This sounds interesting. No word on whether the shooter will be any smarter.

Just what I want, a bullet to piss off your assailant.

I prefer the lethal rounds, thanks.

The problem with "less than lethal" is that it could still be lethal, depending on the target, or where it strikes the target.

I know people who have accidentally caused the death of someone else; it haunts them.

The return of the GyroJet, with less effective ammo.
I say--put the writer at the receiving end and let us know how it feels.
I know that I always enjoyed Popular Mechanics and Popular Science--both were almost as funny as Mad Magazine.
