Two protesters have been blinded by so-called “less-lethal” munitions deployed by federal officers during an anti-ICE protest last week in Santa Ana, California, according to reports.
Widely seen video recorded at the Santa Ana protest showed a homeland security agent shoot Kaden Rummler, 21, in the face with a less-lethal munition at a distance of only a few feet. Doctors found glass shards and plastic fragments in his skull and a fragment of metal lodged just shy of his carotid artery.
We don’t actually know they are good shots. They are also very large targets. Even American hero Tommy “iron sights” Crooks could hit that barn.
People are dying rn.
Yeah but… close range. If you catch my drift.
