    It's rubber bullets thankfully. (Well not thankfully, but at least it wasn't live ammunition). There was a lot of confusion, I also thought it was live ammunition. Yeah you can get rubber 5.56 and 7.62 rounds in South Africa. And rubber 12 guage slugs. But seriously fuck that. Imagine defending a shopping mall with your life. Just probably a bunch of racist settlers enacting their shooting fantasies. Lots of racist people are using the protests as an excuse to do this, guarding shopping malls and shit. There is a video of one of these racists enacting the whole "rooftop Koreans" thing and racially abusing black people outside the store. We unfortunately have a lot of these tools in South Africa.

    Also please put a content warning on this post, they're literally shooting people with rubber bullets.

    Also holy shit that comments section on :reddit-logo: what is that fash shit

      About one precarious step away from "those n****** deserved it", nothing terribly new.
