hmm, you would think the methods used presently would be sufficient punishment (not that protestors deserve any) to those rioting or demonstrating, two completely different things that should be dealt with in different manners. A demonstration is peaceful, and I would see no justification to use excruciatingly painful weaponry on participants, where as riots are violent, and a weapon such as this can be useful (I personally don't agree with it as I believe contemporary methods are enough, but I can see why they would create such a thing). I'm not surprised in the least that humanity is yet on the verge of creating another weapon to inflict yet more pain, and I'm even less surprised that the US is behind it, like you said, this is simply evil.
