15) Police will be instructed to be tolerant of more minor lawbreaking (such as thrown water bottles) when deciding whether to escalate the use of force.
Yep. Thats it. Tolerate shit being thrown at them?I think not. Break out the tear gas.
You are the only one saying, ''being thrown at them'' so tell me where it says that...dear one?? Maybe it is easily presumed, but it does not say that... And there is no reason AT ALL we bring out the tear gas on the masses if it is just 1 or 2 people throwing empty of half empty water bottles....IF YOU think 'that' is what they should DO...break out the tear gas, then in my mind, it is YOU that is wrong....
IF it was the whole crowd or even the majority of the crowd throwing full water bottles then, I'd agree with you....but NOT if it was just a handful in the crowd....how many water bottles can a person even hold....not many....(it's not knives, it's not bullets flying, it's not bricks, it could be much much worse)
You seem like you are just ITCHING for those cops 'to put them people in their place', and that is NOT the right kind of attitude to portray, if you want the public to trust you or your fellow cops....again, imo.
