Thankfully the gun had no bullets from what is seen in the video. (If you look at the gun you can see it was pulled back and had no bullet to chamber so it stayed locked, this is similar to the action of some guys that have magazine loaded)
The principal was shot in the leg. Also, it looks like the student is squeezing off shots when his hand is pinned. The gun has the slide back when he drops it because that’s what happens when you’ve fired all the rounds.
(Sadly that means none of the bullets went straight through, which tells me it was likely a 22lr handgun, otherwise we would have seen rounds pierce the back)
Many people state a 22 is most deadly for that simple fact, it often has the power to enter, but not to leave, so it richochets inside of a skull or ribcage causing more damage than immediately exiting

This is a myth and one made up by people who don’t know how firearms work. A 22lr is not going to do more damage to someone than a large caliber round… otherwise we’d be using 22lr to fight wars.
It’s why it’s not legal to kill anything but small game with it as well. Because it’s inhumane to try and kill anything bigger than a squirrel with a 22lr.
I didn’t say it would do more damage because it was a smaller caliber, I said it would do more damage because it didnt exit. But you fabricated a scenario to say my statement was a myth.
A 22 is a dangerous weapon that can definitely kill somebody and needs to treated according to The Rules just like any other firearm.
What you said about bouncing around inside skeletal structures has no basis in reality, though. I’m a non-gun-nut American with some firearm experience, but my supposed knowledge doesn’t matter in a world where you can watch 100 different youtube channels dedicated to shooting a variety of objects with a variety of calibers.
You might be thinking in the right direction, though, about situations where a bullet does more damage when NOT passing all the way through because it has dumped all its energy into the target along with expanding/fragmenting. Consider what happens when one of those youtubers shoots through water. Usually the smaller handguns like 22 or 9mm get decent penetration while high-powered rifles with multiple times the kinetic energy and momentum fall short of those. But because of the rapid energy dump you get other effects like a high splash.
The gun was definitely empty when he dropped it; but it looks like there’s shell casings ejected during the struggle. Several land on the floor, bottom of the top camera view. At least one moves along with the gun when it’s kicked away.
He fired it until empty while pinned to the bench.
I’ve always fantasized about this, just without the gun
ugh please tackle me Principal Schoemern

… if you read anything on this reports are the principle was shot, what are you even going on about here?
No I didn’t read the reports I watched the video showing it was empty at the time it hit the ground. That really sucks he was shot

Absolutely when all rounds are gone that’s true.

It literally doesn’t bounce around and cause more damage. Period.
