Ill just keep shooting them up. i dont know why u cant shoot with a high caliber bullet if you get hit with a smaller caliber you still could die.

LOL

Carlos Hathcock made a record back on Hill 55 in '66 when he killed a gook like 1,500 yards with a .50 cal MG with a scope on it.

I bet ya more then anything that Marine is using his .50 cal on human targets... war is war... pretty soon we'll be fighting with rubber knifes because rifles/pistols will be banned all together because it's "in-humane". rolleyes:

the best part is that since WWI, none of our enemies adhered to the Geneva Convention: the waffen SS butchered civvies and prisoners whenever they could, the Japs did unspeakable things to civvies and prisoners, the Koreans/Chinese murdered wounded men, I won't even mention the VC. So yeah, if our enemies are a bunch of savages like that I think we can shoot them with whatever is handy.

In That case, lets use .22 cal, supper-high capacity autos.....make 'em suffer. Think the PR would be bad on theat one?

I would think the 5.56 mm is "in-humane". Any of you guys hear the stories about how the M16 round will bounce around in your body? I heard a story about a person who was shot in the chest by an M16 round and then came out of his foot oOo: I'd rather be shot by a larger round that just penetrates by chest and goes out the other side inside of having a bullet stuck in me.

When the Soviets switched to the AK-74 (5.45mm) the Afghans thought they were using poisoned rounds, when in reality it was the round tumbling throughout the body. Of course they didn't have the surgical facilities to open up the wounded and discover that it was the bullet, not poison doing the damage.

anyone know as to why?

I had it posted last night but some fags of course deleted everything from the past 2 months or so

LOL PS..since all of the deletion I have lost over 200 posts rock:

Pwned!

Exactly what stryker said. That's going to be like carrying a 357 magnum into battle, jeez.
