There is a total epidemic of crazy goung around!

There is one person in this world that scares the crap out of me....and she's 104 years old, 4 foot 3 inches tall, and maybe 98 pounds.  She owned a bar, and did her own bouncing.  She has been known to lash out at people at the nursing home, and has even managed to puncture skin on the target, left several bruises on one person, and broke one persons finger.  She is very opinionated.  I want to let her loose in our governments buildings, including the white house.

She is entertaining to watch on the full moon, when she is at her......best.

Domestic violence calls can be the worst. What people don't realize is that it takes two and the person that's getting the beating is often as whacky as the per person giving it. It's twisted, but victims of it are often put on a pedestal as the victim. It's much more complicated than that. Cops should go in pairs on those calls.

Yep. 
What goes up must come down, right? What goes up: A bullet fired from a Kalashnikov rifle leaves the muzzle traveling faster than 1,500 miles (2414 kilometers) per hour. What comes down: If that bullet is shot straight into the air it would be traveling at about 150 miles per hour (241.4 kilometers per hour) as it falls to the ground -- you can thank air resistance for slowing it down -- and would hit the ground, or your head, with the same amount of energy as if you were struck by a brick (or an anvil) falling from about 4 feet (1.2 meters) above you [source: Matthews]. Bullets falling at 68 mph (109.4 kilometers per hour) easily penetrate the skin, and those that are traveling at least 136 mph (218.9 kilometers per hour) may penetrate bones, as well as cause internal injuries or death [source: Maugh]. The likelihood you'll suffer an accidental injury from a firearm discharge in your lifetime? Just shy of 1 out of 6,000 [source: National Center for Health Statistics].

Dodging bullets shouldn't be your only concern, though. Circumstances such as being struck by lightning (your odds are about 1 in 10,000 in a lifetime), being struck by a meteorite (those lifetime odds are about 1 in 700,000) and being injured by a vending machine (you may be surprised, but vending machines get about two or three of us every year) are also examples of freak accidents, as are events such as Hurricane Katrina and other natural disasters [sources: NOAA, Plait]. Do you know your odds of being injured or killed at an amusement park? We do, and we'll roll out the numbers next, along with how the pros calculate those odds.

In order to penetrate the skin completely, a projectile must be traveling 230 feet per second. That's roughly 157 miles per hour. The standard unit for bullet velocity in the US is feet per second. Elsewhere its meters per second. Feet is a smaller subdivision than meters or miles, so it's more precise without having to us decimal points. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/7304523/
