Etymology
The word ammo is also used for facts or evidence you can use in an argument; a helpful way to remember this is to think of ideas as 'bullets' you fire in a debate, since ammo comes from ammunition, the war 'supplies' used to attack or defend. That's why people say they have 'ammo' for a story or a court case.
