The protrayal of police as the enemy during the horrible riots, is the worst tangled use of the media. For those who put themselves in harm's way during the violance of those in the streets, need to fully understand that putting yourself in upevil can get you hurt. Protests are without violence....once the protests turn to violance from perpetrators, police have the right and direction to defend themselves and their city. After all, defence of community, is their job. If you do not want to get hurt, do not put yourself in the middle of a riot.
