    What I see is a protester who is focused on following someone who is being violently tackled. He doesn’t appear to be acting in a threatening way.

    The trained professional who is geared up for war, and is clearly not fearing for his safety, goes straight for a point blank shot to the face.

    This is not justification of your “perfectly legal policy to put you down”.

      Their goal is to bait people into giving them an excuse. What they did before should matter but it doesn’t. They provoke you into crossing their line and start shooting. When has any military force in the history of the world followed rules? Don’t get it twisted this is one of the most well funded forces in the world, stacked with shoot first ask questions latter lunatics. Expecting them to follow rules is losing game. DO NOT ENGAGE! It’s what they want. Hold your ground, be loud, be a nuisance, all of it matters. They won’t bat an eye before murdering a crowd if the order comes through. Protect yourselves by being smart about it.
