TALLY-HO, LADS!!!
AS THE FOUNDING FATHERS INTENDED!
He did the meme!
If you don't know, lefties say the 2A only applies to muskets, not to weapons tech in 2024 ... just like the 1A only applies to parchment and quills and not iPhones or something like that.
To help them find their prefrontal cortexes, the above meme was born, and it has finally come full circle to fruition.
I bet this burglar in Vermont wishes he'd been hit by NATO 5.56 instead of a .54-caliber musket ball!
The incident took place just after 11:30 p.m., when the homeowner encountered three armed individuals attempting to force entry into his residence through a locked door. Reacting to the imminent threat, the homeowner opened the door and fired his muzzleloader rifle at one of the intruders, effectively stopping the attempted break-in.
Yeah, no duh. Have you seen what the flintlock rifle does to a body? It creates a fist-sized cavity and then the lead ball and its wadding just rest on your organs while you bleed out.
Gun guru Mike Jones (AKA Garand Thumb) showed just how deadly muskets are. Check out the first 5 seconds of this timestamped video:
Okay, okay... that's actually what 9mm does (wink).
Let's look the ballistic dummies. Check the difference between the Garand Thumb comparison between a typical flintlock rifle:
And this video of the most popular AR-15 caliber, 5.56 (which politicians tell me will blow the body to pieces):
Like I said: I bet that Vermont lad wishes this guy was sporting an AR-15 instead!
(I bet his buddies were happy the homeowner had to reload though.)
The wounded suspect was found in a neighboring yard and subsequently transported to a medical center, where he was listed in critical condition. The other two suspects fled the scene before law enforcement arrived. Vermont State Police have been actively investigating the case, executing a search warrant at the residence, conducting interviews, and following various leads. The homeowner has been cooperating with the investigation. As of now, no arrests have been made in connection with the incident.
BET THEY'LL THINK AGAIN ABOUT VISITING MR. "AIM-SMALL, MISS SMALL"!
