Elderly woman shot in the head with a rubber bullet
In a stable condition.
Why are the police shooting people in the head with rubber bullets?
At least two reporters were permanently blinded in the last few days.

you have to be really close to have this kinetic impact. they are probably shooting with PVC or with Rubber+Metal core.sted - fucked up_niko

- I had family members get hit with the ones in Ireland, usually the army would shoot them at the ground first to reduce the impact.PhanLo
