Heather Mills was voted off 'Dancing With the Stars' and John Ratzenberger

I agree that some rules need to be applied by law enforcement before

There was quite of bit of news several years ago on the development of EMP
guns that could cripple the electronics in most vehicles but I haven't seen
anything recently
