(1,068 posts)Did you read the prices on site you linked to (which are for bullets, Btw, not loaded cartridges), maybe you can explain why the .27 caliber 165 gr. round tips are $40 a box and the .30 caliber 180 gr. round tips are $38 dollars a box, if heavier bullets are always more expensive?
Cutting your toenails won't do much to educate you on your misconception regarding heavier bullets always being deadlier but if you want to continue your ignorance on the topic, it's your choice.
Again, your belief that hunters expend 1 or 2 bullets is unrealistic, it ignores the ammo that is used for target practice.
You don't think that there is an element of violence associated with rap culture? I haven't seen many articles about the bassoon player from the Boston Pops doing a drive by on a Rolls Royce driven by the first chair violinist from the NY Philharmonic, as occurred recently with a popular rap star in Miami but I'll readily admit that my exposure to rap is primarily limited to what I read in the headlines, so maybe it's a distorted view, overemphasizing the role that violence plays in that genre.
