Got to thinking last night about how police and militia handle crowds. To subdue means to quiet or tone down. Granted, it also means to conquer. But if the real intent were to subjugate a crowd, why is it that the most violent means are used? Think of the use of firehoses on the civil rights demonstrators of the 60s.
Wouldn't it be more efficient to subdue by using ether or the aerial spraying of Valium or Prosac or even marijuana (Can marijuana be sprayed?)? How about nitrous oxide and everyone could have a good laugh and maybe get their teeth cleaned at the same time? SWAT teams wouldn't even have to change their initials.
