Depleted Uranium is this generation's Agent Orange. Those that perpetuate it's use should rot in the deepest, darkest prison cells for their crimes against humanity...or better yet, be torn apart by angry mobs.Quote:
Depleted Uranium much?

It is a shame that there isn't an outrage over this. Even more pathetic is the fact that if you ask an average person what D.U. is, it's uses and subsequent effects on biology; they would have no idea what you were talking about. Sad and weak public.
Butt butt butt... But there's all that armor to pierce! :shock:
How are we supposed to fight all those Taliban tanks?

D.U. will leave the region dangerously radioactive for millions upon millions of years (essentially an eternity). Since we didn't find a WMDs in Iraq, I guess we brought them there?
High density materials such a lead (around 11 gm/cc) and uranium (around 19 gm/cc) make excellent military projectiles. As a projectile, Uranium beats lead because it’s also harder than lead and is used, as hippiefied says, to pierce high grade armor. Because of their high density, both lead and depleted uranium are also excellent shields against radioactivity. Medical and industrial X-ray machines are shielded with depleted uranium. Just thought you guys might find the latter application somewhat ironic.
Excellent military projectiles huh? Well, they also are tools of absolute horror causing obscene birth defects, cancer, death and eternal destruction of the environment. It is specifically a genotoxic agent and destroys germ cells, gamete cells and wreaks havoc on DNA. Its usage is actually universally illegal in these applications for grossly apparent reasons. So wake up America and smell the fucking coffee!!!
Do a little google image, search if you must.
Coffee fucks???
You mean I've been wasting my time drinking it all these years?
