How an 89 year old could hit someone is beyond me.
What's so sick about a .22?

I don't know anything about calibre sizes, so I have no idea.
Because a .22 is so small it's not likely to kill fast, if at all, just cause extreme pain. .22 = one size under 9mm. It's what you use to shoot pidgeons, wallabies and rabits if you want to eat them.

.308 + rabbit = no food for you.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

Uh, yeah, there are a LOT of calibers.
.22 long rifle is a very common small game/target shooting round.  It only generates about 140 ft-lbs of energy.  It is powerful enough to kill, but not very efficiently.  Some calculate that a hit from a .22LR will incapacitate someone about 34% of the time.  Weak, but still effective enough sometimes.

.22 is the diameter in inches. That's how bullets are measured in the US (and elsewhere???)

same diameter round as M16 but with far less propellant

Shooter will survive, but is "too hurt for court"

June 15 (Bloomberg) -- James von Brunn, the white supremacist accused of killing a security guard in an armed assault on the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington last week, is unable to appear in court because of the injuries he sustained in the incident, a judge said.

Von Brunn, 88, is in critical but stable condition, U.S. Attorney Nicole Waid said at a hearing today in federal court in Washington. U.S. Magistrate Judge John Facciola adjourned the matter for a week to see if von Brunn’s condition improves.

They should drag his ass into the court room whether he's fit enough for it or not.

It just gets weirder and weirder..

WASHINGTON – Authorities say they found child pornography on a computer belonging to a white supremacist charged with shooting and killing a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.

In a document filed Wednesday, FBI officials say they found the material on a computer seized last week from the Annapolis, Md., apartment where 88-year-old James von Brunn lived.
