"Non-lethal" is copaganda. Rubber bullets can still cause life changing injury like TBI and blindness, and even can still cause death (hexbear.net)

I've never head them referred to as 'non lethal'. Always been 'less than lethal'.

They are still projectiles hurled at great speed via a timed and controlled expulsion of gasses. You're gonna get fucked up if you're on the receiving end.

Not guaranteed dead, just probably dead, instead.

They started calling them that after people died from them.
