Explain what ? With so much commotion going on their is no way anybody could definitely say the police shot anybody nor have anybody produced evidence supporting such a claim. We need to stop jumping to conclusions on either side of this dispute

I can't link the images as they are on facebook, but will try to find some. Here's a video where you can hear them being shot and mentioned in the crowd.

You have personally seen wounds that are consistent with rubber bullets?

Yes - though I'm not sure what that would prove either way. What does the cops using rubber bullets or not have to do with anything?

The bottom line is that they caught the shooter of the protester and it was not the police according to the video they reviewed.

I think what we are saying here is that a rubber bullet will leave a completely different and identifiable entry/exit/bruise mark than a jacketed customary bullet. Not sure I could identify it without assistance, and I've seen many bullet entry and exit wounds, but some expert could.

The earlier suggestions by some that he was shot at close range from behind are what I had an issue with. Somebody shot in the back of the head is going to bleed a heck of a lot more and there's going to be more than blood on the pavement.

It sounds like the shooter may have been further away and shooting into the crowd from a distance. Really sad situation and I'm thankful they caught him and hope it's airtight/documented.

You have accused the CMPD of cold blooded murder.

You have been proven wrong.

Time to move on with your "agenda" because nobody is buying it.
