Has anyone heard if DEWs are being used?

I have been watching a lot of the protest and riots throughout the country and have seen a lot of pepper balls, tear gas, and beanbags being used by law enforcement to break up the crowds. But I have not seen anything being used that is advanced and more efficient. I would think Active Denial Systems, Dazzlers, and Long Range Acoustic Devices would be ideal to disperse crowds. Maybe they have and I have just missed it or maybe the cities officials are wanting to let these protests morph into riots IDK.

Guess you havent seen them because unlike Heraldo they dont want there positions given away. Joking aside maybe the riots are apart of a secret weaponized United Corporation that has been acive since 2017 or maybe earlier.
Also they arent prisoners or enemy combatants.

Are you referring to this device?
I got opportunity ( it sucked Ballz ) and im hard of hearing. But the speaker did not interact with my ears. It went straight to the brain and bones. The video is from I'm guessing G20 2009 or 10. Allegheny County has 2 swat vehicles with this speaker. Being a county employee back then, they tested on us to see or gauge our response. Then G20 came about.
I can vehemently assure you! If they had to use it. You had it coming. It felt like a high voltage shock between the eyes, and then I realised I had Taco Bell. First you're ask to leave, then again.

I was just going to mention that. The mayors/governors don’t want to cause any discomfort to these great revolutionaries. It’s obvious that any less than lethal munition Is forbidden in these cities. Just let them burn.
Hell, some of these commie mayors won't even let the cops use tear gas. I'm sure before they approved DEWs or laser dazzlers, they'd want to know what possible adverse effects they might have on people.
After all, we wouldn't want to harm any looters, rioters , or anarchists.
