Grr, Now it's no fun catching the bad guys

Stun guns.. Capsicum spray, Wide range of normal weapons.

They've got enough already

Interesting Slippy! Blast them so they fall down and puke, then give them a quick dose of heat and viola'! Flambaed baddies!

you make it sound like we need to be giving the bad guys a break.

I remember reading something ages ago that the US army were developing a weapon along the lines of the "brown wave" or "brown ray" or something like that.

Apparently the theory was that there was a frequency that disrupted the musculature of the bowel so when aimed at the baddies (hee I like that word baddies) and fired they would find themselves with the uncontrollable urge to empty their colon...

Makes for a messy arrest...

Chimpy, I think you were refering to Discovery Channel's The MythBusters and the persuit of "The Brown Note". Which, of course, does not exist. LOL, though I like the name "Brown Ray"! Might make tracking baddies easier on the scent dogs....

I've never heard of Mythbusters, but yeah it was a story from years and years ago. Did they actually try to develop such a weapon or was it all story and make believe?

Edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_note

Looks like it might have been a South Park episode I was watching...

DM gas was alegedly used in Aden and causes diahorea and vomiting if you get exposed to it. Same result different delivery and french riot police had a subsonic vibration gun in the 1970s to use on rioters.
