I have heard of rubber bullets and bean bags used in crowd control/riots, but I don't know if they worked very well. A good old fire hose works. That is what has been used to repel protesters attempting to board ships.
I think someone has been watching too many Star Trek shows besides Batman movies. Set phasers on stun! Rubber bullets can be extremely dangerous, a lot of people have been seriously injured by them.
