These acts are occurring before the protesting rioters even know the facts. All major cities should have their local TV stations announce that protesting rioters will be shot. Peaceful protests are one thing but throwing bricks at policemen destroying property or shooting at them is NOT ACCEPTABLE. If the rioting protesters knew ahead of time that they would be shot if they did so, are they really stupid enough to riot anyway. LAW & ORDER MUST BE MAINTAINED AT ALL COSTS.

I hope you're just joking Lon. I agree that protests should be peaceful and the violators should be dealt with and arrested when needed. If a civilian is actually shooting at a cop, then I say fine, use lethal force for protection. For throwing bricks or property damage, shooting them is not and never should be the American way to maintain law and order.
 
No I am not kidding. Look what's happened in Milwaukee. They have alerted the National Guard. Some of the protesters had weapons and fired at police. Cops hi int the head with bricks. Absolutely no respect for law and order. OK, call me a facist/bigot/racist but I just betcha that many if not all of the rioters have police records. I guess we need more ping pong tables, basket ball courts and jobs paying $20 per hour. PLEASE TELL ME YOUR SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM OF VIOLENT PROTESTS AND RIOTING---& NOT SOMETHING THAT IS GOING TO TAKE YEARS AND YEARS TO SOLVE, BECAUSE THE PROBLEM IS NOW.
 
BLACK police officer shoots a BLACK armed man who is pointing a handgun at him. BLACK people riot burning 7 police cruisers after filling them with bullet holes, loot and burn 4 businesses, 48 shots fired at the police.... And just how do we get some semblance of sanity back into the culture of the U.S.?? Now, we taxpayers will pay the City of Milwaukee millions of dollars to rebuild the area these criminals looted and burned. They ARE criminals!!!

I do not agree with opening fire and killing them. What I would agree with would be fire hoses, tear gas, and non-lethal rubber bullets. If some were injured... they brought it on themselves. If the protest remains civil... let them march. When it turns to looting and burning... show there are consequences for criminal behavior.
 
Yo son, just lower the gas there a few notches, and I will say nothing suggesting spell check in any way. Really...hands up don't shoot. I remember a rather off-handed comment heard in small town PA one day. It was uglier still that the fellows having the conversation worked for the local prison. It was suggested they close off Philly and burn it to the ground. That would solve the immediate prison overcrowding. We've already become a society of shoot first and ask questions later. Suggesting more violence to fight violence...complete anarchy isn't the answer.

Funny but it seems like every time a person of color gets shot (looks justified in this case) it automatically gives a hall pass to others of color to riot, burn and loot.

Dead guy = a free pass and justification to toast vehicles & businesses and get a free big screen tv.

If you google "water canon" you will see some interesting vehicles that are used in other countries. They are trucks with armored cabs to protect the operators and the back is a water tank. The water canon is mounted on the cab roof. It is simple in operation, the water is sufficient to knock the rioter on his arse without killing him.

The Israelis carried it one step further by putting "skunk juice " in the water so that the troublemaker will have something to remember.

There is no valid reason to not use them here.

Policies like that triggered a revolution once already. Pretty harsh and the tools of an opressive regime. I don't think that that's what's needed.

Lethal force should never be the first resort of the police, or anyone else.

While Lon's thought does, at first glance, seem extreme, think of the alternative view as expressed above.

No one is suggesting "as a first resort" but rather "in response". Peaceful demonstrations are fine. For those who want to take the discussion to the USSR or China, the subject is not response to peaceful demonstrations - it is response to violence directed against the police and those who the police are supposed to be protecting.
