HuffPo reporter doesn’t know difference between earplugs and rubber bullets
It’s bad enough the media is utterly biased. It’s even worse when reporters assigned to cover crime stories like the Ferguson shooting don’t even know the difference between earplugs and rubber bullets.
But that’s exactly what happened Sunday Morning when Huffington Post reporter Ryan Reilly tweeted this:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Naturally, those a bit more in the know schooled Reilly.

That’s because they ARE earplugs…
@JimmyPrinceton @MushKat @ryanjreilly u can't tell the dif between a ear plug and a rubber bullet and you report? We are so f'd!

Agreed…
“@RBPundit: Never, ever write about guns. Never. It’s clear you have probably never even touched a Nerf gun. @ryanjreilly” Or a shop tool.

Probably true.
Gun? I'm not certain he's ever touched a power tool, or actually put on pants. @RBPundit @ryanjreilly

Very true. Is anyone taking notes over at the Huffington Post?
For Reilly’s benefit, this is a rubber bullet.
These are also rubber bullets:
