Subject: The Silence Gun - The Greatest Invention in the history of everything?
Seems like you'd be better off with a riot shield and a tazer, IMHO.
Bah, fix the A/C to spew out quicklime instead. That'll teach them to open their mouths.
Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

I don't understand how this would make people fall silent - surely it'd just be like speaking through a microphone with delay on it? That's not hard to do.
Everyone shuts up as they try and figure out what you're pointing at them.

Not sure why I'm remembering that.
It would be nice to see a video of it but obviously that's impossible.
I know what episode you speak of
Neato. Now we need a gun that burns streaks across your retina, like dark Lances.
If only ZUN!bar were here...

I don't know what it is about technology like this, tasers, the pain ray and LRADs, but they make me want to try to fight them, I'd probably try to talk in front of the silence gun for an hour or so, just to get the feeling of overcoming it, am I wierd or is anyone else like that?
I have the same feeling; it's a speaker so what's to stop me just making that noise you can make in your ears that sounds like rushing blood? Y'know... not sure how to describe it but you can block out an amount of sound.
