    I’ll keep repeating this because I think it’s important

    Wear safety glasses

    Not sunglasses, or shades or prescription glasses

    Wear actual industrial rated workers safety glasses.

    If you get those shots in your face, you’re going to lose an eye or both eyes. Safety glasses are designed for this kind of stuff and they actually work. It will stop those projectiles from damaging your eyes.

    Cops all over the world are known to purposefully shoot people’s faces and heads. After the fact they will just argue that it didn’t happen, it was accidental, it was chaotic, it was dangerous, etc, etc … it won’t matter after the fact if you lose an eye or end up completely blind.

    Wear safety glasses, they’re easy to find and easy to use.

      Copying info from another thread:

      Anything ANSI Z87+, sometimes written Z87.1+ (note the plus) rated or CSA Z94.3 rated are ensured to safely withstand a direct high energy strike.

      ANSI Z87 (Z87.1) is a lesser qualification only meant for lighter duty. Use them if you can’t find Z87+ or Z94.3.

      I checked my local hardware stores and while Z87+ is fairly hard to find outside of places that directly supply contractors, CSA Z94.3 ratings are common under $10 but are less loudly marketed. Check the packaging carefully.

      3M is a common and high quality supplier, but anything with an official rating is risking pretty severe penalties from OSHA and commercial liability, so really you should be able to trust them.

    Is she one of the “insurrectionists”? Must be, right? Otherwise why would a jackbooted thug shoot her? I mean she did provoke him, by ya know, showing the world what these fascists are doing. I hope there ends up being an honest to god revolution, and I hope all of these pigs are the first to go. Fuck them.

      It was about a fucked up situation and the fucked up police
      It’s about comin’ up and stayin’ on top
      And screamin’ 1-8-7 on a mother fuckin’ cop
      It ain’t in the paper, it’s on the wall
      National guard
      Smoke from all around
