Q. Did the Police deploy rubber bullets, flash-bag grenades?
A. No, the loud noises that were heard originated from M-80 explosives thrown at Police by protesters. In addition, Police fired approximately four bean bag rounds at protesters to stop them from throwing dangerous objects at the officers.

M80 explosives.
If you needed any evidence that you lived in a fucking police state, this confirms it. Police covering up their tracks in the most blatant ways, and most people couldnt giev a fuck.
Police brutality is real. Stop clouding it with your “not all cops are bad” bullshit.
