One report described bullets dropping out of Diallo's corpse while the paramedics lifted him away. The "officers" were making bullet-holes in bullet-holes.

Remember when that guy Diallo was shot by the four NY police officers? Something like 40 shots fired, and Diallo was only (what a horrible way to think of it...) hit by about 20. I can't recall the exact numbers, I just remember that he was hit by slightly less than half the total shots fired. I recall thinking at the time, the neighbourhood they were in is lucky one or more of those other 20+ shots didn't hit someone else!

This is what happens when you have handguns that fire 9 rounds per second!

I want to ask you pro gun people especially Aaron, who wants stricter gun control. Are you aware of that the gun a criminal uses is not made for that purpose (to rob and kill and things like that)? So if you want people to defend themselves (your amendement 2?) what is a guarantee that that gun will not show up in a murder in the future? How do you control stricter gun control 200 years from now? The gun pointed at you if you meet a criminal was also for good people and self defense. Obviously it didn't work.
