The magic bullet as reality- coming soon.
#4
A more worrying weapon is the railgun which uses electrical current to send a projectile upon its way at a speed approaching Mach 10, as opposed to the puny 930 m/s muzzle speed of the M16 (sorry to sound like a techy here, I assure you I'm not).

The kinetic energy impact of being hit by a projectile travelling at Mach 10 would cause a severe headache. And possibly a nosebleed too.

But to be fair there is a lot of advanced gun technology out there. Like kit that can fire a bank of bullets electrically at different elevations and differet times and have them all arrive at exactly the same space at exactly the same time.

I think it's based on a traffic jam. Big Grin

Btw, where can I subscribe to Al Qeada Monthly? Sounds great. Is it a porn magazine?
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
