This thing is kinda cool? It's like something out of Doom 3! Insert evil laugh here... My favorite lines: Traveling at the speed of light, the Silent Guardian's focused beam of "millimeter-wave" energy produces an intolerable burning sensation, "causing the targeted individuals to instinctively flee or take cover." "I have been in front of the full-sized system and, believe me, you just run. You don't have time to think about it, you just run," Raytheon executive George Svitak told Hanlon. http://www.informationweek.com/blog/main/archives/2007/10/us_unveils_new.html http://www.raytheon.com/products/silent_guardian/ RMX
Used in conjunction with Rap music, no one will stand against us--we will rule the world! (sell your real estate and buy stock in the U.S. NOW!)
ehhhhh.... in regards to civillian use, parameter security sounds like a winner, but you give this thing to cops and they will nuke people for the complete hell of it. Look at the way they are killing people with their tasers.
These devices are intended to be used on US citizens during times of martial law and situations involving civil disobedience. Coming to a city near you.
"These devices are intended to be used on US citizens during times of martial law and situations involving civil disobedience. Coming to a city near you." You're too optimistic - I see them wired into speed cameras by 2010.

I love Raytheon. I love them so much I bought all their stuff for my kitchen. No joke. I figure if they can make a cruise missile they can damn well make a fridge. I reallllly like the name "Raytheon". Honestly, if you were to name an evil arms manufacturer in a espionage movie, could there be a more perfect name? Chilling just to say it.
Probably not long especially when they get a few shills out there to stir things up. I was reading that during tests they had to ask the guinea pigs to remove coins(the metal burned holes in their skin when zapped) and wear sunglasses.(the rays will do permanent eye damage if someone is shot in the eyes)
Great... I'm sure the promo materials won't say that as they pitch it to municipalities. I'm not a physicist but this seems it is a large microwave oven to burn people with? Not as side-effect-less as they would present.
I think that's pretty darn accurate, and God forgive me but I laughed when I read that. Use of this would probably be a windfall for tort (correct term?) lawyers.
