  1. The officer asked the protesters to move and then called help when he was ignored. They are called 'the force' and their role is law 'enforcement'. While pushing people is not the thing to do, because it can be dangerous, what is law enforcement meant to mean in this situation and how should it be carried out? The video says his record shows he has never shot anyone though he has pulled out his gun on about a once a month basis. People doing these jobs get brutalised by the jobs they are doing and the targets they are set. Community policing is a better option, but it's not much practised in the USA I guess. More black policemen would be another improvement.
