Just an odd question, but of the million-odd occurrences a year where some exchange occurs with a gun within the US....is there a database that lays out the event and the type of gun used?

I read the news of various states on a frequent basis, and frankly....nine times out of ten when you see a shooting reporting....it’s a pistol used. And for AR-15 type events...I just don’t see these ever mentioned. Or am I simply missing these events?

Any centerfire rifle round, no matter how the bullet is made, is going to go right through regular police body armor, even a pure lead unjacketed bullet. Read more at http://www.wnd.com/2015/02/devilish-details-behind-obamas-bullet-ban/#VA5KcKFOe3Hbbcp5.99

If they get away with this ban they will "suddenly discover" that the vast majority of hunting rounds, i.e. .308, 7.62-51, 7.62-54, 30:06, 8mm, 300 win mag, etc. will easily defeat body armor and thus must "also be banned, even if they do not have a steel penatrator tip or steel core."

They fear a free and armed public. This is back door confiscation of our right to KEEP AND BEAR ARMS!
