Vlad Magic Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 15 hours ago, Sertse said: That's completely untrue though. A .223 round is designed to ricochet within the body. The actual bullet is the exact same size as a .22 round. It's designed for accuracy. The actual casing of the round is irrelevant, FMJ is the standard for any type of cartridge. The idea it can go through multiple targets and is designed that way is absolute nonsense. A handgun can't kill multiple people despite having the exact same mechanism and usually larger rounds? I get that your argument is politically charged etc but the things you're saying about firearms are just plain wrong. Not strictly true without you specifying wether you are talking military ammunition or hunting ammunition. It’s incorrect to state “a .223 round is designed to ricochet around the body”. Some are and some are not. Military .223 REM or more commonly referred to as 5.56mm yes. It’s better to wound the guy you are shooting at because it takes 2 of his buddies to move him. At least that was the theory during war. Hunting .223 REM are designed for maximum fragmentation. Specifically penetration first with a very hard ballistic tip then a lead core which fragments on impact to bone causing the round to break up into bits causing as much tissue and organ damage as possible thus killing the animal you are hunting. “.223 REM are the exact same size as .22 round” Again not strictly true. Yes they are the same diameter but that is the only similarity. I can’t be bothered going into rimfire, centerfire, magnum rimfire, etc etc etc however the number of variations in design, size (excluding diameter obviously) bullet weight, and application is vast. Really vast!! Anyway I digress. Americas constitutional laws regarding the right to bare arms is the problem. Always has been the problem and will continue to be the problem for years to come.

Assume you’d agree that the same punishment should be doled out to everyone else there that night? AC’s post 2 above is spot on. It’s bizarre that people are letting political leanings colour their opinion on this. As I see it, it’s a pretty simple case legally. Should he have been there? Morally and practically speaking, no. Legally, no reason why not. Was he carrying an illegal weapon? Legally no. Did he murder anyone? Legally no. I’m not sure I get all the outrage. Dipshit idiot goes looking for trouble amongst a wave of other dipshit idiots. Gets attacked, reacts in self defence and a bunch of people died. Everything about that night was avoidable, but laying sole responsibility one one kid because it fits your political narrative is pathetic. The bit in bold is the only thing I agree with - he should never have had the responsibility of policing a potential riot zone with a gun when he was basically a kid. He's not trained how to police, how to diffuse confrontations or descalate a situation. He's a kid. His presence lead to the shootings and deaths. What a basket-case country but he'll now be elevated as a conservative, right-wing hero because he got to shoot the type of people they are also itching to shoot. Fits their "political narrative" after all, the same narrative that allows shooters to claim self-defense because they felt threatened by a kid in a hoody carrying a packet of skittles. The US should never have changed the law that stated self-defense only applies once you've tried to extricate yourself from the threatening situation.

(Although he'd never have fired as quickly with a bolt action so there would definitely have been a different outcome....probably including serious injury to himself) He simply should not have been there and he escalated a situation by doing so. Just my opinion that he should face some sort of punishment. Can you imagine if Scotland had a law where a 6th year high school pupil could turn up at a protest march with a semi automatic rifle? Their laws are ludicrous. So should everyone with a gun that was at the protest be punished? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares what I think.....they'll just keep killing each other because the 2nd amendment says they can collect as many guns as they want and put bullets in their trolley at Walmart beside nappies and canned cheese. I've already said.....its the laws that are the real villains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 This whole thing is a tragedy. Not only because of the deaths, but because of the so different opinions expressed, including my own. From basically the start I have had a problem with a seventeen year old who illegally obtained a lethal firearm, then was filmed carrying it in a ready manner while walking in an area of hostility. He and his companion in the film I watched gave an impression of being ready to react with weapons if required. This boy also boldly stated that he knew the area well because he drove through it regularly, he then went on to state that he was driving without a drivers license. So far we have two breaches of the law committed by he. He then relates things he has done with, Police Departments, Fire Departments, and First Aid Training. There are suggestions that these courses were not to the level he would have people believe. If I read the evidence correctly he was given a responsibility to provide security at a car lot. His duties did not include fire fighting or administering first aid. He left the location he was assigned to and states he did so to fight a container fire, being in possession of a fire extinguisher. He then went from there into the active scene of a demonstration or protest where persons of different views were taking advantage of free speech and gathering. He stated he was a Medic and was there to assist anyone needing attention. He became involved with people who were apparently of different opinion to he, there was conflict and people died a a result of shots from his weapon. A Court case ensued and was televised, I have seen lots of Court procedures on television, the Judges conduct was the worst I can recall seeing, his actions gave some a feeling that he was advocating for the defence. A Jury considered the evidence and procedure, and passed a verdict of Not Guilty to all charges, he is a free man, and I accept that. Where I now have difficulty is the political opportunitism by some, particularly Fox News to make this young man a poster boy for anti Democratic policies. I have sympathy for the young man because opportunists will now take advantage of his propensity to want to be a hero, and will use that to their own advantage. The whole thing is a sad experience for the United States, and their negative impression to many other countries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s in the same caliber family but completely different in size and shape and characteristics. The Hornet and WMR for example are closest to .223 REM being supersonic. The LR being subsonic doesn’t have ballistic tip whereas Hornet and WMR do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read all these things and I ponder my own experience. Of course in civilised Canada never had anything like that. But there were occasions when we had information about proposed demonstrations or protests that that may incur civilm disobedience, and or property damage. I would delegate a couple of men to deal with informants, get what information and intelligence as I could, and the proceed to conceive a plan, manpower needs, and what laws may be contravened, and how these would be dealt with either by arrest or summons. If possible a meeting would be arranged between organisers and my staff, an understanding developed about what would be allowed and what not, of course 100% agreement was unlikely,but a path to conversation had been developed. Basically the important thing seemed to be manpower,manpower, and more manpower. None of these things seemed to be present in the discussed incident. It would seem to me an old former leader but now just another old fart with the in my days rapport, that what had once seemed so simple has become an insurmountable problem.

I am sorry but I cannot under any circumstance see a cop putting himself in the circumstances Rittenhouse did.. In the kid we are discussing someone who I believe has what can be a harmless mental condition, but in his case has proven his desire to be someone and to be noticed. A cop with again my uneducated guesses as to his mental condition is unlikely to get through the employment screening. I cannot even imagine a cop getting himself in that predicament.
