However, he certainly can correct me if I'm wrong.

Rocks and sharp sticks have also been very unpleasant since the days of David and Goliath. The Bible is replete with reference to spears and arrows. The ancient Greeks and Romans did quite a bit of damage without firearms.

I wouldn't volunteer to be shot with a .177 caliber pellet pistol either, but that doesn't make it a suitable defense round.
Given my choice between a .22 and a rock or a sharp stick, I'll take my chances with the .22. :tiphat:
