Operation Plato


However UK police are armed with H&K G36’s which use 5.56mm. - don’t do the same kinda damage as a 7.62mm round but instead they are contour following rounds - which means they don’t smash through bone but are redirected internally when they hit bone.

So you could get shot in the leg but the round will exit your neck destroying any organs and blood vessels in its path.

If the poor guy was standing close to the purp - then it’s possible the round hit him first then exited his body and struck the unfortunate fella standing close to him.
If it has a clear trajectory, it can come out pretty straight and with a decent velocity, and enough to go through a dry-wall or a wooden door.

If it's tumbled from an initial impact, less so. You're correct about most have G36's for standard AFO, but a CTSFO may now carry a SIG MCX or similar.

That struck me today. Cancel marches of support for Gaza because of what happened in Manchester. There shouldn’t be any correlation whatsoever beyond murder is murder.
There's a prevelance, and I'll point it out, that the death of someone jewish means more because of just that. There's a projection of greater suffering, of greater racism because it's aimed at the jewish community.
All prejudice, on race, faith or culture is abhorrent, equally. All murder on those bases is equally abhorrent and when we leave that thought then we are acquiescing to the nazi ideology of 'superior' races.
Believe me, none of us fit into that categorisation.

Which is why, I'll probably be slagged off for this, I never understand why it's always 'women and children' first. Men are equally deserving.

On the same theme, it p's me off that when there is some kind of disaster it's always 'X number of Brits died'.

We are all people. We all want a nice life. We all matter, even 'black lives'.

I have never understood why people don't just get on with life and get on with each other. Jeez.

It's not just countries trying to hate each other. It's ordinary people who have to try and make other people's life worse by trying to be 'hard'. It's pathetic.

The other possibility is that they missed with couple of shots - one going through the door and into the fella on the other side.

Christ - who’d want to be a firearms officer!

Growing up in Crossmaglen, I’m well accustomed to the BBC narrative on the hierarchy of people.

The Red Tories have been suspending and expelling party members for conflating Jews and Jewish symbols with the policies of Israel...now they demand that an attack on Jews is reason for not protesting against the Israeli state's genocide in Gaza.

It's why everyone hates Starmer and his party.

Starmer will be gone by Christmas 2026 after a hiding in the May elections.
