Oh come on....I'm outnumbered everytime I go to the track, lots of strangers rooting for other horses but I still root for mine without going for my pepper spray (lol). If the crowd was openly hostile you'd perhaps have a point but even then...been there done that without resorting to abuse. You are trained to ignore verbal abuse in those situations, remain calm and display authority without forcing the crowd's hand. If this was an angry, violent crowd, those officers would have been assaulted for what they did!
