Ferguson Policemen shooting - the gun

I am thinking from the medical stories, they were shot with a 22LR.
Guy hit top of shoulder, then the bullet turns and exits down his back.
Policeman shot below his eye, doesn't explode his head. It lodges behind his ear. Both are released from the hospital!

or magic bullets like used in Texas
If their are gangs of wild Africans rampaging,go out and shoot the ones that are a clear threat as well.
WACK'UM all and let AL and Jessy sort'em out!!
but no looting or burning or marching . if two of the protesters had been shot it would be Katie bar the door [:D]
Hit to the torso, cop is wounded but ok
This can only be the work of 9mm.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Hit to the face, cop is wounded but ok

Probably not from 125yds. That's reportedly the distance they were fired from. My guess would be .22's also, but until they say officially, we don't know for sure.
Some experts are saying the shooter is likely an anarchist/ communist type we saw at the Occupy "gatherings"
Too old to live...too young to die...
"I think it was a complete setup. I think it was a setup between members of the police fraternities, what I like to call it. I think they operate just like the KKK. I think they did it to make themselves think they're the victim, when honestly the victim are black people

BTW he is a muslim too[xx(]
That just goes to show you how jealously bl*cks will guard their sense of being a victim.[xx(]
Seems that the root-cause of gun violence in America are Leftists and inner-city minority males!
I know of two incidents here locally where people were shot in the face by a .40 cal (both on the check bone) and are out walking around fine today.
I've got a friend that is a Police Officer and he shot a guy armed with samurai sword once in the chest with a .40 and it dropped him where he stood, DRT. There are all sorts of variables that play into a bullet's effectiveness.
That being said I am wondering if the shot was taken with a pistol, pistol carbine like a hi-point carbine or sub 2000 or a .22. The NEWS just reported that the officer shot in the face was hit in the right cheek and the bullet is lodged near his ear. he has been released from the hospital. I would be surprised it if it were a high powered rifle round.

Good point, it'd have to have been close enough to induce powder burns for 9mm to have left those sorts of wounds.

News today reported they found several fired cases, didn't say what caliber.
Also stated the shots were fired from about 100 yards away.
And they were searching area roof tops, etc. [:0]
WTH, seems like the area to search would be where the cases were located. [:0]
What? Ferguson is in ruins, stores gutted by thug looters, decent people fleeing for their lives...but they got 22 ammo?
Now that is DAMN funny! God bless you, Doc!
you can hear the shots on the film,i think if it was a .22 from 125yds you would not hear them that loud. and from 125yds a hand gun is a stretch. may be a carbine shooting a pistol caliber. if it was a hand gun and from 125yds with two out of three shots hitting their target, who ever it was is a hell of a shot or the two officers are very unlucky. T.S. uncle albert,one of the i don,t give a crap crowd.
I have heard the audio- sounded like center fire to me.
