@maxalings7941 Policing? Protesters are ALWAYS much more numerous than cops controlling them. The real strenght of riot police is discipline and cohordination. The fact that none wants to be the first to be hit by them. Things that I didn't see here. An hour of physical confrontation, with several injured cops ("so cops are free game! We can injure them without retaliation!") before seeing the first smoke bomb. Not even an attempt at charging. Only trying to hold the line standing still.

An hour of physical confrontation and several injudred cops before seeing the first smoke bomb. Not even an attempt at charging, just trying to hold the line standing still. Do we want to compare that with Police's attitude in BLM demonstrations?

Riot Police is armed AS AN EXTREME MEASURE, TO DEFEND THE OFFICER'S OWN LIFE. The real strenght of riot police, that allow them to get rid of protesters that are ALWAYS several times their number, is discipline and cohordination. The fact that none wants to be the first to be hit by them. Things that I didn't see here. An hour of physical confrontation, with several injured cops ("so cops are free game! We can injure them without retaliation!") before seeing the first smoke bomb. Not even an attempt at charging. Only trying to hold the line standing still.
