Yeah really...
People forget that bullets have force. It's not just a clean penetration through flesh. I read a report of a woman who was shot in the head and survived. She said it felt like someone took a hammer and hit her as hard as he could with it. He comes swinging at you with a knife, you pop him once in the head, once in the chest, and some in the knees for good measure, he's not going to pursue the attack any further.

My relative had to shoot herself 3 times before she died. Don't trust bullets, trust bullet placement.

House robber has a knife on you, you have a .45.
The robber will kill you 10 times before you shoot him
Guns are the worse close range weapon ever...
Knives on the other hand cuts veins instead of perforating and never runs out of bullets.
I would go for a knife or a bat before I grab a gun.
this truly is the dumbest statement I've ever read
Yeah wtf?
He took the "21 Foot Rule" and over it, grafted his own shit logic.
I still have no idea why he would choose a bat or any blunt object which requires momentum (space) to use effectively in the apparently very closed quarters he's talking about. .

Thats a good rule of thumb, but there are many people who take bullets in the head, neck, and everywhere else, and survive.
The more general rule would be:
Don't trust bullets, bullet placement, anyone or anything.

Dr. Myco said: your bedroom awoken from a peaceful sleep by someone breaking into your home. You confront the robber, he pulls a knife on you and you have no choice but to subdue him. You grab your favored weapon what is it and what do you do with it.
Mine is a flanged mace and as I grab it the robber gives a strange deer-in-headlights look right before the poor bastard gets cracked in the side.
This has always been a funny thought to me and just wanted a fun way to share it with the community, let the ideas run wild 
I get my Benelli M2 and unload on the sorry C-sucker that breaks into my home.
