A planet-size super weapon already exists, it's called the O' Debt Star.

it stuck a primitive (by rebel standards) "Star Wars"-style laser cannon on a fighter jet and flew it over Michigan eight times. Umm..
Did they zap any of your bear, bambi, possum, 'coon, or chupacabra population while they were over head?
...or any feral demoncrats?

It might explain that hole in the top of Michael Brown’s head.

Well then...
That would be a great shot - from Detroit all the way to Ferguson...
Did the autopsy reveal char marks on the edges of that, um, bullet hole??

Sadly it seems Russia and China have these plans in their hands before the ink dries on the paper...
And now, they will have to develop a system to defeat the laser for when it is mounted on Chinese and Russian aircraft...
