Mother Jones Investigates FN303 Weapon Behind Protest Injuries
Original: The Little-Known Weapon Behind Some of the Worst Protest Injuries in America https://www. motherjones.com/criminal-justi
Mother Jones reports that the FN303, a less-lethal launcher made by FN America that fires pepper-spray projectiles, is linked to some of the worst injuries suffered by protesters in the United States. The article examines how the weapon, used by law enforcement at demonstrations, has caused severe head and eye trauma, and raises questions about its classification and police use during protest policing, including recent operations connected to immigration enforcement.
Why now: Renewed debate over police use of less-lethal munitions at protests and immigration raids.
