[QUOTE="Billybob, post: 2022670, member: 1294"] [About a dozen surgeons who spoke to ABC News -- some of whom said they owned guns themselves for protection -- agreed that they'd like to see guns taken off the streets across the United States, but conceded that it was an impossibility. "Have all the guns you want," said Dr. Nicholas Namias, medical director of Ryder Trauma Center. "We need a war on ammunition." Zakrison said she could tell immediately when a victim entered the emergency room whether they'd been hit by an assault weapon or a handgun. "Absolutely," she said. "[It] looks like a bomb has gone off on the inside." She said she wants the bullets used today in many semiautomatic weapons to be banned. Not only do assault rifle bullets travel about three times as fast through the rifle's longer barrel, but they are designed not just to strike but to explode or fragment, causing extensive damage.] [url]http://abcnews.go.com/US/trauma-surgeons-treated-baby-shot-womb-call-war/story?id=18010195[/url] [/QUOTE]
