They're not very intimidating, I'd imagine.

"cut that shit out before I come over there and put you down for a nap"

yeah, not seeing it. Also, I'm willing to bet they'd cost more to produce and distribute than regular guns.

Cause using too much tranquilizer would kill someone.

For the same reason the zoo shot Harambe (dofh) instead of tranquilizing it, tranquilizers take minutes to work, not seconds.

Bullets are more instant. Not to mention less steps to neutralize someone. Cops are trained for non lethal shooting, people are just dumb. More news at 11.

Because anaesthesia is far more complicated than just a fucking standard dart.

Each person requires different dosage based on many variables like body weight. Too little, and all they feel is the dart piercing their skin. Too much, and they get killed all the same. Not only that, anaesthesia takes time to take effect, during which the perp can still come forward and bash the cop's face in.

There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".
There is "would've", "should've" and "could've".

Lol sorry, not "shooting" but "force". They're trained for non lethal force but yes, they don't shoot to maim.

Because it would give the criminal enough time to use a real gun before passing out.

Because they'd hurt the guns. Didnt ya hear? Guns are innocent. They don't kill people. People kill people. Shoot the people.

Because they're expected to actually accomplish something when forced to shoot at someone
