China Tests Electronic Weapons

No discussion of less powerful anti personnel electromagnetic weapons being used for harassment, crowd control, and to disable individual humans and their personal computers. Five states have laws regulating such weapons. Local police remain negligently trained, cannot or will not stop criminal use of high tech weapons. Police pretend they are unaware of their use. Police employees, FBI informants, and various sociopaths love to torment others and to interfere with computer transmissions contrary to law. US law carries $2 million fine for use with no enforcement when individuals are victims. Corporations and government agencies have institutional protections with varying efficacy. Individuals have no defense available.

[From article]
"China’s electronic weapons are part of what are called “trump card” or “assassin’s mace” weapons that “are based on new technology that has been developed in high secrecy.”
[. . .]
According to the report, China conducted EMP tests on mice, rats, rabbits, dogs and monkeys that produced eye, brain, bone marrow and other organ injuries. It stated that “it is clear the real purpose of the Chinese medical experiments is to learn the potential human effects of exposure to powerful EMP and [high-powered microwave] radiation.”
The tests did not appear designed for “anti-personnel [radio frequency] weapons” because of the limited amounts of radiation used.
However, the report said another explanation is that the Chinese tests may have been research “intended primarily for torturing prisoners,” or the tests may have been conducted to determine safety or shielding standards for military personnel or weapons.
[. . .]
Peter Pry, a former congressional aide who helped direct a commission on EMP [is] president of the group EMPact America.

Air Force Develops Mind Incapacitating Weapons


[Comments by Cheryl Welsh, Director Mind Justice
http://mindjustice.org ]

This article described what [mind control] victims describe, the general cluster of symptoms.

Of course this research was discovered back in the 1940s, 50s, even earliers roots, if you read psychology etc, Pavlov, fight or flight, sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system was studied extensively, acetylcholine, etc. the biological foundation for learned helplessness, etc. Reporters should ask tougher questions instead of joking it off.

The 2002 Converging Technologies Report is now proposing similar research
thirty years later. This report describes what is classified and the science of mind control weapons, I think. Researchers today don't conduct the "EMR approach" to research. The military has classified and monopolized EMR research since WWII. Reporters should ask scientific/historical questions. Page 355-6 of the report;

Non-drug Treatments for Enhancement of Human Performance, Robert Asher,
Sandia Laboratories

Drug companies spend an average of $800 million to develop new drugs that
may have negative side effects. An alternative is to develop non-drug
approaches to human performance enhancement. ...Consider the use of
externally applied, non-dangerous electromagnetic fields ...that enhance
human performance.

...What other changes can be engineered by a specifically shaped
electromagnetic pulse that might enhance human performance without
pharmaceuticals? ...This investigation may spawn a new industry in which the
human is enhanced by externally applied electromagnetic pulses so shaped as
to enhance specific biochemical changes within the body without drugs...

Fund work towards the goal of understanding in detail the effects of
electromagnetics on cellular systems and on cognition.

Consider cellular electrochemical and structural changes and actions
imposed by electromagnetics.

Fund work towards electromagnetic and biochemical dynamical modeling of
cellular systems in order to both understand electromagnetic and biochemical
aspects, as well as to optimize the shape of electromagnetic pulses to
impose desired cell changes without inducing side effects.



..................................................................................................................................................

"The Air Force is looking to harness advances in bio-science so they
can "degrade enemy performance and artificially overwhelm enemy
cognitive abilities."

"Resisting stress is good, but destroying your enemy with stress is
even better. "

Obama's Consumer Tech Experts

Obama's Consumer Tech Experts

Technology here is only consumer communications. High tech military weapons to discredit and to control critics is not discussed. Communication technology can give the appearance of access while shutting out ordinary citizens. Citizens can contribute public service without asking the White House, which like celebrities will use it for photo opportunities. Citizen input regarding quality of schools will NOT happen until teachers unions no longer exist. Unreliable Wikipedia entries are the standard for information? Ahem! Tech savvy wealthy professionals are politically naive to believe Honest Barack is not like the rest of the politicians. Honest Abe Lincoln was an ordinary man with acute political skills. Obama is a great speaker and a Harvard elitist. How much longer will his speaking ability hide his lack of decision-making ability and his lack of substance? What will Obama reveal about high tech military weapons used for surveillance, harassment, to discredit, to censor and to control citizen critics? During the campaign he excluded Fox News from his plane.

