To all you lovable gun nuts crying about the 2nd Amendment. How about this? [View all]

So, let me get this straight. All you gun nuts want your manly huge collection of guns because you have the constitutional right to bear arms and if, just in case, you need to fight the government you and your buddies will be properly prepared to do so? What good are all these guns going to do when the government decides to use its sophisticated hypersonic and directed-energy weapons, high powered acoustic sound cannons, lasers, "heat ray" weapons that blister the surface of your skin at you and your other proud boy friends, causing you to LITERALLY shit in your pants (one of the side effects). I have a feeling that all you "proud boys" will run screaming to mommie when hit with second degree burns after only 3 seconds of exposure to these weapons. What good is your rifle, your AK-47 going to be when you can't even stand in one place long enough to fire it without your brain being fried by lasers or ultra sound canons? By now I am sure the level of sophistication for these crowd control weapons is even more lethal and twice as effective than we know about. Honey -- if the guvment wants to knock you down, you going down -- fast... even if you have a pickup truck full of AK-47's. With these weapons, they don't even have to pinpoint you. They can just aim it in your general direction and BAM you are incapacitated and pooping in your pants to boot.

The Active Denial System (ADS) is a non-lethal directed-energy weapon developed by the U.S. military,[2] designed for area denial, perimeter security and crowd control,

Mechanism and effects
The ADS works by firing a high-powered (100 kW output power)[13] beam of 95 GHz waves at a target, which corresponds to a wavelength of 3.2 mm.[14] The ADS millimeter wave energy works on a principle similar to a microwave oven, exciting the water and fat molecules in the skin, and instantly heating them via dielectric heating. One significant difference is that a microwave oven uses the much lower frequency (and longer wavelength) of 2.45 GHz. The short millimeter waves used in ADS only penetrate the top layers of skin, with most of the energy being absorbed within 0.4 mm (1⁄64 inch),[15] whereas microwaves will penetrate into human tissue about 17 mm (0.67 inch).[16]

The ADS's effect of repelling humans occurs at slightly higher than 44 °C (111 °F), though first-degree burns occur at about 51 °C (124 °F), and second-degree burns occur at about 58 °C (136 °F).[17] In testing, pea-sized blisters have been observed in less than 0.1% of ADS exposures, indicating that second degree surface burns have been caused by the device.[17] The radiation burns caused are similar to microwave burns, but only on the skin surface due to the decreased penetration of shorter millimeter waves. The surface temperature of a target will continue to rise so long as the beam is applied, at a rate dictated by the target's material and distance from the transmitter, along with the beam's frequency and power level set by the operator. Most human test subjects reached their pain threshold within 3 seconds, and none could endure more than 5 seconds.[18]

p.s. I have seen videos online of millitary brass allowing themselves to be test subjects for these weapons and these brave men fell down on the ground literally IN SECONDS. Yup. You go ahead and try to fight with a pea shooter.
