Microwave weapons

They've created a weapon that can fry protesters, or at least give protesters the impression that they are being fried. (See crudely added link below for more details.)

I say we should fight fire with fire. The system they have created costs $10 million. A snip for your average despot, but beyond the means of, well, us.

On the other hand, there are lots of us and I reakon most of us own microwaves. All we need to do is re-wire them so that they work with the door open, buy lots of lenses that will spread the rays, borrow some car batteries and surround the white house. (I'm not sure whether you can take a microwave on a plane these days or not.) Then all we have to do is wait.

The first time they actually use the device, our crudely created super microwave can then be activated and we can all laugh with glee as we melt the bush administration. A bit like the bit at the end of 'Indianna Jones and the lost Ark.'

Or we could appeal to the slightly better paid amongst our ranks and use fan ovens. That way we'll get a nice crisp Bush administration that will be the envy of all of our dinner guests.
