GoKawiilPentagon Approves DHS Testing of Active Denial Heat Ray at Border
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth signed a memo last month authorizing the Department of Homeland Security to test the military's Active Denial System and develop tactics for potential use at the southern US border, CNN reported. The nonlethal weapon emits an invisible electromagnetic beam reaching over half a mile that causes a burning sensation on skin, producing a tingling effect lasting 10-15 minutes that officials say creates an urge to flee.
