Images of Less Lethal Weapons

This is what the police are shooting at people out there. These specimens were collected around 9:00 PM on September 2nd from St. Peter Street, between 7th and 6th. They were shot from near Mickey's diner after the Poor People's March on Tuesday.

Fragment of foam-tipped bullet. This is orange; I have seen blue and green ones as well. Not sure what the difference is.

Foam-tipped bullet (top).

Metal baton round, which are fired out of a grenade launcher at a high velocity. They are filled with irritating "pepper powder," which is ejected on impact.

Fragmented wooden baton round, also fired from a grenade launcher. These have a tendency to splinter on impact.

Fragmented flash-bang grenade. The unexploded unit is likely something similar to this.

In addition to the above, I have personally seen paintball-like marker projectiles and (obviously) lots of pepper spray. There are confirmed reports of tasers (unsure of total numbers), as well as numerous reports of tear gas. However, to my knowledge (which is by no means complete) none of the gas reports have been 100% confirmed.

If you see any less-lethals laying on the streets, please collect & document them (but, please, only if it is safe to do so). It is imperative to share any information we have on police conduct, and in the event of a lawsuit, physical examples of their weapons will be very useful.
