And the law that authorizes harming them as opposed to arresting them?

There was a firearm in the car, in which there were the dead man and another person, the driver. That’s all we know for certain as yet.

No Cap I wouldn’t offer them a cup of coffee, in fact.

I could shoot someone threatening me with harm or I could wait for the po po to demonstrate their legendary courage and arrest the rioter. However, you know when you need the po po in a second, they are minutes away, and at any rate, they are more interested in making a report than in tackling a rioter, so don’t expect them until the event is overwith.

This is interesting....

Mark Duggan was carrying converted blank-firing handgun when he was shot dead by a single police bullet Probe into 29-year-old's death could take six months

Yeah. True. the rioters are criminals. But where is the law that says you can harm them? You can arrest them adn take them to trial.

If you allow the government to put down a riot by harming rioters, no one’s rights are safe including yours.

So, in your scenario, riots cannot be put down by any means that have teeth.

So the riots, in short, cannot be put down.

Which means total anarchy: Murder, robbery, rape, arson, looting.

And you are okay with all that.
