Loaded with "Scream?" They should be loaded with "Death!"

*REALLY LOUD BANG!

Personally speaking, I'd rather carry an M4 or one of those .50 cal sniper rifles.

Think about it: THIS way you can get perps alive for interrogation, and root out the REST of the scum. . .

This is fine if you want to catch someone alive--like a high-level terrorist planner--so that you can "extract" intelligence information. But it's absurd to suggest you would use this against any common soldier or terrorist (particularly a suicide bomber). For these low-level combatants, bullets, genades, or bombs are by far the best weapons.

When scream guns are banned, only babies will have them...

I was thinking the same thing.

Mascot of the deployed unit - the one eyed guy, or the hairy blurple monster.

The first thing I thoughr of when I heard this was that there was a similar weapon in Atlas Shrugged.

Spooky

US troops are to be armed with a stun gun that uses a baby's high-pitched scream

With my luck I'd run into a deaf suicide bomber.

Proof once again that Mother Nature still makes the best weapons! I have been in stores and heard babies scream - it goes right to the central nervous system.
