Just freakin’ shoot some of these thugs, already.
Seriously. All the restraint does is tell them “we want MORE!”
Just offer them $100 cash if they go home.
It is a dangerous situation when Cops & soldiers HESITATE to shoot if threatened. The rioters are hell-bent on mayhem. Those that loot and destroy property need to be eliminated, on the spot just as was done in the Detroit, 1967 riots. Once the rioters see their buddies on the ground, not moving, they'll head home.
