• APU.S. law enforcement officials exchanged 300 rounds of gunfire with suspected drug runners during a pre-dawn shootout across the Rio Grande, but only about six came from the suspects. Such an response was standard given the zero tolerance policy
300 rounds fired by U.S. - - Three suspects on the Mexican side of the river were believed injured or killed - - hummmmm - 100 rounds per bad guy.
On my first day I was handed a badge, a S&W Model 10 .38Special and 12 rounds of ammo. I looked down at the bullets in my hand for a moment, then "Only 12 bullets?" I asked. The Chief was passing by and answered my rooky complaint; "If you have to kill 12 men then it's not a police matter; you're in the middle of a war. Get your ass out of there."
Different times, different ways.
