CROWD CONTROL STINKER

Leave it to those damn Jews to come up with a real stinker. Seriously though, it looks like the "skunk bomb" is a really terrific and effective device for crowd control. America’s police, please take note!

Israel has recently developed a chemical bomb for crowd control and dispersing rioters that some are referring to as the "skunk bomb."

The skunk bomb is touted as the smelliest weapon in the world, and has been developed as an alternative to using rubber bullets or tear gas for crowd control. Wired.com reports that the new chemical device emits an overpowering smell that is similar to raw sewage.

To add insult to injury, the intense smell of the skunk bomb attaches quickly to the skin and clothes and is very difficult to wash out. The stench is described as so intense, that even hardened activist and protesters who can withstand tear gas, usually turn and run after just one sniff.

The horrible smell of the skunk bomb is caused by a particularly foul smelling chemical. It is in fact an artificial recreation of the fluid emitted by skunks to scare off predators. Scientist from the Israeli Ministry of Defense analyzed the chemical compound skunks release when threatened, and used reverse engineering to create a synthetic version of the liquid.

The resulting chemical bomb has to be handled with care, and used at a safe distance to prevent back draft. The goal of the skunk bomb is to disperse protesters or rioters, though once they have been sprayed with a smelly liquid, police would likely be unable to arrest them because of the intense stench.
