The 223 cartridge used in the M16 and AR15 follows the letter of the law of the Geneva Convention. It is copper clad and does not expand on impact. However it tumbles upon impact and tears the tissue apart having the same impact as banned expanding bullets. It violates the spirit of the Geneva Convention. It was used in the Slaughter of Innocents in Newtown, CT and Webster, NY. The 223 caliber bullet is in-humane and should be banned from military and civilian use.
