I thought it already was illegal to sell any handgun ammo that would penetrate body armor?

The copy reads like it was written by an eighth-grader.

It’s a 12ga flechette round, been around for years, used by military in Nam for snipers in trees. Flechettes spread but penetrate foliage well.

Thanks Brian.
I reckon I'll stay with my 870 loaded with 00Buck, and aim just below the head.
Wouldn't want to hurt anyone with darts.

Gee Lori, this is just horrible.
But why didn’t you tell us who makes this ammo and in what calibers.
Oh, and just to make sure the readers don’t miss the point, let me stress one more time... “The ad for the ammunition says it shoots dozens of steel darts that cause unbelievable trauma.”
Poor baby. No doubt a victim of the Imperial Federal Schools System.

Try the new .825 handgun ammo. It won't penetrate a vest, but it does have knockdown power.

.44 mag on left and .357 mag on right.

The ammunition is legal, it's just a reminder the dangerous new threats police officers constantly face. I get sooo sick of hearing about threats to the police. They're a lot safer in their jobs than a lot of other professions. Often police work doesn't even make the top ten for dangerous professions, and is always beaten by construction work, landscape work, truck driving, commercial fishing, and electrical work, just to name the few I can remember.
Further who cares? Why should threats to police be any more worrysome than threats to anyone else? Is somehow the death of a convenience store clerk or a cab driver less important than the death of a cop? Do they mean less to their families? Are they second class citizens because they aren't government minions?
I once did the statistics for police work vs an ordinary citizen on both Baltimore and Detroit. It turned out that you had a higher chance of getting murdered if you weren't a cop in both of these places. So for at least Detroit and Baltimore police work was safer than being an average citizen.

I've always respected roofers and the unbelievable sacrifices they make in their line of duty. Way higher on the job mortality list too!
They just don't have enough roofing shows on teevee.

I've always respected roofers ... Did you ever live in a house without a roof?
