Their for awhile (3-5 yrs ago I think) their was talk about Sonic Weapons being used for crowd control/enemy crippling, whatever happened to using those in say Portland/Seattle/SF, etc? I am sure the NG and true Military have access to these in some cases.
From Popular Mechanics article by Lynne Peskoe-Yang
Audio producer Cory Choy was reporting on the 2014 Black Lives Matter protests in New York City when he first experienced sound as a weapon.
“Horrible, nauseating pain hit my body,” he tells Popular Mechanics, “and then I realized it was sound. At first you just think, ‘What’s happening to me?’ Your body goes into complete pain and panic mode. It’s the sound equivalent of looking into the sun.”
Despite his professional-grade headphones, the effect of the weapon—a long-range acoustic device, or LRAD—was so disorienting at first that Choy couldn’t tell which way to run and was forced to randomly pick a direction. But he was lucky.
“People in the direct line of fire [of the LRAD] didn’t run,” he says. “They just dropped to the ground and started screaming.”
They should use them at the border.
