The Sewer Sharks will be all for this, (half of them remind me of the
"shoot them Vietnam protestors" people I saw on TV decades ago,) until they
realize that in a lot of cases pro-war people like "mixing it up" and
"getting in the face" of anti-war protestors.

So if this "crowd control microwave zapper" were used, the "true blue
patriotic Bush-can-do-no-wrong" people would end up getting zapped by these
gizmos too.

And what would this zapper do to the very young or very old?
Or those with pacemakers and other health gadgets in them?
This Air Force Secretary obviously wans't thinking too clearly when he made
that asinine remark.

Or he simply doesn't give a shit.
