It is against the law to point a weapon at someone except in the case of an imminent threat. Cops are not exempt. Protestors with their hands in the air do not qualify as such a threat. No wonder these fascists wear face masks.

I’ve seen enough, especially the attacks on the press. Nixon needs to sent in state police and national guard, push the local yokels out of town entirely and restore some semblance of the rule of law. If he won’t do that, President Obama needs to take the next step: Federal marshals and federal troops.
