Do these idiots understand that hollow point ammunition is designed to stop inside of a person, where full metal jacket ammunition usually goes right through?

Hollow point ammunition is what Joycelyn Elders wished for with “safer bullets.”

They're certainly safer for anyone who happens to be behind the person you're shooting. (Not so safe for the person being hit.)

There were plenty of "idiots" here and the conservative blogosphere having a cow over the purchase of "hollow point rounds" that were "banned by the Geneva Convention" in the hullabaloo over the large DHS and Social Security agency ammo purchases, so this level of cluelessness unfortunately isn't confined to the Left.
