What has the royal family done?


No, but it will make them think twice about storming you long enough for the authorities to show up or for you to escape, if it doesn't make them decide to loot somewhere easier. Looters want loot, not blood.
Just like they showed up in London and quickly quelled the violence and the looting.


Neither side in these situations are going to be using kind words, Also Kind words and tazers works just as well if you have a multi-shot stungun.
No, not really. Tazers rarely maim or kill and the crowd knows that.


If the mob is willing to kill in america they are likely to have guns in this situation too, so one guy with a gun, assuming he's law abiding, is likely to get shot before he has a chance to finish shouting a warning anyway. If niether side has guns the one guy is about as screwed, though he has a better chance to run as he's not going to be shot in the back as he goes.
A lynch mob would be armed, unlike a loot mob.

Then that makes you avoiding a proven improvement even more depressingly pointless.
One man's improvement is another man's disaster.
