a bullet loses velocity from the moment the round leaves the barrel.

The problem is that the aliens invading the USA aren’t arriving from other worlds in a vehicle you can shoot down with a space age weapon.

They are arriving here by walking across the border or flying in on commercial airliners.

Do you think a guy like this will be permitted to operate or maintain the railgun?

I highly recommend this video. It’s short, but it’s a good view.

“Anytime you have a projectile screaming in at extremely high speeds—kilometers per second—the sheer kinetic energy of that projectile is awesome,” Mr. Work said. “There are not a lot of things that can stop it.”
