Re: 7/18/2002: Sometimes rubber bullets hurt
"The protester, a proponent of Gen. Lino Cesar Oviedo, was shot south of Asuncion while calling for the resignation of President Luis Gonzalez Macchi."
Something tells me he was doing a little more than peacefully "calling for" his resignation!
I'm not so sure rubber bullets in and of themselves are a problem, as long as they are used responsibly. Sure, they can kill, but hopefully the police using them have been trained on how to fire them without killing or causing permanent injury.
