Seven NIJ awards were made on a so-called Less-Lethal Technologies solicitation in 2004, awarding over $2.1 million for the development and field testing of counter-personnel weaponry (that is, anti-people, anti-American weaponry): using lasers, radio frequency electromagnetic systems, electricity, and high frequencies to burn, bruise, shock, overheat, and “dazzle” humans.
NIJ LESS THAN LETHAL TECHNOLOGY TESTING FUNDING AWARDS, FROM 2002
Other Less Lethal technology awards exist, and further research clearly needs to be done to see how far back these awards go, and how and when these Less Lethal and Non Lethal and Less than Lethal technologies intended for police use were first tested in the field.
The NIJ “Penetration Assessment of Less than Lethal Munitions” award screenshot below, from 2002, came up on a search for Less than Lethal, a term originally used on military documents. The fact that NIJ sponsored this testing suggests the “munitions” were being considered for “Law Enforcement” use.
Also see the Grant Publication Abstract linked to it, revealing 1) that these were horrific tests conducted on Dead People, and 2) that these weapons are full-on assault and battery Military weapons using Projectiles intended to greatly harm, and that could incidentally kill, as Tasers do: https://nij.ojp.gov/library/publications/skin-penetration-assessment-less-lethal-kinetic-energy-munitions
A cursory search of the Paul Coverdell National Forensic Sciences Improvement Act Grant-FY2002 on which this proposal was funded reveals that other Less than Lethal technology testing programs were also funded in 2002, such as the Airport Security Grant screenshot below. Wording there also suggests that these “Less-than-Lethal” weapons, whether the same or not, were intended for use on humans. Would Americans permit such weapons to be in their vicinity at airports, and likely to be used on them?
Just One of the questions we all need to research, speak openly about, and answer, in relation to all of these kinds of weapons–which purport to be “less” and “other than” and “non” yet are indeed profoundly terrifying, and from reports–from both those targeted who suspect the use on their bodies of military directed energy technologies and from reports in the Press so far of military and Conducted Energy Devices (which include Tasers and Stun Guns)– injurious and sometimes lethal…
