chipper 0 Posted June 13, 2007 You know that just might be crazy enough to actually work!!!! Hopefully the military puts a lot of money in developing this amazing weapon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
churnedfortaste 0 Posted June 13, 2007 It would be rather inhumane if it was a permanent effect, what with it being against the enemy soldier's will, but it makes you think what technology in the future will allow for non-violent warfare that isn't just intelligence-based...

Sc@tterbrain 0 Posted June 13, 2007 I love how this story has been totally manipulated and misrepresented. I first read about this in 2005, and at the time it was rumored to be a joke.  It was rather amusing but not nearly as "controversial" as its being played out to be. The concept was to create a "non-lethal" chemical weapon.  It's purpose was to disrupt enemy morale and unit cohesion. "the US Air Force Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio proposed a gay bomb research project (at a modest $7.5 million), which was rejected by the Pentagon in 1994." It didn't even go beyond some guys crazy concept. This is an old story that some have pretended to be outraged by...while struggling not to laugh.  I wonder how hard the guy who first called the concept the "gay bomb" is laughing while telling friends over a beer  "I swear, I thought that up!" "The document also included many other off-beat ideas, such as spraying enemy troops with bee pheromones and then hiding numerous beehives in the combat area." Just as whacky in concept, but not nearly enough to get your panties in a bunch over.  You can read the report yourself here. How dare the US military create a bomb that takes the advice of anti-war protestors" "Make love, not war" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ozanzac 0 Posted June 13, 2007 Old hack. Besides, the effects of such a weapon are already known to be long lasting. Just look at the Navy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ran 0 Posted June 13, 2007 Well ... sometimes it's dumb ideas that make it into history ... a Nation has once been eliminated by a giant wooden horse and later on some guy thought it could be interesting to use fireworks to kill one another. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr burns 131 Posted June 13, 2007 It works! First field testing conducted on Sahrani didn´t only make all men gay, but also drove all women away from the island. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
