Oh great, when is that weapon going to be used on citizens.

[–] Waggles@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I'm no expert, but that sounds like a weapon that would violate some international treaties.....like the Geneva convention

Why do you think they are over using the term, NarcoTerrorist? Because, he doesn't have to follow the international laws when fighting terrorists.

What international laws, he only needs to follow his own morality

You have use a shield. I have seen speculation that a satellite dish or maybe something with a similar shape may be able to redirect the waves back at the operator. I'm not an expert, so I'd sure like to know if this has been verified.

Above a certain decibel value, its acting more like a microwave, where all your fleshy meat beats are being wobbled by the pressure wave, and that's what causes the damage. (If they're talking about lrad and not those blmbs the russians were dropping that hit with suck a high pressure shockwave that they cause nausea, vomiting, and rupture blood vessels at medium to long distance )
