Hand-Held Guns Bring Cancer to Troops

Hand-Held Guns Bring Cancer to Troops
By Maureen Federo

Hand-held radar guns that develop cancer are ordered to be banned by the Connecticut State Police, yesterday in Meriden, Conn.

Because of concerns that troopers could develop cancer from long-term exposure to the radiation waves emitted by the devices. The ban was ordered as a precaution while researchers study the possible links between cancer and use of the devices.

A state police spokesman named Adam Berluti said, “The feeling here is to err on the side of caution until more is known about the issue.”

This move is considered to be the first of its kind by a state police agency. It comes two months after three municipal police officers in Connecticut filed workers’ compensation claims, saying they developed cancer from using hand-held radar guns.

The ban affects 70 radar guns, which will be withdrawn from service. State troopers will continue to use radar units with transmitters mounted on the outside of their cruisers.

If you can cook popcorn and if radiation is proven to cause cancers, there is no rocket science to this.

Maybe more testing to see if the public is safe being bombarded with radiation thanks to police officers should be investigated.

Until then I suggest that police officer in Connecticut cradle their radar guns in their laps pointing downward when on and not aimed at the public.

[click here] for a video of a radar weapon used, set on low, as a crowd control weapon. Set on high it can sizzle crowds to a crisp on sidewalks.

There needs to be civilian oversight of police for a free society. Police shouldn't just be about revenue collection and retaliation. They should be under our control. Google "Judencia" for what the police and Judge and Attorney Mafia are doing to ruin America.
