Hypothetical.

Suppose you want to shoot someone. Suppose they are holding a book that, for argument's sake, you know a bullet will not penetrate.

Suppose this book is a normal-sized book.

Will the book deter you?

If your target is holding it over his heart, wouldn't you shoot him in the head, and vice-versa?

The pen may be mightier than the sword, and the book may well be mightier than the bullet. But the body is bigger than the book.

Dumbasses.
