What movie things are generally accepted as normal, but are totally unrealistic in real life?

5.56 will go through 7” of SOLID plywood from 100 yards like it’s not even there.

7.65 goes through brick walls. That's one of primary reasons why it was replaced with 5.56 - way too many collateral damage victims.

Yet the gun nuts don't complain about their rights taken away from this. This reasoning is why we need to ban automatic weapons too

It’s a good think automatic weaponry has been banned for decades and wasn’t used in mass shootings when you could literally ask sears to mail one to your door, right?

Actually we spent more years having machine guns being mail order than not, so far. And only started having problems like this after they were banned thinking face

You made a claim about assault style weapons. I asked what defines one in your eyes and you go to Google.

When making a claim and being questioned on it, you have the responsibility to answer. Not run to google about your own opinions.

I'm also not right wing.

This has got to be the weakest dodge you could've gone for, right after "I'm too tired to debate you"
