Bill Burr explains why a 22 caliber pistol is the right gun for home defense

No - it isn't.

But it is better than no gun at all - that, I'll grant you.

Bill Burr isn't the best advocate for gun ownership, but at least he's willing to talk about guns and his experiences with them, unlike most other people in entertainment.

One of my favorite comedians.

Per wiki:

Burr will star in F Is for Family in December 2015 on Netflix. The show, an animated sitcom, will be based around Burr's standup and the absurdity of political correctness. Burr will write and executive produce the series along with Michael Price

Hell yeah

"you know, it was the 80s"

"you can't just explain anything by saying it was the 80s!"

it was ok, but I've since let Youtube cycle through Bill Burr on Conan videos. Good stuff.

The best was when he absolutely trashed the Philly audience. Epicness.

In a less densely populated area- a .45.

Talk to any coroner and he will tell you that .22's are deflected by muscle. They don't have enough velocity to cause much damage barring a central nervous system strike. .22 magnum is a different story.

I have, my friend was a pathologist and medical examiner in a large city, in his 40 years of practice the overwhelming majority of gunshot deaths he observed were cause by the .22. In his words it was the most commonly owned caliber so it was used more than other calibers, and while you my not bleed out and die immediately from its wound you will eventually die without medical treatment.
