Senator Hatch Introduces Bill to Burn People's Eyes Out

Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) today introduced legislation authorizing the
use of high-powered microwave lasers to burn out the eyes of non-paying
viewers of copyrighted material. "If we could develop technology which
just burned out the parts of their brains where the illegal memories are
stored, that'd be fine with me--but we can burn their eyes out right
now!" said Hatch, while introducing the Hatch/Hollywood Eyeball
Evisceration Act.
