Infrasound frequency makes protesters defecate involuntarily.
Activists Preparing Against Use of ‘Brown Note’ at Dem Convention

by Cristina Corbin
Tuesday, June 10, 2008






Political activists planning protest rallies at the upcoming Democratic Convention in Denver have their stomachs in knots over a rumor about a crowd control weapon - known as the “crap cannon” - that might be unleashed against them.

Also called “Brown Note,” it is believed to be an infrasound frequency that debilitates a person by making them defecate involuntarily.

Mark Cohen, co-founder of Re-create 68, an alliance of local activists working for the protection of first amendment rights, said he believes this could be deployed at the convention in August to subdue crowds.

“We know this weapon and weapons like it have been used at other large protests before,” he said.

Cohen, who described Brown Note as a “sonic weapon used to disrupt people’s equilibrium,” cited eyewitness accounts of its use during free-trade agreement protests in Miami in 2003.

6. Brainiac - Science Abuse did as well
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_note

"The brown note, according to an urban legend, is an infrasound frequency that causes humans to lose control of their bowels due to resonance. There is no scientific evidence to support the claim that a "brown note" (transmitted through sound waves in air) exists."

20. There's no scientific evidence that Recreate 68 is a progressive organization either
and not a COINTELPRO POS garbage.

29. Do you have any evidence it is COINTELPRO POS garbage?
If not, you're guilty of the same kind of shit COINTELPRO pulled. It's called "bad-jacketing."

7. Lots of people have been shitting themselves in GDP,
and it took a lot less than disrupting their equilibrium.

30. It's remarkable that medical science has not discovered this principle

...since it would be a boon to the treatment of acute constipation.

Why do you suppose this thing hasn't been put to medical use? Is the technology only known to a select few, and the medical community consists of nitwits?
