India Developing Weaponized Chili Peppers

[lacktheknack]

I can think of one way women could use the chili to fend off rapists, but it might backfire.

If I read you right, that would basically leave them not raped, but it would feel like the world's worst yeast infection.

Although it might actually FIX a yeast infection.

Hahaha, nice one.

So, when terrorists are being trained they will have to eat a lot of peppers

To understand how HOT this thing is, spray the inside of your mouth with pepper spray, then lower the heat you feel by about three percent.

You can only be born immune to this stuff.

These things are also known as the Ghost Pepper. and my dad is growing some at home.

I have eaten thai chili peppers, some really fresh ones when I was in Thailand for a while. These are significantly hotter, I can't imagine what eating one strait would be like.

Finally, a weapon even vegeterians can approve of!

I don't know of any weapons made of meat...?

 

[Irridium]

Wow, this sure is interesting...

Looks like things in India *puts on sunglasses* are heating up.

Spoiler: You made me do this, Irridium!

...

I've created a monster!

You do realise that sausages are made in chains right?
Think on that for a while now...

OT: Well, I've heard of a "friend of a friend" eating one, and not being able to speak for half an hour, so they seem pretty hot, and it's interesting that India is developing weapons like this, considering that as a mostly hindu culture they'd turn away from war as much as possible.
But that could also be said about Christians too...

Back On Topic again: Having it for self defense purposes sounds pretty interesting, though I'm unsure how it would keep away wild elephants, considering their thick skin.

No, it was always there.

You just fed it some dinner!

Actually, I could make another Miami joke with that...

 

[Cherry Cola]

We all knew this was comi- Wait, what? Weaponized Peppers?

Either way, this is awesome.

Spoiler: Is it as awesome as... this?

I will never tire of this

 

[Nuke_em_05]

Sounds a bit inhumane. Like mustard gas only it doesn't kill you.

Like mustard gas only no permanent damage.

Maybe... more like conventional pepper spray only stronger and in grenade form?

Or tasers? (provided they don't have a pacemaker)

Or rubber bullets? (actually, those can do some lasting damage)

OT:

Good stuff, Non-lethal option > Lethal option.

As long as those who are authorized to use it understand it is still a last resort option. i.e. police who carry pepper spray (at least in WA, last time I checked, a long time ago), have to be exposed to it first so they understand what they are putting the assailant through, such that they do not abuse it just because it is "convenient" and "non-lethal".

 

[More Fun To Compute]

Am I the only person who has heard of pepper spray? Not sure why this is new.

 

[Irridium]

No! Don't! The internet wouldn't be able to take another!

AAAHHHHHH!!

The weaponised-steak.

Basically, you get a steak, freeze is and whack someone.
Then eat the evidence

 

[Jared]

Sounds like a pretty good Non-Lethal weapon to me.

Lon-Lethal...and will teach you not to try again for a second time.

Good choice

I suddenly see a lot of black-market opportunity for capsaicin-receptor-inhibiting drugs. You're one shot away from being immune to pepper spray!

...Writing that down.

 

[manythings]

In my mind I'm seeing a soldier pinned down clutch the stalk in his teeth, yanking it out and hurling the pepper over his cover...

It means you can't detect it not that you are invulnerable to it. It would still sting the fuck out of your eyes and make you choke.

Methinks you have a very loose understanding of how mustard gas works.
