If you are thinking of a taser or stun gun then those can kill people with medical conditions (yea looking at person try to guess who has a heart defect) or can kill the young or old. With people on drugs the taser might do nothing or it might kill them. There are some people (a very small number) who can just . Things like heavy clothing or body armor also reduce effectiveness.

If we are talking about blinding laser weapons there have been countermeasures to them for decades.

Until we get Phasers a projectile at a high velocity is still the most effective weapon out there. (and if we do get Phasers the lethal ability of them are quite impressive).

Let's use high frequency to make'em crumb to the floor!
