Re: National Weather Service Follows DHS In Huge Ammo Purchase

Well a .22 to the back of the head is a lot cheaper... But then gummint isn't known for efficiency.

Nor their proficiency in aiming, if they figure they'll need ~600 rounds per agent next year for training. The .357 provides a much better margin of close-in error. And I think you did state in another post that the larger caliber bullets are more environmentally sound since they tie up more noxious lead...

.22, .223, what's a few thousandths? Close enough for Gubberment work.

I like the "maximum organ damage" meme though. I guess they're less effective against pianos? Do the churches and ballparks of the US have more to fear now?

As Harry Caray used to say about Wrigley Field's instrument: "When you're out of Hammond you're out of organ!"

A play on Hamm's Beer...
