My point was that some reason needs to be applied to the 2nd Amendment debate and I appreciate your comment. Actually, I am light tan and I have good credentials in science.

That was certainly McVeigh's reason for having it and the patrolman very likely could have been a victim of it if he hadn't noticed the concealed weapon under McVeigh's jacket. “cop killer” is not an AP bullet but it is the nickname for a Black Talon bullet, a particularly soft nosed bullet, designed to do the maximum damage on impact.

That pretty much covers every caliber out there! Seriously, that media hyperbole is just that. Any bullet can be lethal, body armor or not. I really wish people would stop spreading ignorant myths about "cop killer bullets". Cop killer bullets? That pretty much covers every caliber out there! Seriously, that media hyperbole is just that.

The observations I used are anecdotal evidence and do not provide a general proof. They are a small sample of what I have observed in my life and are significant events chosen to illustrate that recent attempts to remove some of the restrictions on gun ownership and use may be a bad idea. I know many gun owners who are fine men and all those laws are there for the few who aren't. Thanks for your comment.

Most hunting rifle calibers will penetrate a police officer's protective vest. There are over 20 thousand laws on the books in the US dealing with the restriction of firearms both in usage and ownership. The tiny fraction of gun owners that you personally know do not reflect the attitudes and beliefs of most gun owners. As a science teacher you should know when you are dealing with a statistically valid data set. Regards, Patrick There are 80 million gun owners in the US and 250 million guns.
