The quickest way to change public opinion and cause the American public to back the protestors, not to mention giving law enforcement a black eye, is continued over-reaction and use of heavy handed techniques by authorities. The media was our biggest ally during the Civil Rights Movement because it showed folks everywhere that many southern cops were nothing more than thugs, today...there is 1000% more coverage, yet authorities are making the same mistakes. Power doesn't always equate to intellect.
