The crowd is thinning a little. Not much happening. Most people standing around looking, not even chanting.
Tactical question. How do the police move them if they're on the other side of the fence a half a block away?
In Mpls as I watched the crowds of those ignoring curfew, law enforcement had overwhelming numbers along with several thousand Guard members. They used drones,CCTV and traffic cameras to split up the mobs, surrounded them and then mass arrests. Gas and rubber bullets sent the rest fleeing back to the suburbs. Anyone out after curfew was considered part of the problem.
Now that things are relatively peaceful, most residents now welcome the Guard despite the heavy hand they first used.
