The POLICE need "non-lethal capabilities".
The Army, if it is being used for its intended purpose, does not.
I'm sure some will disagree, but that is my opinion.

"The Army, if it is being used for its intended purpose, does not." IMHO, you're largely correct, although I'd contend that a limited segment of the Military Police Corps mission would benefit from non-lethal tech.

The purpose of the Armed Services is to kill people and break things in the name of the United States. Period. Hopefully most of the people in kills want to do us serious harm. The world is an exceedingly dangerous place.
