RNC-NYC: Tactics by Police Mute
Protesters, and Their Messages 09/02/2004 08:11 AM
Xeni Jardin: Interesting piece in today's NYT about NYPD crowd control tactics at the Repulican National Convention:

[N]early 1,800 protesters had been arrested on the streets, two-thirds of them on Tuesday night alone. But for all the anger of the demonstrations, they have barely interrupted the convention narrative, and have drawn relatively little national news coverage.

Using large orange nets to divide and conquer, and a near-zero tolerance policy for activities that even suggest the prospect of disorder, the New York Police Department has developed what amounts to a pre-emptive strike policy, cutting off demonstrations before they grow large enough, loud enough, or unruly enough to affect the convention. The demonstrations, too, have thus far been more restrained than many recent protests elsewhere; five years ago in Seattle, for example, there was widespread arson and window-smashing, none of which has occurred here. Lacking bloody scenes of billy-club-wielding police or billowing clouds of tear gas, the cameras - and the public's attention - have focused elsewhere.

"It is almost easier to explain what you are not getting here," said Ted Koppel, anchor and managing editor of ABC's "Nightline," when he was asked why news organizations have given little time to the protests. "What you are not getting here is a replay of 1968 in Chicago."

Watch for it at a riot near you!

Watch for it at a riot near you! 06/17/2004 04:10 PM

Several companies are developing crowd control devices for the Marines and select police departments that will deliver the shock of a Tazer, but use ionized gas, or plasma, to deliver the shock over a distance without wires, through the air. And the shock can be delivered to any number of people who get in the way. Shoot a car with it and it'll shut down the electronic ignition, stopping the bad guys in their tracks.

Early versions will have a limited range — 3 meters or so — but you gotta know that the boys in the lab are working feverishly to change that.

Scary stuff for bad guys.