Alex Jones Laments Use of Electrical Weapons

Alex Jones Laments Use of Electrical Weapons

Massachusetts has a Firearms statute which makes it a felony to possess or to sell electrical weapons. Mass General Laws Chapter 140 Section 131 J.
http://www.mass.gov/legis.laws/mgl/140-131j.htm
In 2001 I wrote a bill to enhance the penalties. My bill did not pass, but subsequently the legislature did enhance the penalties. Local police are not trained to enforce that law. They demand evidence of use, which is not in the statute. Police and FBI informants, and members of organized crime use these weapons for harassment and provocation. Just ignore the clueless or complicit who attribute mental illness. The laws on discrimination state that it does not matter if a person is mentally ill or not. If they are denied access to government services it is a violation of law. Saying that a crime victim is mentally ill shows that the accuser believes it is OK to ignore persons with disabilities and to abuse such persons. They are sociopaths, and that includes the psychiatrists, the politicians, the judges and the police.

"The government publicly claims that these 'directed energy
weapons,' or 'D.E.W.', are still in the experimental stage, or
that working equipment is large and bulky."

These are two of many deliberate lies promulgated by US Agencies. If these weapons are experimental then the US Government is conducting an unlawful human experiment as they've done dozens of times over 80 years. Often these experiments are conducted by university oversight with no approval from the statutory Institutional Review Boards. This violates US Law, Title 45 CFR 46, called the common rule, which applies to 17 US agencies that conduct human experiments. As such it jeopardizes US research grants. Harvard University gets $500 million each year. Over ten years that is $5 billion. But the US Office of Human Research Protection at the NIH, refuses to investigate and demands evidence, and the names of the principal researchers.

One portable unit is the size of a VCR, that uses rechargeable batteries. Others are as small as a Mini DV Camcorder, that includes through-the-wall heat sensing for targeting the individual.

Army Orders Pain Ray Trucks; New Report Shows 'Potential for Death'
October 11, 2008, ABC News
http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=6007823&page=1

After years of testing, the Active Denial System -- the pain ray which drives off rioters with a microwave-like beam -- could finally have its day. The Army is buying five of the truck-mounted systems for $25 million. But the energy weapon may face new hurdles, before it's shipped off to the battlefield; a new report details how the supposedly non-lethal blaster could be turned into a flesh-frying killer. The announcement arrives on the same day as a new report from less-lethal weapons expert Dr. Jürgen Altmann that analyzes the physics of several directed energy weapons, including Active Denial, the Advanced Tactical Laser (used as a non-lethal weapon), the Pulsed Energy Projectile (a.k.a. "Maximum Pain" laser) and the Long Range Acoustic Device (a.k.a. "Acoustic Blaster"). Dr. Altmann describes the Active Denial beam in some detail, noting that it will not be completely uniform; anyone unlucky enough to be caught in the center will experience more heating than someone at the edge. And perhaps more significant is his thorough analysis of the heating it produces -- and the cumulative effect if the target does not have the chance to cool down between exposures. In U.S. military tests, a fifteen-second delay between exposures was strictly observed; this may not happen when the ADS is used for real. "As a consequence, the ADS provides the technical possibility to produce burns of second and third degree. Because the beam of diameter 2 m and above is wider than human size, such burns would occur over considerable parts of the body, up to 50% of its surface."

