New Weapon? involuntary defecation....
Political activists planning protest rallies at the upcoming Democratic Convention in Denver have their stomachs in knots over a rumor about a crowd control weapon - known as the “crap cannon” - that might be unleashed against them.

Also called “Brown Note,” it is believed to be an infrasound frequency that debilitates a person by making them defecate involuntarily.

Default It's bunk

No known evidence of this "weapon" exists. Urban Myth. This thread should be closed or deleted as a case of spam.

Wasn't there an episode of "South Park" about this a few years back? They called it the Brown Noise- I think. I wonder if Comedy Central is the source for this article?

There is no article that I can find on foxnews.com. I did an extensive search using all of the names mentioned as well as the "key words."

Mullenite, did I miss something? If there is such a link please post it. Otherwise, I agree with Mike, you are just trolling.

Thanks, TnHilltopper. I wonder why when using their search feature it didn't come up for me.

Never heard of it as a legit weapon (well, outside of movies, etc..). Though if you have ever had a roommate working on their MBA in chemistry who liked to pull pranks, you might have experienced this used in a similar manner. That and having your urine glow a neon green. *chuckle*
