Reporter's mis-interpretation of knowledge always impresses me!

So Dufus finds a bullet. Big deal. Really, Dufus finds a cartridge, a .380 caliber cartridge at that. For our European audience a .380 is a 9mm short, (kurz).

They found a .22 caliber bullet with a screw in it. Now is this a true bullet, or is this another cartridge? What does a screw embedded .22 caliber bullet have to do with a .380 cartridge? Nothing! However, it lends to the story that Dufus has a history of palying with bullets, or is it cartridges? There was also a pool of blood. Outstanding! So he did in fact induce pain and injury. But to whom? Where did the blood come from? Whose blood is it?

Reporter says that Dufus caused the bullet to fire. However, the investigators say it exploded. Well duh! A bullet CANNOT fire. ~ Period. All stupidity should stop right there! A bullet is a projectile. A bullet is what leaves the barrel and enters the target medium. A cartridge cannot fire without a BARREL! Any ground squirrel knows that! However, under the right circumstances, a cartridge will explode without a barrel! Say for instance it was held in a vice and the primer was smacked by a screw from a hammer!

The last sentence really worries me. It is still under quote, but I'm hoping and praying that the reporter blotched this pretty bad. If the bullet did in fact explode, Florida has an issue far greater that stupid reporters and folks incapable of placing a correct vote ballot. To my knowledge, only the Federal Government is authorized exploding bullets. DOD, FBI, CIA. No state is authorized, nor is local police, or even the Guard while not on active status. However, there are no agencies that I'm aware of that uses such a diminutive caliber. Therefore, I'm thinking this is blotched reporting and not factual evidence. However, if this is in fact an exploding bullet, it must be the biggest topic at the moment. For even such a small bullet as a .380, if it is in fact packing an explosive charge, it could more than likely breach current SWAT team body armor, and would make 'swiss cheese' of regular street cop armor! This IS a big deal!

Whose blood was found at the site?
