Police find themselves on the front line and become the face of oppressive behavior but they are under orders from mayors and other high ranking officials. I was discharged from the Army in 1971...40 years ago. Yet the training I received as an MP appears vastly superior to that afforded to police today with regards to crowd control and dealing peacefully with protests. One has to wonder why???
