Guns three hundred years ago were only slightly more dangerous than a guy with a rock and a mean your mama so fat joke. It isn't hundreds of years it's like 150 years.

I'd rather be shot with a modern hollow point today with modern medicine than shot with ball ammo and get the medical care from 300 years ago, but that's just me.

Literally not even remotely relevant to what the conversation was but go off.

I'd also rather get hit with a semi truck today with modern medicine than get run over by a horse and carriage in 1840.

But I don't see what that has to do with the fact that a semi truck traveling at max speed can level a small building vs a carriage just kinda flattening it's own horses on impact.

I don't see what any of this has to do with anything honestly. But go off.

Yes it is literally just you. You are the only person on earth gaming out situations where you have a choice between getting shot 300 years ago or shot today.
