I’d argue this isn’t internal US news considering an international reporter was shot. TWO international reporters shot in a single day.

Also…

“People came over to help and got me on the curb. A medic was called, who cut off my clothes. In my leg was what felt like a five centimeter hole with muscle hanging out of it and blood all down my leg. The medic put a tourniquet on it, and a journalist I was with took me to ER.”

    Less lethal round. There’s no guarantee of its usage being non-lethal, only less likely to be lethal when using correctly.

      Precisely. There is no such thing as a “non lethal” round. I can’t believe the media has gotten so… God I hate to use this word but it’s the only one that works… cucked.

        Owned is a great word for this. Nearly all our news outlets are owned by billionaires which leaves journalists next to zero ownership over what they are allowed to write and how they are allowed to frame things.

      Especially when dumbasses are using them and aim for the neck, face, and head at way too close range.
