"Armed with bullets"!!!?????

What kind of idiots are writing this crap?

Maybe he was coming home from a vacation of frog-gigging and planned
to sneak into the cockpit and put the bullet in the fusebox to replace
the blown headlight fuse... ;-)

For those of you that missed it, Mythbusters just tested that - if
you put a .22 bullet in 3AG/SFE 1/4" fuse clips and put a 12VDC short
circuit across it, they fire off nicely.

Don't have a whole lot of kick without a gun barrel to channel the
energy, but they go bang nicely enough. The bullet and cartridge fly
off in opposite directions, with enough energy to do some minor
damage.