Cambridge Police Commissioner Ron Watson wants to acquire Electro-Muscular Disruption Technology -- called stun guns or TASERs. There is a large family of less-lethal weapons. The report of the December 12, 2006 meeting of the Public Safety Committee was unavailable as of the deadline for publication.
The Cambridge City Council remains silent about three recent police abuses: (1) 19 murders and other crimes by FBI informants in Boston; (2) the murder by Cambridge police of Daniel Furtado in his own home contrary to law. He was an elderly man with a disability. (3) The FBI frame-up of four Boston men for murder, whose trial is going on now.
The police want to use high tech electrical weapons to control civilians. The City Council shows no indication that it will hold the police accountable for any abuses. The City Manager defers to the Police Commissioner. The City Council is either in a coma when it comes to police abuses or they accept the false assurances of the Healy-Rossi autocracy.
The Council is clueless about electrical weapons. The Council ignored my complaints for 16 years about high tech electrical weapons being used in Cambridge. The City tolerates harassment using such weapons for provocations for punishment and to intentionally inflict emotional and psychological stress on vulnerable citizens.
“The Arizona Republic, [...] identified 167 cases in the United States and Canada of death following a police Taser strike since September 1999.” (Robert Anglen, “167 cases of death following stun-gun use,” The Arizona Republic, January 5, 2006) Tasers “are used by almost 10,000 police departments in the United States, and internationally.” A study showed that shocks from the guns cause the hearts of healthy pigs to stop beating.”
Tasers fire barbs up to 35 feet, “delivering a 50,000 volt shock. [...] Tasers are not regulated by the Bureau of Tobacco, Alcohol and Firearms or any other federal agency.” “Nationally, more than 100,000 police officers carry Tasers. [...] human rights groups and scientists have questioned their safety. [...] The company’s primary safety studies [...] consist of shocks administered to one pig and five dogs.” (Monica Davey and Alex Berenson, “Chicago Rethinks Its Use of Stun Guns,” New York Times, February 12, 2005, page 9)
“Britain has not approved Tasers for general police use. [...] A Canadian study found that it might cause cardiac arrest in people with heart conditions.” Police “volunteers usually receive a single shock of a half-second or less. In the field Tasers automatically fire for five seconds. [...] And suspects are often hit repeatedly.” “Taser has significantly overstated the weapon’s safety, say biomedical engineers [...] Its name stands for ‘Thomas A. Swift Electric Rifle.’ [...] its current can jump through two inches of clothing.” “In June [2004] alone, six people died.” (Alex Berenson, “As Police Use of Tasers Soars, Questions Over Safety Emerge,” New York Times, July 18, 2004, page one)
“Recently, police officers in Miami shocked a 6-year-old boy and a 12-year-old girl in separate incidents. One man “died after [...] an officer stunned him nine times with a TASER, and he wasn’t on drugs or alcohol [...] by the count of CBS News 10 [people died after being TASERed] in August [2004].” (“TASER Danger?” CBS NEWS, October 12, 2004)
“Gan Golan of Los Angeles, a protest veteran and recent MIT grad who did his thesis on the increasing use of such devices [...] contends ‘The fact that these weapons are called “Less Lethal” only makes them more likely to be used.’ And they can still be lethal. A Boston Red Sox fan [Emerson College student Victoria Snelgrove] celebrating a 2004 playoff victory died after a pepper spray projectile hit her in the eye. She wasn't even protesting anything.” (Marty Levine, “Amongst Their Weaponry ... are fear, but no surprise, when it comes to policing protestors,” Pittsburgh City Paper, MARCH 30, 2006) URL for this story: http://www.pittsburghcitypaper.ws/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A19277
The Omega Foundation and the Centre for Conflict Resolution at the University at Bradford in the UK [in 2004] have both released studies that highlight the dangers and deaths associated with all less than lethal weapons. These studies have emphasized the dangers associated with these weapons and made recommendations for their safe use that have so far been ignored by the US media and US law enforcement. Other less than lethal weapons are being used and newer products are coming on to the market all the time. When these weapons are used for crowd control, and as the technology improves, their effect becomes more political and less safety oriented. A line needs to be drawn between their use against criminals and their indiscriminate use against crowds.” (Pete Stidman, “Less-Than-Lethal?” INDYMEDIA.BOSTON, 23 Oct 2004)
The Hawthorne, CA police department uses less-lethal weapons that emit high-power electrical pulses with no wires attached. They can knock a person down at 15 feet. Pulsed microwave weapons are used for harassment purposes. Like ultra–sound they are difficult to perceive. Used persistently over a period of time they can cause lethal harms. Lasers can blind a person.
The International Committee of the Red Cross banned these devices. Extreme Low Frequency sound devices can affect thoughts and emotions. The U.S. Air Force has a heat generation device, which makes a person’s skin feel hot when they enter an area. Others cause digestive discomfort for crowd control.
The Cambridge police request should be denied until they are studied carefully and in depth. Police need training and strict procedures for their use. Criminals obtained these weapons and use them for political, personal and economic purposes. Few officers are trained in how to stop the criminal use of such non-lethal devices.
Massachusetts has a firearms statute, which prohibits possession of electrical devices. Chapter 140, Section 131 J states No person shall possess a portable device or weapon from which an electrical current, impulse, wave or beam may be directed, which current, impulse, wave or beam is designed to incapacitate temporarily, injure or kill. [There are exceptions.]
In 2001 I wrote a bill for the MA legislature, to increase penalties for possession. In 2003 the legislature rewrote the law. The statute does not require proof of use. Possession or sale is the crime. Rep. William R. Keating wrote the bill, which became law in 1986. Keating is now District Attorney for Norfolk County in Massachusetts. My several attempts to contact him to learn why he wrote the bill were not answered. This seems to verify that police use these devices for extra-legal punishment without due process.
There are numerous web sites devoted to stopping abuses of the testing and illegal use of non-lethal weapons. Some of these include: http://www.icomw.org/
International Committee on Offensive Microwave

http://www.mindjustice.org
Cheryl Welsh is a UN Representative for less lethal technology.

