OF THE
TIMES
Today as never before we need to comprehend the course, logic, and path of the process of history. Every day we need to make decisions that will affect future generations. It has become obvious that no single nation, confession, social class or even civilization can solve these problems on its own. We increasingly have to listen to one another: Europe and Asia, Christians and Muslims, White and Black peoples, citizens of modern democratic states and places where traditional society survives. The key is to understand one another correctly, avoid hasty conclusions, and acquire the true spirit of tolerance and respect toward those with different value systems, habits, and norms.

The Department of "Homeland Security" put in an order for a total of 2 Billion (with a 'B') bullets, most of which are hollow point. The official reason given is that this is for "training purposes". That is such total BS. A hollow point bullet is very much more expensive than a "range" round. I would most certainly not want to be shot with a range round, but they are not designed to penetrate or cause massive injury. It would be the height of fiscal irresponsibility (not that DHS is above such a thing...) to "practice" with top-of-the-line hollow point bullets.
A hollow point bullet is designed with one purpose and one purpose only. To kill someone, or as a "worst case" take them down permanently. A hollow point bullet goes into you in a hole the size of a dime (depending on the caliber) and comes out a hole the size of your fist or larger after the bullet mushrooms out inside your body.
Question: If DHS is *really* going to use these as training rounds, why aren't the news organizations in an uproar about the obvious waste of taxpayer dollars?
