This, of course, is battery, and its use cannot discriminate between "noisy" protesters and either innocent bystanders or those who are merely exercising their constitutional right to peaceably assemble.

I guess that's better than opening fire on people with pepper balls, occasionally maiming people (including those who weren't involved in protests)?

I'd love to see a version of this for home defense though. I want to blast would-be intruders or thieves with "Sales call Abyss" or maybe baby shark.

Is there like no option that neither should be used in the first place? I am so amazed.
