#1 In this pic, the Paleos allegedly administering first aid look more like they're preparing to behead the little cretin. Force of habit and custom, I guess.

#2 Better than getting hit in the head with a rock. Maybe.

#3 This pic again.
One guy appears to be depressing the carotid artery in an attempt to stop the bleeding.
I highly recommend this procedure for injured moonbats.

#4 nice.. skull center mass/shot

#5 If it had been a real bullet, he probably wouldn't have felt a thing.

#6 Boom! Headshot!

But, I bet this guy is ecstatic at getting his picture in the papers. Now he's a martyr, the sainthood that all moonbats desire. He'll go find Cindy Sheehan, wherever she is these days.

#10 I'm not sure how hard these rubber bullets are, but they aren't hard enough. He's barely got a scratch, and I doubt that anything inside his cranium is damaged.

Start using real bullets guys. This only encourages them.

#13 The little nazi scum would never have protested against any other state but Israel. Not agsint Syria (who occupies Lebanon), not against Saudi Arabia (whioa, woman, terror), not against Algeria (opression of Berbers) and not against Sudan (genocide against Blacks). He dreams of a second Holocaust that is why he so keen on Israle and in helping so repugnat people as the Palestinians (Rantburgers will remind that they tried to blmow a maternity). It is a pity they didn't uyse real bullets on this Nazi.

#14 As he lay there on the ground, bleeding, one thought kept running through his mind: "HeadOn -- apply directly to the forehead. . . . HeadOn -- apply directly to the forehead. . . . HeadOn -- apply directly to the forehead. . . . ."

#17 I heartily encourage the Israelis to selectively target US citizens rioting with Paleos, and enough with the rubber bullet bulldada.

The best solution would be to grab some of them, and sell them to Darfur Arabs as slaves.

#20 Navy types might favor their 16 battleship gun for this kind of target.
I figure a plastic slug for this(they aren't really rubber) would weigh about 500 lbs. Unfortunately, Israel has none of those guns and they are a bit hard to move around if you don't have a battleship to put them on.

#22 Worse yet he probably expects to be treated by his Palieo and moonbat friends as some sort of Hero...

You can almost read his mind.... "I did it! I hit it big time! Momma Sheehan here I come!"...

I was laughing even before I looked at the picture. Somehow I blame Frank G and tu* for this depraved lack of sympathy.

#27 Dead center! You've got to admit that whoever shot this guy, he did a great job. It's nice to know some people still take care in what they do, most would have aimed center of mass and be done with it, gee, I wonder what will be on teevee tonight?, but there was one guy, one single guy who took the extra step, the extra effort of perfect headshot. Kudos!

#32 Regarding how hard the rubber bullets are. P.J O'Rourke, no pansy peaceknick described the bullets as shoe-leather wrapped around real bullet. He felt the ones (used in the 80s, they may have changed) were excessive.

#33 I'd prefer if they simply used paint guns which hurt and make fun colors. Combine that with rumors of pig fat in the paint and you have a winner.

#35 I have no sympathy for the idiot. He's probably some liberal arts professor at some minor private college in the United States, and really believes all the sh$$ about the paleostains. Should have been treated with a tourniquet around the neck. As for the battleship comment, I think the best thing the US could do would be to revive four or twelve of the beasts, remove the turrets and replace them with GMLRS launchers, line 'em up in a Battle Line, and just pound every square inch of "palestine" territory - for about a month. THEN we'll have "peace talks".

#36 I absolutely love the look of shocked disbelief on his face, nothing like getting hit in the head by reality to knock some sense into his brain.

#37 RJ, I really doubt it knocked any sense into him. It probably reinforced his belief of how brutal and in sincetive the Israelis are. People like him never learn.

#38 I'm guessing 'Shanbo Heinemann' is an alias.

Shanbo is the personal name of a character in a famous Chinese folk tale. The Heinemann library at Oxford is famous for its collection of Chinese texts.

FWIW

#48 Rubber Bullets, or baton rounds, can be deadly at close range. There were over a dozen people killed in Northern Ireland during the Troubles. My friend had a few of them on his mantle in Belfast. You would not want to be hit with one.

#55 Minor abrasion. Looks like the rubber bullet hit him a glancing blow.

Rubber bullets are designed to cause painful bruising injuries and are normally fired at the legs of protestors.

This idiot probably dropped to the group to 'duck' the rubber bullet and got hit in the head as a result.
