@nowthisimpact: Do we really have the right to protest in the U.S. if doing so peacefully could still lead to permanent physical harm? Protesters have recorded ICE testing an LRAD — a long range acoustic device — a so‑called less‑than‑lethal weapon that blasts sound louder than a jet engine as a deterrent. Using the device can cause permanent hearing loss, tinnitus, ruptured eardrums, vertigo, and intense panic responses. A U.S. court has ruled that using LRADs to intentionally injure protesters can violate constitutional protections against excessive force.

Ratacienta :

In America they give you permanent loss hearing for protesting.

ᵣₑ̂ :

Only in Dictatorships it's illegal to protest...

WireGremlin :

the interesting part is that you can't hear it, but you can hear the noise it's makes on the objects it hits. it's some odd stuff

Annie’s Fluid Art :

Earplugs provide significant, but not total, protection against Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRAD), which can cause hearing damage. Foam earplugs can reduce noise by roughly 15–35 dB and are effective against the high-frequency sounds (1-5 kHz) that LRAD systems primarily use. For maximum safety, using high NRR-rated earplugs combined with earmuffs is recommended
