This is what the police live for, firing explosives at kids...

    The AFP news agency, citing a police union source, reported that the student appeared to have picked up a sting-ball grenade fired by riot police, which exploded in his hand.

    Single sentence horror story?

    Wait they use "non-lethal" grenades that have explosive charge after launching. So the "grenade" is for real grenade, but hey they changed the metal shrapnel jacket to sting balls

    This was event just waiting to happen. That weapon shouldn't be in the use in the first place

    It's insane, and there are still people defending this bullshit, even blaming the victim. Along the lines of "Why would you pick up something the police shot at you? That's your own fault!". Completely ignoring the fact that the police shot an explosive at schoolkids.

    From what I see the police is far much more violent than any protesters. Maybe the adults should start to join, go on general strike and defend their children against the police. Also on the legal front. All involved police should be detained and put to trial. No sane human thinks it's a good idea to even bring explosives to a student protest.

    Alternative title: Regime crackdown on youth protests results in heavy injuries and mass arrests.

    Human rights watchdog which is based in London reports that situation is quickly deteriorating amid struggle between youth democracy groups and Saudi-backed regime.

    We have recorded undercover cops getting among protesters to attack other cops in order to justify their violence

    Sounds like a nightmare, a nightmare which you would normally have, except he is living with it!

    They are just doing their job. I mean, sinking, mutilating and traumatizing kids and workers
