Hate to break it to you but this picture is obviously photoshopped. The shadowing on her cheek is dodged an burned into oblivion and the injuries have serious pixelation around the edges under magnification. To have caused a welt that large would have bruised her severely and easily broken her jaw.
It's hosted on Yahoo. How does that make it real?Originally posted by thaflyinfatman

I have been shot with wax bullets, the baton rounds, the rubber pellets (those REALLY sucked), and been exposed to tear gas and been sprayed with pepper spray.
None of the non-lethal rounds will cause such a wound - I know.
That is an Associated Press photo, I doubt they are going to risk their reputation and possible lawsuits for something like that.Originally posted by Ranger

BTW - part of riot control training in the military is having things that you would use against a crowd - used against you.

good. i hate these anti war protesters. i am all for self expression and free speach, and i rarely use that word (hate), but once the bullets start flying, shut up with the anti war movement, or pack up for france.Originally posted by shifty S

Does someone have the original link to the story or somewhere that I can see that it's an official AP photo? The picture looks mighty suspicious to me but I'm not one to shy away from being incorrect. If it's the real thing, than it's the real thing.

They shot her with either a wooden dowel rod, or a bag gull of rocks. And... I saw her on a local news program (video, not still) and it looked just like that.Originally posted by Ranger

I've heard this a lot, and to be honest it makes no sense. Why would anyone with any convictions stop being anti-war just because there actually IS one. That's like asking someone to stop being pro-life just because their friend already HAD the abortion. It is possible to be against the act but still support the person. Should they suddenly start saying "oh, abortion is just fine," if it goes against everything they believe in?Originally posted by Warped
It's fine to protest war but once it starts show some support. By protesting you're not keeping anyone alive over there. Serves the bastard right, especially since she obviously took the protesting too far.
