Turns out NOPD DID use rubber bullets, after denials

A lot of the more experienced officer still believe this is the Marc Morial / Richard Pennington "crack sculls" NOPD.
Ferguson is a cop's cop, the complete opposite of Serpas. He probably was fine with the use of the rubber bullets, but he's probably pissed AF that he was lied to.

"I have since learned that we did, in fact, our special operations division did, in fact, use what is called rubber balls, or stinger rounds, on the bridge," Ferguson admitted at a news conference. "As such, our force investigation team, under the leadership of Deputy Superintendent (Arlinda) Westbrook has launched a formal investigation."
The chief said the department will not only investigate the use of the anti-riot rounds, which the chief says was not authorized, but also why he was told that it didn't happen.
"Why wasn't I given that information on that night? There was a break down" of internal messaging, said Ferguson.

Tired of everyone talking about this shite non-stop. Can we go back like 6 months to when no one gave a shite?

That's it. Time to dissolve NOPD.

Says a lot about the ranks if your people are straight lying knowing they will eventually be caught.

One thing that should be clear to everyone after all of this is just how much law enforcement agencies lie.

Why even have them if you’re not going to use them?

I would imagine they would be used in a time and place.

When used appropriately, rubber bullets are a great invention. Hurts like a mf'er but doesnt kill anyone.
Posted on 6/8/20 at 3:36 pm to LSUFanHouston
Ok ? Why did they use it? Should they have used mace or real bullets?

I live in a city of 35K. no other towns or communities of any significance in the county. The city pd handles all city law enforcement. wtf does my sheriff's dept have a paramilitary unit?

I feel like this is going to be a contest to see who the biggest moron in New Orleans is. Westbrook typically has the inside track, but we shall see.

"When used appropriately"
That's the key. We have PDs out here firing them directly at people and have resulted in cracking skulls, broken bones, huge lacerations, etc.
If they can't even use the shite appropriately why are they entrusted with the equipment at this point?
