And then physical force. Anyone rioting and destroying property has given up all civil rights and deserves whatever happens to them, be it a clubbing, tear gas, or rubber bullets. If they are physically and possibly permanently injured, then that is on themselves since they were putting their neighbors' and neighbor's property in danger. If we don't stop these riots at the start, then they grow and get out of control. I have no sympathy at all for those that resort to physical violence when they are angry. They were criminally wrong and the mayor contributed to their actions and was also criminally wrong.
