They present this as "What really happened" with their patented slow motion, super-magnified, graphically gory, action sequences that end with blood spurting out of the victims neck opposite the entrance wound.

No one says, "That's idiotic."

Uh, someone needs to tell them their physics suck. 400ft/sec is over 270 miles/hr. Faster than any hurricane has ever gusted.

Plus a 9mm has a velocity starting around 880ft/sec (on the low end) when fired. 400 ft/sec wouldn't be as damaging.

For further reference a pellet gun is about 400-500 ft/sec.

While a Category 5 hurricane has winds of 183ft/sec.

So... if this is the case, and an unfired bullet struck a woman after toppling out of a coffee can, killing her... Wouldn't pebbles, rocks and other debris be killing people in the hundreds during a hurricane?

I just think these goons are running out of prots.

This 'dramatization' just proves that we need a few MORE laws to regulate behaviour so that ALL of US can be SAFE. One new law that would protect MANY of us is to ban all firearm OWNERS from their HOMES during a HURRICANE. That would solve this problem. < /sarcasm >
