@techcafe ya it also includes bean bags, tear gas and a host of other tools. when rubber bullets are fired from the ARWEN 37, it makes a very distincive and very diffrent noise than what was fired on the video. i would know, i happen to be a police tactical team member in Ontario

@hellocitybnl - are you seriously trying to convince the public that you guys fired 'bean bags' from that 'riot control' weapon?? how bloody stupid do you think we are?? and what the hell are these 'host of other tools' you're talking about?

[techcafe]

@hellocitybnl - according to News reports, the TPS/ISU used 37-millimetre PLASTIC BULLETS - also referred to as 'rubber bullets'. the ARWEN '37' is promoted as being 'less lethal' and is designed to fire tear-gass canisters and large plastic/rubber bullets at 74 metres/sec, at a target/person up to 100 metres away.

those weren't 'bean bags' being fired at demonstrators... they were plastic bullets.

the Toronto police used a 'riot control' weapon, called the ARWEN 37 (look it up on Google).

This G20 was is a big black eye on the face of Canada.. Sad really.

did you notice who was shot by the rubber bullets? why do they keep lying? she had the rubber bullet welts to proove it. they claimed no rubber bullets we're used.

We're being lied to, we have the proof right infront of our eyes... do we accept what they tell us or do we believe our own eyes??

even in the day of the internet where the video footage is available... we're still so easily swayed by lies?

Its the lying that bothers me more then anything.. they know they have something to hide.

@lankinator24 O.o why if you oppose unnescesary force its imediately viewed as Anarchy? I beleive in order, but order that cares about the people that won't follow rediculous orders that don't make sence. When the Media get punched in the face by police officers, something is terribly wrong.

Rationality before action.

hahaha i can only laugh when i see this....as a european you are seriously tolerant people and your government seems like fucking you quite hard that time. i hope you will all get revenge for this. violent cops dont deserve a life. no respect, and no tolerance, it doesn't matter where they have their orders from. stand together and fight them to the blood!
