This is the corpse of Anna Maria von Stockhausen. After death she was strapped down to keep her in her grave. According to folklore, Stockhausen was a witch who resurrected herself 5 times.
Just learned that the NYPD apparently edited their own fucking Wikipedia page to make themselves look better π

If its been changed, its been changed back as of 7/23/2020 (screenshot below). Anyone who says Wikipedia doesnβt fact check is big time wrong. They got rigid sourcing guidelines for a reason.Β
YOURE TELLING ME THIS IS WHAT THEYβVE BEEN SHOOTING PROTESTERS WITH????
YEP! These are meant to be skipped into the ground and then spin into peopleβs legs and dissuade people from advancing or move them away. FIRING THEM AT PEOPLEβS HEADS IS 100% AGAINST THE PROPER USE.
AND THEY ARE SHOOTING THESE AT MEDICS. DOCTORS, EMTS, AND NURSES. AT CLOSE RANGE.
THESE CAN BREAK YOUR SKULL. THEY ARE NOT A JOKE.
THIS IS LESS LETHAL LIKE A BASEBALL BAT IS LESS LETHAL THAN A SWORD. BOTH STILL CAN KILL.I only found out today theyβre meant to be fired at the ground to bounce back at protestersβ¦ I donβt thinkΒ Iβve ever seen the cops use them that way
Theyβre also often actually metal with a thin coating of rubber.
Hi.
Your buddy from the ammo industry here.
1) these are absolutely not supposed to be fired directly at people, they are supposed to be fired indirectly.
2) they can kill and seriously injure people
3) this type of βrubber bulletβ (often called a βfoam batonβ or βrubber batonβ round) is a lightweight projectile that will nonetheless fuck you up. Iβve loaded and worked with foam batons and rubber shot for a long time and in all the time Iβve worked with people who were loading and firing rubber bullets with police departments Iβve never encountered any version of a 37 or 40mm baton round that has a βthin layer of rubber over a metal core,β which is a description Iβve seen a lot of in the last few days and wanted to correct.
And yetβ¦
Yep, ACAB.
What I will say, and I know itβs cold comfort, is that everyone in photos like these has an incredible case against these PDs because the rounds theyβre firing say right on the casing that theyβre not to be fired except by properly trained users in appropriate ways so either this is a trained person who ignored the training and can be held liable or this is an untrained person whose department should be held liable
They 100% know this is not how these are supposed to be used and they are intentionally misusing them in ways they are aware make the weapons more lethal and will later claim they didnβt know better. Theyβre lying, and everyone should know theyβre lying.
