The Sickness Within

Emptiness of souls. Where do theses people come from? What is so wrong in America that we have amorality such as this inhabiting the highest regions of our government?

'Nonlethal weapons such as high-power microwave devices should be used on American citizens in crowd-control situations before they are used on the battlefield, the Air Force secretary said Tuesday.

Domestic use would make it easier to avoid questions in the international community over any possible safety concerns, said Secretary Michael Wynne.

"If we're not willing to use it here against our fellow citizens, then we should not be willing to use it in a wartime situation," said Wynne. "(Because) if I hit somebody with a nonlethal weapon and they claim that it injured them in a way that was not intended, I think that I would be vilified in the world press."'

So, let's test them on our citizens, see if we injure someone, make design corrections until we get it right. How many innocents have to be injured first? How many innocents have to die? Gee, we wouldn't want Wynne's sensibilities to be bruised in the world press. Maybe I missed something, but as the Air Force Secretary, isn't he supposed to be defending, um Americans?? How about the Bill of Rights? Yo Mike – ever hear of the Constitution?? He sure fits in with Georgie and all the other torturers in the Bush Administration doesn't he! For a West Point Graduate and a guy with two master degrees, he's not too bright.

I have a better idea, let's test it on Wynne and his fellow adherents.
