Holy Unholstered energy weapons, Batman!

The non-lethal weapon, which has yet to be named, will immobilize a person or animal up to 2 kilometers (1.24 miles) away by inducing muscular tetanization. Tetanization is the stimulation of muscle fibers at a frequency which turns individual contractions into a single sustained contraction, rendering a person unable to move. Once tetanized, the target will remain immobile for as long as the weapon is aimed at him or her and continues to produce an electric current within the major portion of the body's striated muscles (skeletal muscles).

Hmmm....the UV lasers won't penetrate the cornea to damage the eyes, but they'll penetrate clothing that will stop most UV radiation? I think I'll make myself some "body armor" consisting of sewn-together corneas from cadavers! [:D]

How about a tinfoil suit to go with that tinfoil hat. [:D]
