Hollow points, frangible bullets, etc, are essentially what they used to call Dum-Dum bullets, designed to KILL the target, not just wound it. They are unlawful for use in warfare because they are so “terrible.” Not to mention that a soldier who is killed doesn't tie up a couple more guys to carry his stretcher off the battlefield.
Cops start using bullets that are INTENDED to kill will get a certain party's panties in a twist. This is a no-win situation. Except maybe for people standing behind the people or things the cops are shooting at.
