Show me the bullets

Well I was entering the Language Centre, funded by the US Embassy. The security was high as expected and as usual. However, I was entering on the wrong day. It was the day or registration and thousands flock in on that day. I was directed to the centre a short while ago, and went directly to there. The man at the door didn't want to me to enter and asked me to call. I took my cell phone and started to try and reach the office inside. While I was waiting, a guy walked in the metal detector and it beeped. After a few trials the security guard told the guy to take of "Alrousass" which has two meanings, (i) bullets and (ii) lead. I couldn't imagine it was the first, so I assumed it was the later. I was mistaken, it turned out to be bullets. Combined with the Yemeni dagger that most people entertain, it made to a very "comfortable" situation with locals.
