Almost all " non-lethal" munitions are really "less lethal" and capable of killing someone if they get hit in the wrong area. They also easily maim. I saw a pellet from what are called "donkey balls" which are essentially clay-more mines filled with little rubber pellets bounce off a wall fast enough to go through someone's cheek and exit out the other side of his mouth. TLDR You can really fuck someone up with that stuff. Cops think they are like nerf toys.

Those are the things the Jackass guys got shot with in the first movie. The company called it a “Stingmore” mine.

Way too many people are comfortable with utilizing anything referred to as a “mine” against unarmed civilians.
