Pentagon approves testing of heat ray weapon at US border
Original: Pentagon grants DHS permission to test heat ray weapon for use at border
The Pentagon has given the Department of Homeland Security permission to test an experimental heat ray weapon, known as an active denial system, for possible use at the US border. The device repels people with a painful but non-lethal burning sensation. The approval is drawing criticism from civil liberties groups who argue it could harm migrants and set a dangerous precedent for militarizing border enforcement.
Why now: The decision is sparking debate over the militarization of the border and the use of directed-energy weapons against migrants.
