Swastika crawls up Air Force chief’s ass; dies

UPDATE: CNN MISQUOTES, MAKES SHIT UP, WHATEVER… It seems Secretary Wynne never actually said that, it was just CNN’s way of spicing up their story by using wild-ass out-of-context quoting in the lede. Cut and paste journalism is this month’s photoshop, natch. Then again, the blogosphere reaction shows how very little we trust the government these days. /UPDATE

As an American citizen guinea pig, I simply cannot stand for this.

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

The object is basically public relations. Domestic use would make it easier to avoid questions from others about possible safety considerations, 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.

Yes, let’s test out these brand-new weapons on American citizens at protests. It’s better to potentially kill/disable those stupid anti-war anarchy lefto fucks anyway, because who’s gonna protest? Their government? Pshyeah.

Here’s a crazy idea: why don’t we test things out humanely? Pay some willing adults good money to stand there and be subjected to this weirdass Star Trek shit. That sounds like a good idea. We can pay for it by, I dunno, telling all those pork-eating congresscritters to piss off and die when they try to pull stunts like this:

He said he can’t cut more people, and it would not be wise to take funding from military programs that are needed to protect the country. But he said he also incurs resistance when he tries to save money on operations and maintenance by retiring aging aircraft.

“We’re finding out that those are, unfortunately, prized possessions of some congressional districts,” said Wynne, adding that the Air Force will have to “take some appetite suppressant pills.” He said he has asked employees to look for efficiencies in their offices.

God I hate our government.
