    He was arguing both though if I recall correctly, he said that Russian grenades weren’t able to kill, and were designed to maim, so that guy was alive and in terrible pain. When in reality he was probably only alive for a few seconds after the second one and was probably unconscious for it.

    He was arguing that since Russian grenades were stun grenades, that the whole thing was super painful and he felt every minute of it. But the guy was trying to tell him that once he sustained that level of injury, the brain shuts off.

    I guess I’d look back on exactly what he was saying if he didn’t scrub his comments.

    I mean, technically a grenade isn’t meant to specifically kill, it’s supposed to throw shrapnel in an area that can hit multiple enemies or enemies under cover. It’s more of a utility explosive. If it so happens to hit the right spots to kill someone, that’s awesome but the reason they are used is because they are so good at hitting a lot of shit in an area, The enemy will have a harder time fighting back full of shrapnel. Having a better engineered grenade can help it’s probability of killing, but again, a grenade is just throwing shrapnel in a radius and hoping the people in the area are in the right path of the shrapnel to kill. The closer you are to the detonation site the more shrapnel you get hit with, so the more lethal it gets. To a point, if I remember correctly in us grenades the shrapnel doesn’t go evenly around the grenade and the top where the pin is fairly free of shrapnel, so if you were directly overtop of it and it was standing straight up, your legs would be fucked, but your butthole wouldn’t be entirely full of hot metal. So when you throw it and it lands on its side there’s a chance that it wouldn’t hit you depending on how far away you are and how close you are to the safe zone

    My father, was hit by a grenade in Iraq so this happens to be something I know a little bit about. He was a combat engineer and survived the explosion, so I heard all about military explosives growing up.

    But the Russian military uses f1 grenades, they are less powerful than what the US uses, but still very very deadly, coming in at like 270,000 joules.

    somewhat conservative

    You then use liberal like it was burning a hole through your pocket lol

    What British philosopher are you referring to? One of the founding fathers? Thomas paine or Samuel Addams? They were pretty good philosophers

    Congratulations, you can comprehend the constitution, we do have religious freedom, so suck my dick, I will not worship your god. And though you cultist would gladly lay waste to everything that constitution stands for to make every American follow your values. For example: gay people,abortion, your feelings on communism, atheists, if it’s not white.

    you don’t give a fuck about other people’s rights or the constitution, you’re the first that wants to take rights away from others and the first to cry “but my constitution” when they try to do anything against what you want. But Jesus fucking Christ, not everyone believes in your stupid god.
