Done.
Charging Non-Violent Peace Laser.

Here comes my nerd mode. In one of the Star Wars books, a captive Han Solo is talking to the engineer who designed the Death Star. She explains that she was told the laser would be used for mining purposes, like destroying a large and dense asteroid or planet to mine the valuable minerals in the core.

Solo: “Even with that explanation, how could you think it was peaceful? They named it the ‘Death Star’.”
