"could penetrate two school buses parked together 250 yards away"
To put this in a more understandable context (using my liberal-logic convert-o-matic wheel).
that equates to:
4000 beautiful babies lined up head to toe.
2000 cute fuzzy bunnies lined up nose to tail.
1500 adorable little kittens (head to tail)
1250 happy little puppies
or
450 mental ill people lined up by psycosis (neurotic in front, ocd middle, schizoids end).
That is ALARMING, it puts it all in perspective..
(please note, women and minorites will be hardest hit by this)..
