MODERATORS
Because most of them have a core of metal or other high density material and a softer exterior. It's like wrapping a brick in a couple of layers of bubble wrap and hitting someone if the face with it.
Well, you have to have something heavy to hold enough inertia to have a deterring impact.
How else are you supposed to suppress the growing second class citizenry? Communicate?
No, more like wrapping metal in rubber, as you had described. No need to downplay it.
It's like getting the end of one of these lobbed at you:
Yeah, in a different thread there were some drawings too.
Until today, I imagined rubber projectile being something that's just something fast but soft, perhaps something that even disintegrates on impact.
Kind of like paintball.
