Related: About this forumWhat an AR15 does.
There is a lot of discussion of what damage an AR15 does and how if the forensic pictures of victims were released it would make a difference.
I can't show you what it does to a six year old first grader but I can show you what it does to a ten pound pork shoulder. It's about the same size as a child's chest.
If you're up to it here it is: Skip to 2:30, 5:45 or 7:30 to minimize the gleeful commentary.

(453 posts)Larger calibers will do much more damage, here is a pretty good video showing 223 vs 30-30 vs 308 vs 3006 vs 7 mm remington.
The 7mm totally blew apart a piece of meat, and he did a water jug shot as well.

Let me know and I'll make some more videos.
He is actually normalizing this type of horror.

(15,328 posts)As someone else posted, let's show a few child's bodies after being ripped apart.
In this country we like to make things seem like they are in shrink wrap, perhaps being prepared for a nice BBQ on the deck.

(1,044 posts)They started to use ultrasounds to sway the public.
Turnaround is fair play.
erronis
(15,328 posts)They are not murders of innocent children and young adults at schools.
Ultrasounds are used to look at a developing fetus and determining if that fetus is going to be viable in life. This way different than some nut deciding to murder adults, children, and women that will die if forced to give birth.
Yes - we should make them look at their own atrocities. But will they? Do they care? How can we make them pay for their own failures?

is the amount of rounds it can fire in short a short time rather than the ammo.
AndyS
(14,559 posts)down to a .22 short, I'd like to know about those more destructive rounds.
Please inform me.

(35,363 posts)elephant with an AR15 you would just piss him off. I sure wouldn't want to face an elephant, rhino, grizzly
or lion with an AR15 they are not designed for that. Look them up on ballistics chart. I was just reading about a
pistol round the 30 Super Carry the ballistics are very close to the 9mm. But the reason they came up with that round
they are a 31 caliber instead of 38 caliber so the smaller diameter shell allows you to have two additional rounds with
about the same knock down power as a 9mm.

(23,739 posts)This vicious demo was not done in support of eliminating these mass killing, body destroying guns and ammo. It was not filmed to demonstrate the horrors of the damage these guns and ammo cause to a flesh and blood body.
No, he did this to glorify the guns and ammo. He giggled every time those bullets tore through the bodies of those dead animals.
This will only encourage those that get their kicks from mayhem and destruction to stock up on the guns and ammo that are killing our children and loved ones.

(530 posts)My husband made the point that the poor pig who gave up his life to be used in an AR15 demo was swinging from a branch. Imagine what happens when whoever is being shot has their feet planted on the ground - not that anyone could survive either scenario. These weapons of war have no place in civilian life. I doubt we will ever figure out a way to eradicate the obscene gun culture in this country.
