I’d argue this isn’t internal US news considering an international reporter was shot. TWO international reporters shot in a single day. I also wish so badly I could edit the title to more accurately reflect what happened. “Police shoot reporter in the back.”

I’ll keep repeating this because I think it’s important
Wear safety glasses
Not sunglasses, or shades or prescription glasses
Wear actual industrial rated workers safety glasses.
If you get those shots in your face, you’re going to lose an eye or both eyes. Safety glasses are designed for this kind of stuff and they actually work. It will stop those projectiles from damaging your eyes.
Cops all over the world are known to purposefully shoot people’s faces and heads. After the fact they will just argue that it didn’t happen, it was accidental, it was chaotic, it was dangerous, etc, etc … it won’t matter after the fact if you lose an eye or end up completely blind.
Wear safety glasses, they’re easy to find and easy to use.
A good idea, but safety glasses will only protect you from shrapnel, not slugs to the face.
If they’re firing slugs that can break through industry rated safety glasses … those same slugs can break through your skull.
If they’re using munitions like that … then they’re using lethal rounds and no safety glasses will help.
A 9News reporter has been caught in the crossfire of chaotic protests that have engulfed parts of Los Angeles.
Looks to me like the guy turned and intentionally shot her completely unprovoked. I can’t tell what was happening In front of her though if she was really in crossfire.
100% what happened. The uncropped video is plain as fucking day. He looks back and forth around the area and the second that she’s turned and the camera looks around, he just fucking shoots her. Only way he could argue anything was thinking the camera was a gun. The giant bulky shoulder camera. If so, then dude doesn’t deserve the ability to drive a CAR, never mind work in law enforcement.
Dozens and dozens of journalists were shot this way during the first Trump regime after the George Floyd protests.
You dare show people unhappy at Dearest Leader?
He can’t argue that because they had been standing there for a very long time doing the interview. They didn’t turn a corner, and appear outa nowhere.
They moved slightly yo the left. And for a cop, you should never move left. The over lord and technobaron don’t allow that.
The uncropped video
Have a link?
“Delay”… 2h… Man, that isn’t a delay, that’s normal.
I not accusing any of you, I just hate that unrealistic expectation some have that a reply should be done in less than 10 minutes. 😅
I only said that because I was actively replying to other people lol
Thank you. No worries at all about the delay; didn’t even check till now anyways.
I wish we’d stop allowing them to be referred to as “rubber bullets”, which sounds sorta safe.
These things are metal slugs that break bones and rupture organs. They can crush your skull and kill you outright:
Tomasi was left sore but otherwise unharmed.
According to conservative Bootlicker media that want to be allowed back into the country again. They weren’t even willing to say she was shot by the cop.
“Hit” huh? Were rubber bullets just flying around randomly? The word we need here is “shot”.
I love the dichotomy of calling them riots and then the only people causing any chaos or harm are the police.
Edit: Specifically calling out the news video that autoplays on their site.
Asshole did that shit on purpose
