But in “looking at a CT scan of one of the mass-shooting victims” from the high school, Sher saw something very different: “The organ looked like an overripe melon smashed by a sledgehammer,” with extensive bleeding.
That’s because the AR-15 is “different,” its bullets traveling “at a higher velocity” and “imparting more than three times the energy” of a typical handgun projectile. Think of it like this: “The bullet from an AR-15 passes through the body like a cigarette boat, traveling at maximum speed through a tiny canal.” |

I hate this flippin' batch of bull-patties. So 5.56mm. rounds do gnarled damage than handgun bulkets. So would a .30-30. So would a .30-'06. So would .270, 7mm, 300 Winmag, , .308, .45-70. OR JUST ABOUT EVERY CENTERFIRE RIFLE CALIBER THERE IS!!
5.56 is a rifle caliber. It is NOT even a remarkably powerful RIFLE CALIBER. I'm not dissing it....I own four M4orgeries myself. But my .30-'06 packs a harder punch, as does my 7.62x51. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
