Bowtech_archer07 Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Well, as most of you know, I'm at police training and have 7 weeks left after tomorrow. Today was OC (Oleoresin Capiscum) spray day. Essentially pepper spray. The stuff we got sprayed with was 2,000,000 Scovill Heat Units (SHU's).. Jalapeno peppers are 2500 SHU's. We had to get sprayed, do 30 pushups, run 15 yards, crawl through a hole, do 3 knee kicks to a person holding a punching bag, order somebody into proper cuffing position, handcuff them properly, and shoot a target with a laser gun at approximately 5 yards. I survived, but it sucked. I got splash up into both eyes and hope that I never have to be hit with this stuff again. On the upside, it's 3 hours later and the pain is almost over until I shower and it reactives.. lol Gotta love this job!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowtech_archer07 Posted May 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 No I haven't been tased yet. That won't be for another couple of weeks. Everybody I have talked to said they would rather be tased than sprayed though lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearClaw Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 That would really suck but, we appreciate all you are doing to prepare to serve and protect the citizens of your community. I always wanted to be a police officer but my eyes were always way too bad. We're all proud of you, hang in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkneck Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 I learned my lesson playing with gadgets. I put a stun gun behind my 11 y/o daughter. And pulled the trigger. She ran through her door knocking it off the hinges and broke it over her bed. Guess who felt like a db after that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
