THIS IS CRIMINAL

The "microwave pain rays" as Dimitri calls it is the active denial system. Check out this demo.

It takes a moment to get "cooking," but hang in there for the big picture.

2. This will be hugely unpopular, but I would much prefer a deterrent like that
than a taser or rubber bullets. Or real bullets. They were able to walk away from this.

3. I agree
it looks pretty effective. Better than the alternatives.

5. I'm not sure we should be looking for the most painless and efficient means of squashing free speech

9. I agree 100 percent...
...It gets the point across without much lingering damage. I can't really see a down-side to this.

4. Oh boy!! Conventions provide Cops & Goons a chance to try out their new toys.
Driving yet another nail into the coffin of our constitutional right to freedom of speech and assembly.

8. The "demonstrators" were throwing "rocks."
That ain't exactly speech.

10. Bingo!
This doesn't have anything to do with freedom of assembly or speech or protest, etc. It has to do with freedom to start a mob riot, which I don't think is, nor should be, one of our rights. I could be wrong though.

11. Cops don't mind riots when it's an excuse to stop protests.
If police were primarily concerned with avoiding mob riots they wouldn't try to incite them to undermine protests.
