That's after they let zionist mobs in to attack the encampment for hours with fireworks, mace and batons but that was not enough and they got repelled. So they're finishing the job themselves with (rubber) bullets.

This is history in the making. And they chose to be on the wrong side of it.
- are police ever on the right side of history? seriously. they were created to control masses at any cost, morally or not, and the job attracts the absolute worst people.
  
  I agree. ACAB.
Remind me why I should ever feel patriotic about living in this shithole?

Clearly less lethal weapons are needed to stop non-violent protesters from occupying some space to voice opposition to violence.

/s just in case. Also, rubber bullets are less lethal weapons, as in less likely to kill than bullets.
- Less likely to kill, but not unlikely to kill.
  
  Yup!
  
  Too many people think that rubber bullets, tasers, and any alternative to shooting live bullets are non-lethal when they are actually less lethal.
- I thought you were supposed to aim rubber bullets at the ground, so the force would partially dissipate. There are cops shooting straight out from hip level, which I guess isn't horrible, but the people shooting straight out from eye level are officially violating a bunch of regulations.
  
  They were straight up intentionally head shotting people in the BLM protests.

  Don't worry, I'm sure they'll be punished with a couple weeks of paid leave.
  
  Shooting at the ground is less about slowing down the bullet than keeping the shooter from aiming at specific people so the department can claim they didn't target anyone in particular.
  
  Shooting from hip level is horrible because they still have the ability to aim from the hip.
  
  Yeah, they’re supposed to be fired at waist level and below. The goal is (supposed to be) to bruise legs, not explode eyes. But these cops were either trained wrong (likely on purpose), or are intentionally going against their training.
  
  They were going for headshots during the pandemic riots too.
- How we are all not rising up at this point is a testament to corporate media dosing us.
- The Oakland County Child Killer was a less lethal serial killer than John Wayne Gacy
  
  Edit: Huh, apparently that wasn't an apt comparison? Oh well, the point is you wouldn't leave someone alone in a room with either one of them and you shouldn't fire bullets, rubber or not, at nonviolent protestors. Probably shouldn't really be shooting at people in general... Except maybe those serial killers.

- Not a PoC in the gang either. All very white, very angry klan memebers.
  
  There is only 1 race when you become a cops and that's blue. Non white cops are exactly the same as white cops.
