Ballbearings launched from slingshots are serious weapons ... the cannon fodder are being herded into sacrificial positions.

I don’t understand why they keep herding cats night after night. They hit them on two sides and drive them away which just lets them circle back around and start again.

Surround them and then let them sit there all night, as you arrest them one by one. Truck the whole lot to the front porch of the new DA and release them there.

The Striker is an exceedingly poor weapon.

The Striker and Streetsweeper were declared destructive devices under the National Firearms Act with no sporting purpose by Treasury Secretary Lloyd Bentsen in 1994 and their transfer and ownership is regulated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).[8]

Yup.

This guy gives a pretty good idea of what a ball bearing with a slingshot can to.

Not something to be taken lightly.

You can KILL a groundhog with a ballvearing from a strong slingshot, a ballbearing in the size of a 38 caliber bullet. We didn’t have rubber tubing so we used the rubber from tire tubes, doubled. At twelve I could barely pull it back to aim the weapon.

It’s past time to shoot about 30 or 40 of these idiots. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Shooting a ball bearing is equivalent to shooting a bullet. Cops’ lives are in danger, so they should shoot back.
