The Minneapolis City Council have made a non-binding resolution to oppose the use of tear gas, rubber bullets, and other "less lethal" weapons against protestors. These kind of weapons have been notoriously used within the last year to shoot the eyes out of journalists here in Minneapolis, among other horrifying abuses.

The council does not, of course, currently have the ability to actually ban the use of these weapons because--as everyone should know by now--the cops in Minneapolis are under the control of the mayor, not the city council, and Frey is a huge xxxxx who lets the police walk all over him and will never do anything to support meaningful police reform in Minneapolis. https://lims.minneapolismn.gov/file/2021-00473 https://lims.minneapolismn.gov/Download/RCA/17450/Less%20Lethal%20Weapons%20Resolution.pdf
