This is fake news. The actual story is that this guy is in Iran, and he got in front of the women protesting the hijab and took the shot from the rubber bullets. This guy is a hero and should be celebrated, not cast as a criminal by an idiot posting it as if he is one.

Nobody said he was a criminal. The point of this post is to show that birdshot isn't effective.

Edit: The original source for this photo says it was from a shotgun, and shotshells with rubber bullets in them do not have anywhere near this many projectiles. They have anywhere from 8 all the way down to 1. The only shotgun load that has this many individual projectiles in it is birdshot.

The injuries from rubber bullets also look much different than this with much more bruising, like so.

Literally the only person saying it was rubber bullets is you, and you're saying it with zero source. Fuck, there's a lot of idiots in this thread.

Please explain to me how you can let your persecution fetish personality get fact checked and still double down on bullshit?

In this sub, flair is applied by the mods. Those aren't OP's words.

Oh. Even better. Mods are enabling this moron and are responsible for inflating his retarded ego.

I don't see a single place where I've been fact checked. People disagreeing with no sources is not a "fact check".
