The article mentions some random employee speculating that the attackers were using rubber bullets. Let me ask one question: What kind of criminal buys rubber bullets?

And fires them undetected in San Francisco... I guess it's some Sniper Wolf perched a mile away with a silenced rifle waiting for hours at a time for a bus to pass.

An act like that is usually virtue-signalled all over social media.
Is (((someone))) planning on selling security solutions?

I doubt it was rubber bullets. Slingshots and gravel would do the job, attract little attention, and be easy to conceal.

I believe they sell ceramic slingshot ammo so you don't have to break your own spark plugs. Not sure if they have the sharp edges/corners for breaking glass though.

Pretty sure rubber bullets are only used by police and military police. I haven't actually seen anyone or anywhere sell them on market before

That was my point. It was a rhetorical question. It's probably some dumb millenial who's seen too many action movies talking out of his ass.

Where could you even buy them? I've never seen them for sale.

They'd be dead easy to make. Oil a lead bullet, cover it with low melting point hot melt glue, let the glue harden, pull the bullet out, oil the inside, squirt silicone caulk inside, and peel/melt the glue off when the silicone cures. Then pry the lead bullet out of a cartridge, and shoehorn the rubber one in.
The difficult part will be keeping the rubber from getting pushed into the cartridge in the magazine. I recommend bolt action to avoid this.
It would be easier to put a rubber slug in a shotgun shell.
