Is your argument, or would you agree with governments making the argument, that the use of force should be acceptable as long as you/they know its asymmetric?
I made no such argument. My argument is that the claim
> These are weapons that would violate the Geneva convention, but we're okay with them to disperse a crowd.
is misleading because it implies that riot agents are comparable to chemical weapons. Riot agents are intended to disperse crowds while keeping casualties to a minimum. Chemical weapons are intended to kill people.
