For years we have heard tools like this one mentioned. We have a number of “crowd control” devices available.

I have been surprised that we haven’t used them. I suppose this is related to local Democrat officials not wanting Federal intervention.

But it makes me wonder how horrific events would have to be for the government to fully deploy every crowd control device we have.

I know it’s myth, but I wish there really was a directed energy device known as the “crap cannon” which makes rioters lose bowel control.

My favorite was the “sticky foam’. I’d rather be gassed ath deal with that stuff.

I think one of the issues is that their use by the Federal government outside of Federal property could be problematic. It is one thing for the Feds to combat crowds that have become violent on Federal Property but another thing to use this technology on crowds outside, some of whom arguably might not legally be acting violently against Federal assets or personnel.
