The US Government Is Using Hollow Point Ammo On US Citizens!

Published on January 21, 2025
Duration: 6:52

This video argues that the US government's use of hollow point ammunition by administrative branches on US citizens is hypocritical and potentially a war crime. It highlights the contradiction where civilians using hollow points for self-defense can face legal repercussions for intending to cause 'unnecessary damage,' while federal agencies are permitted to use the same ammunition domestically under the guise of not intending such damage.

Quick Summary

The Hague Convention of 1899 prohibits expanding ammunition as a war crime. However, the US DoD Law of War Manual allows it if not intended to cause unnecessary damage. This creates a legal double standard, as civilians using hollow points for self-defense can be prosecuted for 'unnecessary damage,' while federal agencies use them domestically.
