For some reason I've always had an obsession with non-lethal weapons. Shotguns filled with bean bags, rubber bullets, water cannons, tasers (well most of the time) no matter it just seemed to catch my interest.

So when I read this: TheStar.com - News - Ray guns pack heat you can imagine my excitement.

The technology really is exciting. Here is a diagram of how it works: http://www3.thestar.com/static/PDF/070125_pain_injury.pdf

So I guess this means no more World's Wildest Riot Videos.

that is frickin insane. i wanna see someone get hit with it!

 

[sandiegoryu]

O wow. So it does not really harm you at all? like none?! its totally psychological?! I'll finish reading in the morning lol.

But that is cool. I'm not a big fan of things that kill people... because they kill people... but this is interesting.

It's all fun and games until someone has their eye burned.

While the 130-degree heat was not painful, it was intense enough to make the participants think their clothes were about to ignite.

Airman Pernell fails to remember that it was already 130 degrees in Iraq.

Suicide bomber 1: "You feel anything, Bob?"
SB2: "It just got a little bit cooler, I think."

Not INSIDE your body however!

Send a carrier of them to iraq!

I know... it was a joke.

I really hate that NYS makes Tasers and Mace illegal to carry.
I'm not looking to incapacitate someone, just it sure would be
nice to have something to gain that extra chance to get away :icon_frow

Joey...pepper spray and a swift kick in the balls.

That's a really neat weapon. I'd also like to see it in action, I know what it's like to have a hot flash I couldn't imagine what it would be like to experience that. I bet by 2030 we'll be using them to show our hubby's what it's like to have a hot flash! JK (LQTM)

Bizzare...my personal fav non-lethal device:

Sound cannons!

And stuff like Infrasound - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and Sonic weaponry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And yes, I know the "Brown note" might not be real, but I've heard these notes at close proximity and it certainly was effective at making me ill feeling...

sounds like a good torture device

be nice if there was a pocket version of that. typical key-chain 110db battery powered horns and whistles are pretty useless.
