Newly released video shows the moments when Los Angeles police opened fire on a man who as holding a plastic fork. The officers appear to fire several non lethal rounds as the man continued to move toward them.  Officers initially responded to a 911 caller who claimed an armed homeless man was getting aggressive with an employee.

    Fair enough. My only correction, again, is that there are no such things as non lethal rounds.

      That’s what the article calls them. What do you call beanbag rounds and rubber bullets and stun guns? I see the term less lethal or less-than-lethal used.
