The police aren't trained to go through night after night of warfare. He obviously had reached the end of his tether.
The answer is to start giving the police real military training. To militarize the police so to speak.
I whole heartedly disagree! The militarization of local police forces is at the root of the problems in Ferguson and the source of friction between police and communities everywhere in this nation.
When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. When all the cops have are military weapons and tactics, everyone looks like a terrorist. And then there is NO justice or even the hope of justice.
