First up is hand-thrown grenades. There are a lot of different types of less-lethal or "crowd control" grenades. The three popular types are currently flash bangs, gas and stingball/stinger. Flash bangs are literally a small explosive charge inside a shell that lets the sound/concussive force out, but doesn't produce shrapnel. Some are perforated plastic, some are metal that banana-peels out upon detonation.

It's another round of large protest events, so I'm going to do something I've done on 
in the past. A thread on police less-lethals, how to spot them and how cops use them. This is going to include a lot of imagery of weapons, and descriptions of how they can injure or kill someone.

You've probably seen flash bangs on TV. What they don't tell you is that they're some of the most dangerous less-lethals. People get burned by them pretty frequently in no-knock raids, and some can cause injuries bad enough to cost you a limb, which did happen during the NoDAPL protests. (The cops were cooking grenades off so they'd detonate earlier, and one destroyed a water protector's arm.)

This... is me.
The Warframe, which is supposed to be my suit, fights alongside me. He is me and I am him and we fight as one.

@Ulfra_Wolfe I really love seeing @catoutofbed @SilviaFox and @maple on my timeline
you're all just fun and wonderful, and part of why I love mastodon 
Hey y'all! Express some love to each other. Name one person you really like in this thread that is not me, and say why you like them.
You can name any other more than that, just not me. Leave my ego out of this one. <3

In more cheerful news, apparently Michael Cohen (whose shredded documents are being reassembled by the FBI as we speak) has lost 20 pounds since the raid.
Good. Good good good.

@Ulfra_Wolfe "I am dust and ashes, and for my sake was the world created." I'm apparently having a real ethnic day here, or something.
"Your name is in the mouth of others: be sure it has teeth."
Very Mercenary saying.
Ulfra's version is "be sure it always has a hug."
I'm one of billions on a floating speck of dust in space, I gotta stop letting little things get me down.
