A few important points:
1. Scientist shouldn't riot.
2. If rioters find spot heat uncomfortable, they shouldn't riot.
3. Riot organizers are usually at the back of the crowd and can be reached, selectively, with this.
4. Rioters carrying flammable liquids will be at a distinct disadvantage

Crowd control is best practiced with high explosives and/or napalm. Too much property damage - I prefer good old nerve gas - it kills the roaches too... (the other ones.)

What ever happened to the riot-control device that sprays stinky goo all over the "revelers"? I read somewhere that it smells like sewage and decomposing flesh (yum!).

Notice that it's not called a "Peaceful Demonstration Control Gun." Rioters deserve whatever they get. They need one of these in San Francisco.

I wonder what happens to people with metal fillings & dental work. Also, pins & screws, etc. from surgeries, and pacemakers. Your gonna have to pass a physical to riot in this country one day.

Clearly, the terrorists should be attacked with the Liberal-Apporved(tm) weapon of choice: the Comfy Chair!

"How do you ensure that the dose doesn't cross the threshold for permanent damage? Does the weapon cut out to prevent overexposure?," he added. They're right. Let's go back to bullets.
To: King Prout
Or play the American Anthem over loud speakers a few times, that'll disperse any liberal riot.

There's another one, tested by my organization, that reduces the coefficient of friction to well below that of wet ice. No body can even stand up on the stuff. Very effective, but can cause bruises, contusions, sprains, broken bones and even concussions. When the anarchists or jihadies hit the road ... literally.

Wonder if this sterilizes the mob? Probably not, it's just a skin effect. Still if you are wearing no underwear, or even loose boxers, with everything just swinging in the breeze, so to speak, it might cause some damage to delicate tissues.
