FACTS ABOUT GUNS AND GETTING SHOT

ON AVERAGE, 32 PEOPLE ARE MURDERED

EVERY DAY.

IN ARIZONA IT IS LEGAL FOR ANY CITIZEN TO CARRY

A GUN BUT IT IS ILLEGAL TO CARRY NUN CHUCKS

ALTHOUGH YOUR CHANCES OF GETTING SHOT ARE

LESS THAN THE MEDIA WOULD HAVE YOU BELIEVE.

HOW WOULD IT FEEL? WELL, IT DEPENDS WHO YOU

ASK, BUT MOST ACCOUNTS DESCRIBE THE FIRST

SECOND AFTER A GUN WOUND AS SHOCK. AS IN

YOU DON'T FEEL ANYTHING. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

DEPENDS ON WHERE YOU WERE SHOT BUT MOST

PEOPLE DESCRIBE THE INITIAL FEELING AS BURNING.

AFTER THAT, THINGS WILL REALLY BEGIN TO DEPEND

ON THE SITUATION. IF YOU HAVE BEEN SHOT IN A

CRITICAL REGION THEN YOU WILL MOST LIKELY

PASS OUT

IN THE CITY OF KENNESAW, GEORGIA, EVERY

HOUSEHOLD IS LEGALLY REQUIRED TO HAVE A GUN

THE NAZIS BUILT THE LARGEST GUN EVER.

IT WEIGHED OVER 1300 TONS AND

COULD HIT TARGETS

23 MILES AWAY

GETTING SHOT IN THE LEFT SIDE OF THE HEART

TYPICALLY CAUSES MORE BLEEDING THAN GETTING

SHOT IN THE RIGHT SIDE. IF YOU GET SHOT IN THE

LIVER, IT'S REVERSED. THE RIGHT SIDE USUALLY

CAUSES MORE BLEEDING

JAILERS USED TO CARRY KEYS THAT DOUBLED AS

MINI GUNS AS A LAST LINE OF DEFENCE

AS YOU MAY HAVE EXPECTED, HIGH TRAJECTORY

BULLETS FROM RIFLES WILL DO THE MOST DAMAGE.

HOWEVER, SLOWER BULLETS FROM PISTOLS TEND

TO WOBBLE MORE, WHICH CAN ALSO LEAD TO

MORE DAMAGE
