:I would agree that this category's name should be changed to "Less-Than-Lethal" or just "Less Lethal." I prefer the latter term because the former implies that it "isn't really lethal." A shotgun loaded with beanbag rounds can still kill you, it just needs more hits than regular buckshot normally would. --[[User:Mazryonh|Mazryonh]] ([[User talk:Mazryonh|talk]]) 00:49, 27 March 2015 (EDT)
