It's fine if people like it, it just gives me a gross and uncomfortable feeling when I see it and makes me sad that one of the first careers killed by AI could be illustrators.

That is for 37mm foam that splits on the ground to spread at the crowd, they are primarily using 40mm foam rounds with a metal core, if you bounce it off the ground it can rotate and impact with the hard plastic backing, which is likely how the UK journalist who required calf surgery was injured. It's specifically recommended not to bounce them but to aim near the naval, arms or legs.

Do you have the same concern for the thousands of children being held indefinitely in prisons by Israel? Why don't those hostages deserve release?

You are wrong, people are pissed and are willing to show it. Have you never felt serious about something in your life? He didn't initiate the violence, the raids in his community from masked fascist goon squads started the violence. He is defending the people.

NRA obviously isn't going to help us, but your local Socialist Rifle Association would be more amenable to resisting tyranny. If there is no chapter in your area get some like minded friends together and start one.

Edit: How could I forget your local John Brown Gun Club, good number of chapters around the country and they will be comrades.

Well when we fought the original Nazis it wasn't limited to the officers and leadership.
