Quoted: Now only if American politics were that entertaining. I'd love to see some idiot congress critters tossing grenades at each other. Would make watching C-Span worth my time. View Quote They've got all that space, they should make it like "Assault" on the old american gladiators show! Mount that tennis ball cannon up where the speaker sits and let er rip |

Quoted: Link in OP now says 1 dead, 26 injured. View Quote Apparently it was a soldier who recently returned, and had head injuries and asked for help. At the time, the council was debating on the mayors salary and 2024 budget. Edit: the soldier part is not confirmed, but the topic of conversation is correct. |

Quoted: Well.....if the "grenade" doesn't do grenadie stuff, isn't it effectively a flashbang? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: So far we have 9 votes for flashbangs over the fact Russian grenades are just really shitty. Well.....if the "grenade" doesn't do grenadie stuff, isn't it effectively a flashbang? I'd argue it did do "grenadie stuff", as quite a few people are wounded. Remember, they don't only cause death, IMO death would be a bonus. |

Quoted: Were they concussion grenades? Like flash bangs or something? Isn't there a difference between grenade types? I.e. ones with more bang and less fragmentation versus lots of fragmentation? View Quote certainly are different types frag flash bang white phosfor thermite smoke concussion (a HD flash bang) |

Quoted: fuses popped, both audibly and visibly, and nobody seemed to care View Quote Living in a country "at war", don't recognize a threat, don't recognize grenades, don't react at all. People obviously living comfortable lives and never have had a thought in their mind about how to react. THIS is why everyone should "wargame" scenarios and put a plan of action thought in the back of your mind for a rainy day. A whole lot of WTF going on. |

Batryn had opposed a proposal to allocate a 50% raise and a monthly bonus for Mushka during the war, and had voted against deeming the village chief’s job performance satisfactory.
At the height of the budget debate, Batryn walked out of the council headquarters and then returned less then 3 minutes later to detonate the grenades. https://nypost.com/2023/12/15/news/video-shows-ukrainian-deputy-tossing-grenades-to-blow-up-meeting/ |

Quoted: The only thing Ukraine can offer as a viable export now is their women. We got involved in a Civil War, should have minded our own damn business and given all the support and military equipment to Poland. View Quote This. And how are they killing so many Russians with drone grenades when 3 in a small room only resulted in injuries? ETA: Flashbang? |

Quoted: I think the guy tossing the grenades is dead. Looks like the 3 one that went off, he was holding. Apparently it was a soldier who recently returned, and had head injuries and asked for help.

Jeepers.... symptoms of a world gone mad. To where a person in a responsible position suicides with a room full of innocents.
War is insane and then it gets damn weird. Lord help us all. |

Shock, delayed recognition of the threat.......
Twilight Zone event |

Quoted: Two things about that surprise me. First, no one died in that small of a space with 3 grenades detonating. Second, they all just stared at them and didn't try to take any type of cover. Do that shit in a mall in middle America I could see people being shocked and not know what is going on. But the country is a literal war zone, you'd think they'd realize wtf was up View Quote Dude was like . Welcome to the grain fields mother fuckers. |

It was never a Civil War. It was an act of aggression by a foreign power (Russia). May every Russian push up sunflowers in Ukraine. |

Quoted: So who is this guy? It's this one of Z Man's picks after "cleaning up" the government? Disclose has this quote: "The man, named as council representative Serhiy Batrin, 54, is seen entering the meeting late and standing by the door during a heated discussion at the session in Keretsk, in the Zakarpattia region" View Quote |

I hope he lived so they can stick one up his ass. That would be justice.

Quoted: Wow, three grenades in a small room and nobody died? I mean, tossing a grenade is one of the most anticlimactic things I've done after growing up watching '80s action movies (with huge fireball and vehicles being launched into the sky), but still, you'd have expected some deaths in that confined space. He'd have saved more lives if he'd taken out zelenski instead. View Quote I bet those grenades are not as potent as American fragmentation grenades. I don't know what they were but I just don't see three American fragmentation grenades going off in that room and nobody dying. |

Soooo........definately concussion grenades. Otherwise....the whole room would be covered in blood and almost everyone would be dead.
Gauranteed: they all have major hearing loss in that small room n three powerful pressure releases. Jeepers...ruff stuff |
