Default Mass shooting with non-lethal gun leaves 8 dead?

Seriously, how does that work? A non-lethal gun is used to kill 8 people? Will they blame, Trump, collusion, or assault gravity for killing those who jumped out of the windows?

And while we are on the subject, I am surprised Trump and Collusion weren't mentioned in an article about Russia. I guess since the current Potato of the United States was the Vice Potato when Russia took over the Crimea whoever wrote the article is giving him a pass?

Leave it to the AP for great reporting and editing

Mass shooting at Russian university, at least 8 dead: report
Some students reportedly jumped out of the windows of a building

Russian authorities on Monday responded to a mass shooting in the city of Perm, resulting in at least eight deaths and six injuries, The Associated Press reported, citing the country's Investigative Committee.

The suspect has been detained after the incident at Perm State University, according to officials. The state Tass news agency cited an unnamed source in the law enforcement as saying that some students jumped out of the windows of a building.


The perpetrator-- who was identified as a student in reports-- used a non-lethal gun, according to the Perm State University press service. Students and staff of the university locked themselves in rooms, and the university urged those who could leave the campus to do so.

The school is located about 800 miles east of Moscow, Reuters reported.

I believe they use "less lethal" rubber bullets, pistols and rifles.

Does not help if you get hit in the head. JMHO

Some could have got croaked jumping out of windows or trampled underfoot during the stampede. Also, the responding forces aren't exactly known for having consideration toward hostages.

So, we blame the assault gravity? Looks like we have one more thing to cancel.

You have a working brain and the libs don't, so your opinion doesn't matter.
