After Los Angeles Street was reopened on 10/22 the following were recovered

from the street in front of Parker Center (LAPD Headquarter):

spent projectiles:

A. black, grape-sized hard rubber bullets

B. black dense-foam column discs with a hole through the center

C. black, hard-plastic cylinder (closed at the front end & with bull-nosed,

blue-rubber covered end

spent casings:

A. Defense Technologies No. 20F 37/38mm Multiple Baton Foam Rounds

(silver metal with black lettering)

B. Defense Technologies No. 28B 37/3mm Stingers

(black plastic with white lettering)

C. Defense Technologies No. 1006 40mm eXact iMpact (silver with black

lettering)

The names "Multiple Baton", "Stinger" & "eXact iMpact" might lead you to

believe these are intended for human targets. However, the "WARNING" on 20F

says:

"Do not fire directly at person(s) as serious injury or death could result"

The 28B casing reads:

1. Not intended to be fired directly at persons

2. Use only in accordance with manufacturer's instructions, and after

receiving proper training.

3. Misuse could result in serious physical injury or death.

The casings also all state "To be used only by law enforcement and

corrections personnel trained in riot control tactics" (No.1006 substitutes

"military" for "corrections").

I put this info out to email groups but I didn't post it here on IMC. I also didn't write the comment at the top (just under my email address). My children & my identity are all that I've got (which is plenty actually). I do not appreciate having my name misused by an unknown person attributing comments to me that I didn't write. I WOULD appreciate it if the individual would post his/her actual identity & an apology here.
