The WAPO, and even more so the idiot so-called “Journalist” who wrote that story, have been outed as incompetent utter fools at best, and degenerate proagandists at worst.

Why does anyone read that rag (WAPO)? it wouldn’t even make good toilet paper!

from CF:

And of course, Rondeaux was wrong when she said that the 5.56×45mm NATO cartridge used by the military are “223-caliber rounds — the same round fired by the military’s M-16 and M-4 assault rifles.”

Of course, had she bothered to contact ammunition companies in this story about ammunition, she might have figured a few of these things out before she went to print.

4, this story is a mess. I don’t know if the Military uses .38 Special or .40 caliber ammo, and not sure many cops use the .38 Specials anymore. Maybe rent-a-cops do, but not street cops. They use either 9mm or .40 Cal. I don’t know of many PDs issuing .45 ACP, and the military is moving away from the .45 ACP (M1911 Colts).

Where are all the bullets going for law enforcement? Doesn’t that seem like an awful big increase? If they need it, so be it, but a 40% increase seems like they either had too little and needed to adjust inventories, or they are not stock piling.

Goshm, you’d think the Compost could have just asked someone in LE if any of that was true. Nah, that’s too much work. Besides, it sounds better that in yet another way, another facet of American society, Bush’s WOT has hurt us.

That sounds so much better, so that’s what they went with. Never mind the truth…

Can we ever expect the truth from the WASHINGTON COMPOST americas liberal media liars

Liberals lie! Get that fact straight.

Wa. Post is a liberal paper run by liberals who don’t fact check stories that appeal to liberal “sensibilities”. Remember, this is the paper who had to give back a Pulitzer Prize because one of their reporters fabricated an article repeating all the liberal dogmas about how bad the Reagan Admin. was hurting the poor on Welfare.
