Ferguson police, demonstrating their IDF training so they are more like combat troops than police officers protecting people, shot an innocent pastor Wednesday during a protest in Ferguson, Missouri, as demonstrators clash with police over the fatal shooting of unarmed youth Michael Brown. Renita Lamkin, an African Methodist Episcopal church pastor, was "standing in the middle of the street, with people behind me, and the police were in front of me." Lamkin was attempting to mediate between police and protesters the demonstration and told the police, "They're moving, they're leaving." "And then there was a pop!" she said, as a rubber bullet struck her stomach. Photos of her injuries were sent to AnonymousOp, adding to the nation's questions about using such "non-lethal" projectiles that can cause serious wounds. Police shot an older unamed man earlier in the week after which he was rushed to the nearest hospital.
