An AR-15 designed for children shocks even the most jaded gun-control advocates

[Atticus]

13. About 20 years ago, an abused wife in a small southern Illinois town got slapped around

one last time. When her abuser went to work the next day, she went to the new Wal-Mart and purchased a cheap bolt action .22 caliber rifle and a 50-round box of .22 long rifle cartridges.

When her husband got home he found she had locked herself into the master bedroom in their mobile home. Enraged, he easily kicked in the door and found her in the far corner of the room pointing a rifle at him. As he walked toward her, his last words were "Bitch, you ain't brave enough to shoot me!"

She shot him once. He died instantly. She called the police and sat outside on the steps until they arrived. Her husband was "pronounced" on the scene.

Any gun owner who says a .22 long rifle round is "safe" or "non-lethal" is a LIAR---period, full stop.
