    The test data isn't free, and I'm not going to pay for it.

    they fired a .22-callibre spring-loaded airgun into the left-hand chest walls of the "porcine cadavers"
    Out of 10 shots, six would have been lethal or potentially lethal, with nine of them penetrating the chest wall to an average of 10.6cm.
    these contemporary weapons are very much able to cause a lethal injury at five or 10 metres
    The article is meaningless.

    I ate 10 biscuits, six would have been lethal or potentially lethal, with nine of them easily capable of blocking an airway (one missed my mouth).

    Just wait until they get a load of Airsoft....those guys go out and delibrately shot each other with airguns.....And while some are plastic BB a lot are air guns that fire lead pellets/balls.....

    Mind you they are probably trying to justify their jobs as reporters (not the doctors) so they dont get downsized with the reat of them when attention moves for TV to other media.......(Too soon????)

    Some one on here should get them on a pig hunt with them, bail a shitty boar, and get them close with air rifle, then call the dogs off. One in the eye should slow it up!

Overall, half of equestrian injuries occurred in those under the age of 19 years.

    8 years and 16 fatalities,either we need to reduce the number of horses in private hands or drastically restrict access to them. Who needs a Horse anyhow?

    While I don't disagree those issues do not fit with the current agenda.
