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.

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.

I disagree....no knock searches can be very dangerous to police officers. With information they have in advance, they evaluate the potential danger in officers being maimed or killed. The information available to them at that time posed a very serious threat.....multiple weapons is nothing to fool around with. in fact, it has been known that alot of drug dealers and illegal weapons dealers buy dogs to use as a signal should police show up on their door step.....but, they also have the vocal chords of the dog removed so the police don't hear them barking. This leaves the cops open to an attack by the dog when they come through the front door.....and that gives the dealers more time to escape out of the window.
