TIJUANA, Mexico - The police department has issued about 60 slingshots to officers in the violent border city of Tijuana, where soldiers confiscated police weapons two weeks ago on allegations of collusion with drug traffickers.

I can tell you first-hand, a Marksman slingshot with steel ball bearings, can do quite a bit of damage within 25 feet. Much more so than a BB/pellet gun. I've put dents in car doors and even embedded a ball bearing in to solid wood from no less than 50 feet. Though, it is funny as hell, I wouldn't fuck with someone that was carrying one.

I think that the police in the US need to revert back to slingshots too.

right, but would you go chasing a gunman with your slingshot? Could you stop a coked out freak with a machete with your slingshot? If all I had was a slingshot I think I'd be a little less authoritarian.

all "less-than-lethal", except for the atomic wedgie... that's still banned.

I owna sling shot and I have hunted with it. I can kill small game with it quite easily and it will injure a grown human with the wrong use.
