For a quick capacity check that works, but without proper friction transfer the joint will wear itself out quickly.

Rivets have a very inconsistent clamping force so determining friction capacity for shear transfer is problematic. There is no easy way to determine if a rivet was applied correctly, with bolts it is very simple.

You can’t accurately predict the strength of the joint with a rivet. You can with a bolt. One is better than the other, and one is used in construction now, while the other is not.

So is murder.

She has to ask for all of it back. How the law works.

Drug crimes don't require intervention, we just made an industry intervening in drugs. Cops have a habit of assuming they are soldiers, not civilians and they love using their toys. SWAT teams are being used for non violent warrant arrests, thats a problem. They don't need mraps, they don't need armored bobcats crash…

Sit and spin.

Why are you so concerned with "crack" and not cocain in general? And if you are so concerned with crack you might want to talk the CIA for helping the market along in the 80's.

Heavily armed crack houses full of insane criminals

It will never be shot at so who cares?

What exactly is "reasonable" about this? You know all those times the police have had to needed to crash an armored truck into a building, all of those 0 times. Yeah this works way better.
