@mekkaokereke in other words the police allow the protesters to make a noise to March and do all the things that are normal in a peaceful protest but make it clear that looting and damage isn't going to be tolerated. If they do have to arrest somone it needs to be targeted directly and in clear response to somone going beyond what is acceptable. You were told this was unacceptable. You did it anyway hence arrest.... Importantly this MUST NOT change the attitude towards anyone else
