal. Quoting: TDJ Someone she loves was assaulted so the weapon really isn't the point. The fact that it could have been much more serious has ran thru her mind and I think she has every right to be upset. If you don't like the thread just move on instead of being dicks about it. It had to be at least a co2. It went through a thick leather coat, a thick pile lined sweatshirt, and a regular sweatshirt. My husbands leather coat has a hole in the upper right arm sleeve.

tiger1 (OP) User ID: 6269153 United States 02/24/2013 02:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ... Quoting: tiger1 The BB went through a thick leather coat, a thick pile lined sweatshirt, and a regular sweatshirt. I had a friend shot in the belly by a BB gun years ago. He had to have surgery to remove the pellets. They are making bb guns that are much more powerful than the ones the morons used to play war with. It was a metal BB. When he took his shirt off, it was inside the sleeve. Not really. There are 3 MAIN types of BB guns. Spring, Pump, and CO2. IF it was a hand gun, it was probably CO2 or spring. Both pinch the skin, and can pierce the skin, but aren't lethal. They don't hurt anymore than strong pinch, at worst. A pump rifle can be fairly painful. They haven't really gotten that much stronger these days. There are exceptions of course, but I highly doubt a $300-600 BB gun was used for this. These were punk kids, using a store bought bb gun. I thought the story was overly sensational as well. I'm sure if you started a thread asking for people who've either SHOT people with BB guns, or BEEN shot with them, you'd find a TON of people who have on here. Maybe they didn't have a high dollar one. But they now have electric ones, battery powered, rechargeable, that will put a plastic ball thru a tin can easily.

tiger1 (OP) User ID: 6269153 United States 02/24/2013 02:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sorry a BB can hurt, but it must have scared the shit out of him. He probably thought he was gonna die. He could've had a heart attack. Fuckers do it with paintball guns too and film it. The victim thinks he got shot with a real gun. Quoting: Munsoned I am lucky he didn't go into a breathing attack. He was short of breath, but he maintained. Praise God from Whom all Blessings flow !!! |

Is this some kind of joke? BB gun? We used to shoot cars with our BB guns when we were kids. Kids do dumb things. What was the point of mentioning they were black, where you going somewhere with that? Your husband got scared because of a BB gun!? We also used to have BB gun wars when we were LITTLE kids. I got shot 1/4" from my left eye once, last time I ever did that. My point is though, BBs arent really a threat, lol, unless you are shot in the EYEBALL. My husband was injured, bottom line. Bottom line, would you feel the same if he got a black eye? There is a big differance between a fist and a gun. Praise God from Whom all Blessings flow !!! |
