When attending training involving OC Spray..........................wash hand thoroughly before taking a leak.................DAMN!!!! I've done that before, except "organically". Sounds gay, I know, but we grow jalapeno and serrano peppers. And you better wash very well with dishsoap otherwise you'll be hopping and crying for a bit. |
| I sprayed a suspect a few years ago and unknowingly got some on my hand when putting him into the cruiser. On the drive to the station, I rubbed my eye a little and quickly discovered I had OC on my hand. After arriving at the station, I washed my hand thoroughly believing I got it all off. About 30 minutes later, I went to take a leak and suddenly realized that a good hand washing doesn’t always remove all traces of OC. Getting OC on your privates is not a good thing. |

Well I just walked downstairs and was telling the guys in Court Security about my mishap right at the time this toothless mope (female) was walking thru the metal detectors. I guess she overheard my story at which point she said " you know the cure for that don't ya?"
Me: "What's that?" It: "Saliva" 
Ok, the burning isn't so bad now since I have this horrid scenario circling in my friggin head!!!!

That's not funny !! 
My Grandmother was a pioneer type woman raised in north east Missouri. Burlington Junction in fact. She grew up raising her food. I can remember spending entire summers farmed out as slave labor to her 2 acre garden... There was this one lone plant by the wood shed we were told to never touch as kids. No explanation, just don't touch. Will make the story short by saying the inside of our noses were on fire, privates on fire, eyes and ears were scalded and it felt like our scalps were bleeding. I feel your pain. |
| In the shower, two days later, a not so friendly reminder of the fun. Getting sprayed and drawing weapon, pushing through people and attempting to cuff... Or the time we were disposing of old confiscated oc spray, a gentle wind blew the mist back in his face, I laughed. Then I thought I would be smart and spray mine into the ground while kneeling, mine turned out to be a high pressure stream that splattered, good times at the abortuary... |

When I was teaching OC at the academy, we would do the drill on the class then do the decontamination. Usual yada yada yada - don't use perfumed soap to shower tonight, yada yada yada use cool water as hot water can cause additional effects, yada yada yada.
Next day at lunch, all the recruits are still showing signs of yesterday's event. We would place a large bowl of chili mac in the microwave, spray it with OC and set it for 3 minutes. Microwave cooling fan blows the smell of propellant all around the room. Next thing you see is about 30 recruits suffering from psychologically induced secondary contamination effects as they smell the propellant and think they are being pepper sprayed.... Ah, the good ol days... |

| Never dealt with the spray, but cutting up a couple of gallons of jalepenos and cayennes will do things to your eyes while you're putting in contacts that will make you forget about the burning downstairs from taking a leak... taking the contacts out sucks, but putting them back in the next morning sucks waaay worse. |

| Several years ago in my cousins wilder days he got very drunk on night and was hauled in for alittle to rowdy in public and wanting to fight. My family is pretty well known around town and they put him in a holding room till his dad could get down and pick him up. Only problem was he was wasn't ready to settle down and was still ready to brawl. They ended up giving him a shot of pepper spray and he went down holding his face and ever time a officer would get close and try to get ahold of him he would start kicking at them. They warned him several times to calm down or they would take it to the next level, but he wouldn't listen. The next shot of pepper spray was strait to the balls. I asked him what happened then and all I can say is that was a defining moment in his life. He has never been to the police station since and is now a productive member of society.. |
