shooting a missile into an occupied vehicle

Somehow this seems to be an over-exaggeration?

The last time I bought ammo at Wal-Mart they were out of missiles.

That’s the standard legal term. If you throw a rock, it is referred to as a missile, for example.

Technically “missile” just means “flying object”. The Bible, for instance, refers to “the wicked one’s burning missiles”.
