BILL WOULD BAN SPACE-BASED MIND CONTROL WEAPONS
Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) introduced a bill in the House of
Representatives late last year that would ban weapons in space. But while
there have been many similar legislative initiatives in the past, Rep.
Kucinich's bill is distinguished by its unusually expansive definition of
"weapons."
Among the weapons that it would proscribe the new measure includes
"psychotronic" devices that are "directed at individual persons or
targeted populations for the purpose of ... mood management, or mind
control."
No explanation for this peculiar proposal was immediately available.
But the text of "The Space Preservation Act of 2001" (H.R. 2977),
introduced on October 2, may be found here:

The Kucinich bill was hailed by Citizens Against Human Rights Abuse,
one of a number of organizations of people who say they are victims of
government experimentation involving electromagnetic and other
psychotronic weapons. See their web site here:

The bill has been referred to three House Committees.