http://www.shoestringradio.net
http://www.raven1.net
Eleanor White’s two sites includes archived radio files, and many links to larger and alternative views of the abuses in the U.S. and Canada.
Some observers believe that psychiatrists use of these high tech weapons for psychological testing and abusive treatment. Academic and military researchers use unsuspecting civilians as human subjects. They want to test the limits of human tolerance by provoking violence and trying to drive people insane. Relatively few people know of their existence and do not believe that they are used on civilians without their consent.
But even when medical researchers are exposed experimenting on vulnerable populations there is no outrage from civilized citizens of this country. No lawyer comes forward until after the researchers admit their abuse 40 or 50 years after the fact. Then the lawyers appear to take 30 to 40 percent of the damages awarded to the victims.
Those who speak up about the abuses are often regarded as having a psychiatric disability with all of the negative biases that accompany such perceptions.
Until there is a thorough investigation of all of the electrical devices being developed and used of civilians the City Council should prohibit the use of Tasers or any other electrical devices, which can be used for hidden harms.

Cambridge Police Want to Use TASERs

Cambridge Police Want to Use TASERs

[This was published in the February 2007 edition of The Bridge
http://www.bridgenews.org
Their web site is not up and working as of March 18, 2007.]

On December 12, 2006 at 10:00 AM, the Cambridge City Council Committee on Public Safety held a hearing on TASERs. My letter filed on December 1, 2006, did not appear in the City Clerk's report. The Police Commissioner recommended use of TASERs.
Some police chiefs get TASER stock to promote the use of their firearms. I have no evidence that Cambridge Police Commissioner accepted anything to make his recommendation.
When Councilor Davis asked about the police killing of Emerson College student Victoria Snelgrove with a less lethal weapon, Police Commissioner Watson said she was killed by a pellet gun not a TASER. Police murdered her due to negligent training, contrary to assurances by the manufacturer that the gun was safe.
When Davis asked about community involvement, the Commissioner avoided the question. He said the Public Safety Committee "needs to be engaged first." Then he said a PIO (A what?) would be published and provided to the Council and to the Police Review Board. The Cambridge Police Review Board is a useless organization with no power staffed by incompetents with little knowledge of police practices. The chairman is a bigoted man who also chairs the Human Rights Commission. He simply obeys the City Manager. He has no ability to think for himself or to protect the rights of citizens.
Deputy City Manager Rossi said "the steering Committee [The what?] included [...] Human Services [...] and the Cambridge Hospital to get a good cross section point of view." Huh? What is the steering committee? Who appoints the city employees? Where are the victims of police abuses or critics?
Lt. Ames said that "There are no after effects." Really? What about the 167 deaths [no after effect?] after being TASERed reported by the Arizona Republic?
Dr. Workman said "The TASER does not affect the heart muscle, but there are ongoing studies." That's reassuring to those who died from heart attacks after being TASERed.
The latest was reported Jan. 9, 2007 in the New York Post. Of course "the company feels that the technology is safe." They FEEL it is safe? What kind of morons make these statements to a government agency? Why do city administrators accept this nonsense?
Ames revealed the focus of the hearing saying "there is no danger to the officer when the TASER subject is incapacitated." What about the civilian? There was no one at the meeting to raise that issue.
John Roberts represented the ACLU. The Boston ACLU works with the Boston police and the FBI. They never criticize the police no matter how badly they act as when the police killed Victoria Snelgrove.
Nancy Schlacter, assistant City Manager said, "pepper spray could cause harm to the police officer." That would be a reason for the officer to be careful. There is no reason for care when using a TASER.
Councilor Sullivan said "this is the beginning of the process of the use of less lethal tools." Notice he did not call them weapons. But it also demonstrates that he ignored my 8 years of written and spoken complaints about illegal use of less lethal weapons in Cambridge contrary to law.
Dr. Workman said, "the manufacturers dispute that TASERs kill. Some suspects were under the influence of drugs and some died due to misuse of the TASERs." Well, duh!
Councilor Toomey said, "If a TASER had been used on Porter Street, a life would have been saved." In July 2002 Cambridge police broke down the door and shot dead in his own home Daniel Furtado, with no court order and no warrant. If the police had not violated state and US law there would have been no death either. The police violated the US Constitution and killed a citizen contrary to law. There's nothing to stop them from violating their regulations misusing TASERs. Toomey's comment is at best misleading.
Continuing to spin the facts Deputy Manager Rossi said, "there is not a lot of force and shootings in Cambridge." I'm sure that is soothing to the family of Daniel Furtado.
Councilor Sullivan said, "five percent of people commit ninety-five percent of the crime." He did not give the figures for the percentage of police who are criminals.
