TX - Armored van with gun-ports opens fire on Dallas PD headquarters

The problem with shooting out windows with a .50 cal is where does the bullet stop. It's one thing to put a round in an engine. It's another to have it land a mile away. Breakfast called, have they breached the van yet?
They cracked through the windshield and are going to use an "explosive water charge" to drown out any explosives that might be inside.

Right!! LOL!! I wonder what type of damage a .50 caliber bullet does to a body? Would it explode the body, or just go through and through? I would imagine they would rather not have the bullet go through the suspect and out the back of the seat and into the body of the van to possibly hit any explosives...but that is probably the only option to get through the windshield.

The 50 cal would do extremely horrific damage to a human being.

I really think they know what they are doing and aren't trying to kill him but trying pierce the bullet proof windshield. I don't know exactly what type of bullet proof windshield this particular van has but nowadays the experts are making them harder and harder to penetrate to protect those in battle.

However like always, these vans can be used for criminal activity and to do harm to others instead.

IMO

Looks like they are removing all of the vehicles from the area.
 
I have searched for this on eBay...wonder if they already took it down??

I have read that these type of vans are being used by some deer hunters and even as duck blinds. That way they are safer from being shot by other hunters in the area.

Of course that is not why this jerk purchased it.:(

Have they checked on the Judge that was over his other criminal and custody cases? He seemed to have a lot of hatred for them.

50 cal vs. 5 sheets of bullet proof glass
