When “mob sabotage” will become a recurrent theme in India and other countries, when lathi-charge and water cannons and rubber bullets will become “jokes”, but YET, “real bullets” will remain a strict no-no, then how will the ELECTED governments ever be able to govern? Just think about it — how will a government EVER FUNCTION if a few thousand people collect in one place, shout their guts out, beat up the police personnel, and ABSOLUTELY INSIST that the mob’s decision be taken as the LAW VIS-A-VIS THAT CASE. Then what will be the alternative left to law-enforcement authorities?
VERY LOW CONCENTRATION CHEMICAL SPRAYS will be the answer. From a helicopter or a hose pipe spray out such a diluted chemical that many many thousands, the ENTIRE MOB collected there feel giddy, some faint, some try to run away and fall down with headache or nausea.
Just leave them in that state. The effect of the chemical will last for 2-3 hours but that will be enough to “bring them to senses”. When the effect fades away, they will quietly get up and go home.
But the usage of this chemical spray will have to be decided NOT by police or a politician, but by an officer of the law department, like a magistrate or a judge or someone to ENSURE THAT THE PROCESS OF LAW IS NOT SABOTAGED BY THE MOB.
