President Trump made a horrifying recommendation. He “suggested shooting migrants in the legs to slow them down while they attempt to cross the Southern border.”
Unfortunately, this does not appear to be a tactic he thought up all by himself. Israel has done this itself.
The Great March of Return protests along the Gaza fence have continued since last year and Israeli snipers target the legs more than any other part of the body.
Doctors Without Borders reports that leg injuries are especially difficult to heal as they ted to be more complicated and as pressure is placed on the legs when moving around.
