I'd like to put to bed what that reporter said. He said that, as he stood in front of that house where I heard rounds cooking off, that "a bullet landed on his head." I doubt that he was an NRA member, just some guy trying to describe what was happening around him. I do not doubt that, from the rubble, something bounced off his head. He called it a bullet. I transposed what he called a "bullet" into a more proper name for what I think he meant: a cartridge. I have also no doubt that a cartridge can be flung several yards into the air and in any direction by fellow cartridges cooking off. Firefighters, with their visors down, have no problem dealing with this. The reporter was not so equipped.
Can we put this thread to bed? Please?
