Mass destruction is measured in megadeaths. A grenade only kills a few people in the vincinity aroud the explosion. An atomic explosion kilss thousands of people in the initial explosion, the wave following it kills a couple thousand more, and the radioatice poisoning that follows the wave continues to kills hundreds weeks after the initial explosion.
So if a grenade coudl do that then yes it would be a WMD. Next we are gonna hear lazy eyed Katie Couric saying pea shooters are WMDs, news anchors are asses anyway.

A doubt a hand grenade by itself would cause mass destruction. But if you threw the grenade in a weapons ammunition stock pile it probably would cause mass destruction.

a hand grenade has a 45 ft kill radius, a marine with a rifle has a 1 mile kill radius these are conventional weapons, W.M.D.s have multi mile kill radius's IE, air burst bio and chemical weapons and nukes, if a standard 2000 lb bomb was dropped in the stands of the super bowl you might get 50- a hundred dead 2 or 3 hundred more wounded, if that same bomb was carrieing a vx gas package and detonated 500 feet above the stadium you would have 80,000 + dead....... even the bugs

Not really, Mass destruction typically means large area of destruction. A hand grenade is more of a centralized explosion. It could be a WOMD if it is connected to something else.

No, there are no weapons of mass destruction...The law of conservation of mass, aka Law of Mass Conservation, states that the mass of a closed system (ie. the earth) of substances will remain constant, regardless of the processes acting inside the system. An equivalent statement is that matter changes form, but cannot be created nor destroyed.

It a weapon of large group destruction but it doesn't fall into the mass catagory.
