What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
You might be right - if so, this MENSA candidate has a broken clavicle AND busted eardrums.

What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
First officer grouped a decent size on the windshield, problem was, the driver wasn't behind the group. You can assume he'd ducked down below the window and line of fire. To hit him you'd need to fire through the hood, and penetrate the car console/steering column. Either way he wasn't going anywhere. Even if he was upright, the angle of impact causes significant deflection and even yaw of the round. Think trying to hit a fish underwater. You also might also assume they're using HP's, which are highly unpredictable on hard surfaces vs. standard ball-ammo. Then you have the adrenaline dump after the car chase and your fine motor skills go to shit. Point of the story, hitting anything with a pistol is fucking hard.

It was used (among many applications) to raze cities, as were almost all subsequent incendiary devices.- 'Targeted terror attack' in Boulder
Or look up Greek fire? Look up medieval incendiary tactics, attacks, and material such as tar and pitch.- The Gun Owner’s thread

Always laughed at the scene in The Highwaymen with Costner going into the gun store and walking out with an arsenal of Thompsons, BAR's, 1911's, shotguns, etc.- What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
Seriously, what's the backstory here with this apparent serial killer?- Fighting Fire with Fire: Texas Rangers, Tactical Innovation, and Counterinsurgency Operations in the Mexico City Campaign, 1847-1848
"Los Diablos Tejanos" - The Texas Devils. Empire of the Summer Moon goes deep into the orchestration, implementation, and efficacy of the Rangers against the Comanches and Apaches that had fought conventional army units to a standstill. The above-mentioned Paterson and later Walker pistols, were originally scoffed at by the Army. The Rangers realized they needed the same capabilities to fight Indians from horseback and be able to travel for extraordinary lengths of distance. Revolvers gave them this capability and it changed the face of warfare forever. Comanches were so adept at using their mounted archers they could fire from under the neck of the horse at a full gallop and put dozens of arrows on target to a single musket ball in return, who also had to dismount to fire and reload. The new Walker pistols also had a faster reload, larger powder capacity, and much longer range. Combined with Comanche and Apache tactics, it was game over compared to a rider with just a bow and a lance or Mexican soldiers with cap & ball rifles. The first true "special forces", akin to what the SAS did in N.Africa.- The Gun Owner’s thread
Nice, I'd swap out the sights for something you can see in low light situations, but other than that nothing more iconic that a clean 1911.- Dexter:Resurrection

She has the abilities of a role player and the overinflated ego of a Hollywood actor. A third of her rebounds are from her own damn misses within feet of the rim. It's laughable.- CFP expansion discussion

We did that with an old fridge at the trash pit at the ranch. I was picking crap out of the surrounding trees for hours. Not my finest hour.- Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
That's the vast majority of schools. Very, very few make it to the top, let alone in multiple sports. Thing is, they don't see where they fall in the historical hierarchy of college athletics and think money will solve all their problems. They want so deeply to be relevant they have no perspective. They talk about Texas' arrogance, but look back over the years how they talk down to Tech and the other schools. Then if/when they start to have some success, the school collectively freaks out and puts so much damn pressure on the teams that they invariably implode. Rinse. Wash. Repeat.- Gwenyth Paltrow's Vagina Smell for the masses
I wish I was getting married because THIS is what all the groomsmen would be getting as gifts!- Hide yo livestock, hide yo pets cause they screwwormin' errybody out here (prepare to pay more for meat)
Jesus man, it was a technique used back in the 60's that engendered a complete eradication.. If it's still on the books, then that raises a bigger question.- Hide yo livestock, hide yo pets cause they screwwormin' errybody out here (prepare to pay more for meat)
Back in the day, lot's of ranchers used pine tar on open wounds like that. Especially if it's not near the head/eyes/ears. That's case by case basis treatment. You have to extract the larva and treat the wound. Same on livestock as humans. If it gets bad, they'll go back to fly-vasectomies and release a billion horny male flies to hump the ladies into extinction.- Hide yo livestock, hide yo pets cause they screwwormin' errybody out here (prepare to pay more for meat)

You ate what?- Hide yo livestock, hide yo pets cause they screwwormin' errybody out here (prepare to pay more for meat)
We still have the old dip-tank my g-father built for his livestock on our place. Back in the day they eradicated them with sterile flies that wouldn't produce eggs. They'd radiate the males, box them up, and air-drop them all over the state to release them. This was in the 60's, and my dad would talk about finding the boxes. If you wanted more flies, you'd dig a few out, send them off to the county, and wait. It was Dr. Edward F. Knipling (of Aggy lore) that helped with this. Collapses the population. Come on agroids, you're a damn Ag school - do something about this shit. - 'Targeted terror attack' in Boulder
