You need some anger managment fool-

And neither are you, faggot.

and what’s to stop them placing them on tops of buildings in residential or business districts – or anywhere? NOTHING! now that the supremes has said a the gov’t can seize any land it wants if it believe it to be more valuable to them used as something else. plus, the so-called patriot act allows this type of thing in the name of stopping terrorism and have in effect labeled any/all crimes as acts of terrorism which allows them to use any part of the patriot act they decide fits that definition.

you’re an idiot.

I don’t agree with everything my government does, but it’s worked out well for me. I enjoy lower taxes than most Europeans, and get greater benefits from it. I am given many opportunities, and enjoy freedoms that are unheard of in most countries. I sleep safely at night without fear of a Military, political, or religious faction breaking down my doors and killing my family. I walk down streets with fear of the guy next to me blowing himself up, taking me and 30 other unsuspecting citizens with him.

I appreciate your posting here. Though I dot agree with you, you are voicing you opinion in a constructive way, and I have respect for that. If you want to lay down in traffic however, dot expect my car to stop for you.

Getting back to the subject of Directed Energy Weapons… Those who accuse Americans of being too harsh should welcome this as a sign of our further commitment to non-lethal warfare. Also understand that the immense amount of power these weapons consume will make the prohibitively expensive, and nearly immobile. Soldiers and police wont be carrying these around like hand guns or tasers, (unless they have a 6 megawatt battery hidden up their ass). These are for planned, strategic missions the government considers necessary. When the government considers military action necessary, they will execute the mission using whatever technology and resources are available. Having better technology only enables us to do the job more efficiently, reducing unnecessary casualties, structural damage, etc. I for one look forward to it.

Wahhh! The military is bad! (Except the US military is what keeps those people at bay who would rather you not have the freedom to express yourself).

Wahh! The government spends money trying to hurt people! (Except this is a non-lethal weapon that only induces pain while it is in use, once shut off, the pain disappears–not subsides, not wears away, DISAPPEARS!)

You are the same type of person that refuses to vote because “my one vote doesn’t count” (tell that to Florida Democrats) and would rather just go to a protest rally (which truly accomplishes nothing but makes the people who disagree with you like you even less).

So let me get this straight, shooting people with a gun to get them to comply with the authorities is too barbaric, because it kills them, fine. Oh, a nightstick is too brutal, you can break bones or maim someone. And forget about a Taser, people have had heart attacks after being Tasered! So, we have here a non-lethal, non-injuring, pseaudo-weapon that can render a knife-wielding drug addict or suicide bomber immobile, and we aren’t supposed to use it because it makes him (or her, didn’t mean to be politically incorrect) feel pain temporarily? Give me a break. I guess we should just let him stab a few cops (like my brother) or blow up a school full of kids (like in Russia last year).

Because the criminal or terrorist deserves more mercy than the innocents or those who put themselves in between the bad guys and the rest of us.

Oh yeah, and another thing. If it weren’t for the U.S. military, you wouldn’t have the Internet to post your small-minded ramblings on. Think through your ideas and expand your mind further than your own little piece of the world.

it deflects alien thought control
so this should be no problem!

As far as a legal bind is concerned, let them trace me through this wireless router. I park outside a local business and make my transmission. I do not advise people to attack the police except in self defence. As far as the “treason” is concerned, public officials have been committing that en mass since they have decided to ignore the Constitution.

Best thing to do, is watch out, report them, stop them, or just plain avoid them.

isn’t that special.

Better play by the rules right? Because the enemy always does, right?

Moron.

Rights are not something given to you by your gov’t, they are something a free individual TAKES if they are bold enough.

I believe the term is “involuntary suicide.”

Use yer head. Advising people to attack police and the like, is pretty much putting you in a legal bind. It’s called inducement, and probably falls under some law like treason, etc.

Have a nice day.

Personally, I believe that if this is used on peaceful demonstrators, then the demonstrators have a right to fight back with BULLETS!!! Eye damaging laser diodes can be easily obtained by civilians. If the governments want to escalate technology against civilians, then civilians should do the same.
