Real sad Capt Dwayne Conyers It looks like the one cop was going help hi but the supervisor pushed him away. It also looks like a heavy piece of artillery the soldier was carrying. Some sort of tear gas launcher?

people don't carry artillery pieces like m198 howitzers or 777 howitzers, those things are larger than vehicles, I assume you mean a grenade launcher?

It is possible to bleed from he ear from a gravity fall, but would you rather the rioter take a shotgun blast to the chest?

MAJ Ken Landgren - I believe deadly force is legal for self defense in all Rules of Engagement.. I know here in Ohio deadly force is legal for any attacking threat on part of self others or on property or vehicle.

2901.09 No duty to retreat in residence or vehicle..
(A) As used in this section, "residence" and "vehicle" have the same meanings as in section 2901.05 of the Revised Code.

(B) For purposes of any section of the Revised Code that sets forth a criminal offense, a person who lawfully is in that person's residence has no duty to retreat before using force in self-defense, defense of another, or defense of that person's residence, and a person who lawfully is an occupant of that person's vehicle or who lawfully is an occupant in a vehicle owned by an immediate family member of the person has no duty to retreat before using force in self-defense or defense of another.

2917.05 Use of force to suppress riot or in protecting persons or property during riot..
A law enforcement officer or fireman, engaged in suppressing riot or in protecting persons or property during riot:

(A) Is justified in using force, other than deadly force, when and to the extent he has probable cause to believe such force is necessary to disperse or apprehend rioters;

(B) Is justified in using force, including deadly force, when and to the extent he has probable cause to believe such force is necessary to disperse or apprehend rioters whose conduct is creating a substantial risk of serious physical harm to persons.

MAJ Ken Landgren - so as you can see it is legal in my state to use deadly force on rioters if it is perceived they cause a substantial risk to the public.
