I read it right till the end - where the article ended with - rubber bullets are less harmful that either physical force or lead bullets. So, they confirmed my thinking - no system of LESS force than lead bullets is going to be perfect - there will be some injuries. It beats trigger-happy BAD police shooting 7 lead rounds into a suspects back. ANYTHING to avoid that. How about a suggestion for the US to study and adopt European Policing training and methods.How about NOT allowing the NRA to saturate America with semi-auto military rifles. How about single-shot rifles. I could hunt squirrels successfully with my single-shot 22 when I was in 7th grade. I did not need a semi-auto. I could do EVERYTHING that I need for hunting today and home defense with a single-shot rifle or even pistol. That system would be WAY better than the Wild-West killing field streets that we have in the US cities today. And the NRA is very responsible!
