What did they shoot him with? Looks like paintball or something. Wont kill you but that shit will rip your scalp apart.

"less lethal" pepper ball, so yes effectively a spicy paintball. In the video of the arrest of a mayor you actually see one of these goons knock his hopper off and fumble with it for a sec

It's not "less than lethal", it's "less lethal"

Thank you for correction, I don't think anyone says less than anymore true

[–] m0darn@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

It's because less lethal technologies can still potentially be lethal

Yeah, depending on the gun and what it's chrono'd at, that can absolutely fuck you up. Knowing that ICE isn't concerned with wasting air or causing bodily harm (and gets off on the cruelty), you know they've got everything cranked up to the max.
