7/18/2002: Sometimes rubber bullets hurt
dave Thursday Jul 18 03:17 PM I would submit that rubber bullets <b>always</b> hurt. Damn. Undertoad Thursday Jul 18 05:35 PM And not one of the little weenie ones, he'll need that giant 4" x 4" square one that comes in its own special box.

Lino Cesar Oviedo, was shot south of Asuncion while calling for the resignation of President Luis Gonzalez Macchi." NateXLH1000 Thursday Jul 18 10:14 PM Bullet hole Look at where the hole is! Shooting at people the are running away is simply a waste of bullets. ndetroit Friday Jul 19 12:24 AM rubber bullets are probably a lot cheaper than special chemical foam. jeni Friday Jul 19 01:43 AM so must getting shot anywhere else. blowmeetheclown Friday Jul 19 08:59 AM Is this one of those half-centimeter-over-and-you-would-have-been-paralyzed type things? Vegeta Friday Jul 19 09:34 AM 'Tis but a scratch. juju Friday Jul 19 02:54 PM Damn protesters..always standing there peacefully holding signs! Why, he probably asked for it! tandr Monday Jul 22 01:07 AM Rubber??? Guys, have you seen these "rubber" bullets??? I don't know why they call them "rubber". It is about half-inch in diameter iron (yes, you read it right - iron) balls covererd with about 1-2 mm of plastic. Pack (i do not remember, but I think about couple hundred of them) sitting in small cylinder attached to end of rifle and rifle gets special piston to get it work, not regular bullet (there are another versions, too). It has very short range but man, it is a powerful and loud. I saw how these thing got fired (on firing range) and I will not go anywhere near this thing if I see them attached to M16...
