Scully Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 https://ukshootingnews.wordpress.com/2016/07/18/language-magazines-and-capacity-this-matters/ As I object greatly to the language the media, police and politicians use to sensationalise a topic, usually to the effect they want to make something appear more 'deadlier' than it actually is, I think this is a relevant point.
