Berkeley Lines: 12 Approved: jkh@ucbjade Author: Hokey Article: 3:26 >From what I have heard about Glasser Safety Slugs, one might have to hit the target more than once. (The definition of "target" is purposely vague.) You don't stop (or kill) a person by taking a piece out of their hand or arm, or by making them eat through a straw for the rest of their life. This may also be a reason why they are called "Safety Slugs". While it is probably obvious, there is a difference between "killing" someone (dying in a week from a gut wound) and "stopping" someone. -- Hokey
