Use surface to air missiles to target and disrupt tornado's

Created by M.H. on May 21, 2013

This petition is to require the DOD(Department of Defense) to create a targeting algorithm for SAM sites(surface to air) missile systems. That would target and ultimately disrupt and or dissipate a tornado, saving thousands of lives every year. By launching a missile at the tornado and exploding it within the eye of the storm, enough force and heat could be created to disrupt or destroy a tornado.

"Why has this has not been done yet?"

"Have we even tried?"

"If we had this those school kids in Oklahoma would have had a chance. We owe it to those kids and their parents to at least try it."
