But it is a horrible device nonetheless, and you are forced to wonder what the world has come to when human ingenuity is pressed into service to make a thing like this. I wonder how he would feel if it actually did melt someone down to an oily spot on the pavement?

Crowd control?
How about using lethal weapons?
Liberal response: No Way! Remember Kent State!
Okay, how about non-lethal weapons?
Liberal Response: No Way! Those things hurt!

So much for water boarding. Seems useful but how long until these are deployed to our local police departments.

Psst!... Hey, Rummy... Can you get me one of these things? I’m trying to reprogram some libs. ;-)

These guys are just renaming Active Denial.

Probably yesterday. Silent Guardian is the scaled-down model and is made specifically for the police.
To: LibWhacker
Was that a Raython employee on the plain down to Club Gitmo? No? ‘course not. Probably a cable installer to put in cable television for the terrorists.

And, perhaps most worryingly, what if deployment of Silent Guardian causes mass panic, leaving some people unable to flee in the melee? Will they just be stuck there roasting?
Take that hippy! I want my anti-hippy gun too!

Right, this is just one weapon in a whole class of Active Denial weapons.

Damn hippies - they say they want to save the world but all they do is smoke pot and smell bad.

Active Denial?
MOAB and Arclight will actively deny any use of the landscape in
question. Also they are far more effective plus they alter the
landscape!
