"Marines' weapon loaded with 'scream' "
"Anyone hit with a full blast would suffer excruciating pain, permanent deafness and some form of cellular damage. A prolonged blast could kill.......The actual sound used is a recording of a baby's scream played backwards."
Didn't they see Monster's, Inc? Laughter is ten times as powerful as Scream.

Posted by: LeeAnn at April 1, 2004 05:50 PMThat's very disturbing. Of course I have no sympathy for terrorists or terrorist sympathizers but a weapon that can cause permanent deafness is inhumane. I thought we were better than that.
