Very cool. Video of a real life "Ray Gun" in action. I can see potential for this in Berkley California.

Eric will love that last line.

Is this a giant microwave oven pointing sideways?

Imagine the lawsuits of a boiled liver when you faint from the heat and they keep 'cooking' you with this thing while you are unconscious!

Just think.....if they had this weapon back in the 1960s, they wouldn't have had to beat down all those black people in the south who were protesting against Jim Crow laws. They could have just broken up those protests without such violence and made sure that nobody noticed on a national level. Instead of being beaten, arrested, and then having a national audience to appeal to for their cause, people like MLK Jr. would never be able to mount a successful protest thanks to this cool weapon.

LOL...It was a joke. I can see a huge potential for abuse with such a weapon. Still...Free speech is one thing and I support any and all lawful protests. Unlawful anarchy is quite another.
