...machineguns. If a riot started forming at a street, they should just send 15 policemen with 7.62mm caliber machine guns and take care of the first two or three rows of the crowd, that would fix thirst for riots for at least a couple years.

I saw a documentary once on failed but humorous inventions - seems like the Brits invented a the cunning plan in the '60s against demonstrations. They'd cordon off a street filled with protestors, then they'd rapidly fill up the street with foam - about waist high. The hilarious result was that every protestor started to scream and play with the foam like little kids, and the demonstration would effectively stop (because noone felt the need to go somewhere else, the foam was just too much goddamn fun).
Don't know why they considered it a failed invention - i thought it was a brilliant plan.

Well, if we're taking the satirical route... use the Brass Eye approach, and get a 100ft screen, and project hardcore pornography onto it.
