If this is ISIS, will Congress do the same?

I hope we can emphasize rockets being invented with killing people in mind to direct some of that sweet funding that'd otherwise go to the military into NASA. Sure, we can wave off the 'multiple purposes' NASA puts their rockets to, surely if we advertise the totally-sensible standard of all rockets being invented for killing people we can finally get a dedicated launch platform made.
...Of course, we'd be lying but hey, for space, I'm down I suppose...
In any case, too little information to say very much at this point. Rather plausible the 'body armor' might have been load-carrying vests (I believe the same misperception occurred after the Holmes shooting).
Apparently, NYT is reporting a gunfight, 'suspect down', and request for a bearcat (armored vehicle) by the local PD.
To my knowledge, NASA never developed rockets for the purpose of exploding them on a target

And? This doesn't make all firearms still conform to that 'designed to kill things' anymore than it makes all rockets conform to the same standard.
Technology can change the uses of things and expand their purpose. Not much news there, it's something that's been happening for pretty much all of human history.
The only place 'firearms were designed to kill things' (and nothing else!) claims are appropriate is in discussions of the historical development of firearms in China back in whenever-the-hell. It bears zero relevance to the modern items descended from those 'first' firearms.
Firearms propel chunks of lead at blindingly fast speeds, for the sole intent of punching holes in things. The only kind of firearm you could might be able to contend is not designed to punch holes in living creatures would be those designed specifically for target-shooting, and how often do you think those are used in firearm crime?
Given that early firearms had to be shot en masse in the general direction of your target to have any hope of hitting it at range, I think we can safely say that firearms were designed with large military engagements, and personal defence at very close range, in mind. Unless you can think of some other reason firearms were developed?
