I appreciate both your joke and, most especially, your username.

Jfc I hope you're not serious lol. These are self-defense rounds, meant to break apart inside the attacker or intruder, so you're not shooting through walls, potentially killing people on the other side.

Part of a defense training class includes, "know your target and what's behind it" for a reason

If the options are "Phillips head fucks shit up" and something not being fucked up by Phillips, assume the thing is about to get fucked.

But she got a soo big eh tool!

Femoral of the story

A friend of mine got heart surgery through his inner thigh. That artery is huge, so it provides easy access to the heart without needing to go near any organs. It still creeps me out to think about it, on the other hand it is pretty awesome that's technologically feasible and provides a much safer procedure with a shorter recovery period.

there's a similar one on your arm. the one they give you IVs in. fun fact i was getting an IV removed and i had a fairly new RN (first year on the floor but damned competent. third day on my room and we'd gotten to become friendly. i'm pretty sure she had a family member who'd had a port and had been their caregiver or something) and she had just popped the catheter out of my AC. she pressed down with the cotton ball with her other thumb and... missed. GOOOOSH GOOOOSH GOOOOSH GOOOOSH goes my antecubital all over the room and she turns green. runs out of the room as i slowly and calmly (because i am high as balls on the good hospital painkillers) reach over and put some pressure on. about 30 seconds later she comes back in with a big gauze, i have the bleeding stopped and there were five great big red streaks all across the room. And her now that i think about it i am sure i was so embarrassed i couldn't look her in the eye. I think i traumatized that poor woman. You really can't control your instincts until you've been through it once or twice.

I don't know if this helps though...

So I know this is a shitpost, but a pelvic shot is taught by some militaries as part of an alternative failure drill (two shots to the chest, followed by one to the head if they continue to be a threat). Its a larger target than a headshot requires, and is rarely protected by armor. Plus, if you miss, the shot is more likely to hit the ground instead of continuing flight well beyond whoever you were shooting at.

So shitpost or not, its not the worst place to shoot.

The piece of skin between a ball sack and an asshole or the skin between a vagina and an asshole.

Fwiw - the actual name is “perineum”, at least in the US.

It got the name as a play on words. It ain't your asshole and it ain't your balls. If you say 'it ain't' fast it sounds like taint.

If you look closer her finger isn't actually on the trigger.

This is true, we were taught that the "hip box" was a prime target zone for many reasons, body armor being one but also since the pelvic girdle is a main support nexus for musculature, if it is damaged then most of the body is out of commission. Plus, there is a very high likelihood that the femoral artery will be damaged and if so a target is likely to bleed out in a matter of seconds.
