Slingshots were/still are legitimate weapons and hunting tools, this fuckin' hero is bringing it back!

Yea this isn’t some cute home alone stuff. Slingshots we’re used for war once upon a time. Sure this was probably not quite that powerful, but it’s enough to cause legitimate injuries. If he had connected with the dudes eye, he’d probably lose it

He inflicted enough damage for the police to be able to ID the scumbag immediately. My cousin is really into slingshots and has a few really fancy setups. He has a pocket shot that's the most impressive. He can launch arrows with it and it's really effective actually. He even has this speed loader on one of them and he's super quick with follow up shots.

The weapon David used was a sling) rather than a slingshot, which is even more powerful.

People often forget how much damage a slingshot is capable of inflicting
Especially in the right hands

That was how I got rid of pests on the farm. Much quieter than a rifle and just as clean and efficient.

It's actually really badass that he made two perfect shots with a sling shot. Good for him. He saved his sister with a freaking slingshot and that's just as badass as it gets.

He drew back on that slingshot and, through gritted teeth, he said I’ve been waiting 13 years for this

That looks like a wrist rocket. I had one as a teen and used ball bearings from a local auto-wrecker for ammo. It was crazy powerful.

That kid is cool and all, but can we take a second to talk about this news person's green 80's casual professional shoulder pad polo sweater? I mean wtf, it's awesomely bad!
