On Sunday morning intrepid Huffington Post “federal law enforcement and legal news” reporter Ryan J. Reilly (yes, one of the two reporters arrested in a Ferguson McDonald’s) breathlessly took to Twitter to confirm what he probably was hoping was some kind of a scoop. You won’t believe the shocking evidence he found:

Rubber bullets, earplugs, who could ever know the difference?
One can only imagine the disappointment and shame when he saw the instant mockery piling in and he was forced to report what was obvious to the rest of us:

Of course, it being Twitter and all, hilarity ensued:

Poor Reilly was all sore about people calling him out on his stupid, but rather revealing, mistake:
.@ryanjreilly Knowing difference between earplugs and rubber bullets is something you should know. Not something you crowdsource.

Thank you, Reilly, for providing a little unintentional comedic relief during a tense situation out there in Ferguson, we all could use a laugh!
He didn’t know what rubber bullets looked like.
He saw earplugs lying on the ground and thought they were rubber bullets.
This is only ‘something’ to people who have a lame, ulterior agenda because of his politics and their politics.
HAHA THAT LIBBY LIBBY LIBERAL DIDN’T EVEN KNOW EARPLUGS FROM RUBBER BULLETS WHERE’S THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!!
The criticism is considerably more embarrassing than the initial question, which was simply posted to twitter to ask before published.
“Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,” Romans 1:22
He is perfect example of what moronic liberal buttwipes the typical HP reporter is. Also gives you an idea about how carefully they vet their pronouncements.
These are the same horses asses who regularly portray blacks as victims and murderous Hamas terrorists as great guys.
Yo, YO, YO whut up?
There could be no better proof of the liberals being mentally stunted and lacking ANY credibility in ANYTHING happening in the USA. Their utter disdain for the truth or facts. Their determined attitude of superiority over any and all with regular REAL life knowledge. Real integrity comes from EARNED respect something they decidedly despise in favor of forced worship of their PHD’s and their PROVEN failures. The very idea that you would voice an opinion on ANYTHING you have no grasp of or information on is proof of mental instability.
