There's nothing to buy. Dead is dead, but a person of normal health would survive.

They use that same think to break up some crowds that won't disperse and I don't think it is COMMON for all the crowds to hold their chests and drop dead as a regular thing or they would halt the use of that particular tool.

She obviously had some condition that caused her poor health before this.

You are right though and they should hold the illegal drug users and dealers in this instance up to charges of unintentional murder as well...good idea!

Could work before a jury as well, unless they do drugs of course!

When the police use any sort of area-denial weapon on a crowd, they generally assess the crowd so as to figure out how to deploy the weapon with minimal serious injury. When the police throw a concussion grenade into a dwelling as part of a raid, no such consideration is given. Rather, it's just a matter of luck whether anyone happens to be within maiming or killing range.

What ratio of wrong-person deaths to correct-person deaths/arrests would strike you as excessive?
