A Huffington Post reporter whose profile has been elevated by his arrest in Ferguson, Missouri while covering protests and riots in the aftermath of Michael Brown's death mistook ear plugs for rubber bullets Sunday.
Ryan J. Reilly, who was arrested Wednesday night after police asked him to leave a McDonald's as protesters closed in, learned the hard way that Twitter can be a place where your thumbs move faster than your mind—and where every mistake you make is saved forever.

I retract that suggestion, they are earplugs. Apologies.

It never ceases to amaze me how stupid some of these reporters can be.

Im guessing Ryan grew up on the mean streets of the Hamptons or something.

What a dumbass. Did he even pick one up? My sons nerf gun would do more damage than those foam ear plugs.

The sad thing is millions of people trust what people like this say on TV.

Hopefully nobody confirms.

he apologizes in next tweet for pretty much being stupid. People must of crushed him on twitter once he posted it.

Huffington Post... not a real news agency.

Ryan is a dumb frick

Those actually used to be used as rubber bullets by riot police until they discovered deaf people were impervious to them.
Posted on 8/17/14 at 11:03 pm to Slinky
Same types that spout off about high capacity "clips" and "military style assault rifles". Don't know shite about shite.
