Non-Lethal Technology along with Background Checks and Bans to Prevent Shootings
We should use or develop non-lethal means to stop a shooter that wouldn’t kill other people.
Sleeping gas – exploding canisters of sleeping gas could be fired in the general direction of the shooter. After capture, an antidote could be administered to everyone breathing the gas.
Dazzler – temporarily blinds or disorients the shooter with intense radiation (rifle-like devise) see Wikipedia for more info under non-lethal weapons.
Skin Penetrating Tranquilizer Grains with Antidote – fired by a shotgun like devise with a very wide pattern as to more easily hit shooter could possibly be developed.
Bear Spray, Tasers and Pepper Balls fired by paintball guns could also be used.
People would likely prefer a non-lethal weapon in which nobody would be accidentally killed or if the weapon gets the wrong hands, it couldn’t be used to kill. An effective non-lethal weapon that automatically dials 911 when used, could be widely owned but only used in emergency situations. So possibly, a teacher could just point and pull a trigger; a shooter would be knocked-out with police and first responders on the way.
Background checks, bans on some firearms, registering firearms and having a license to have a gun would be good, but getting non-lethal weapons available as soon as possible should be a priority. An ongoing study could recommend the most effective non-lethal weapons. We need to use technology to help solve this tragic problem.
