That sounds like a good policy for the Baltimore yutes and the illegals at our southern border.

Agreed. If the Arab MRS don’t like it, see how they will like it if police and IDF personnel shoot them instead.

It’s about time. Rocks are deadly weapons (from David and Goliath to Trayvon pounding an innocent person’s head against concrete). I’m okay with shooting rock throwers or with charging them with assault with a deadly weapon and locking them up for many years. Violent crime cannot be tolerated.
