Exactly, if you notice they lacked the proper riot gear as well, short batons, no shields, few face masks, and yes a total lack of understanding of LE crowd control procedures. The crowd was large from what I saw, but not so large as to be uncontrollable with proper procedures and the correct gear. We also don't know what their orders were. Having worked for a completely broken Department they could have been told not to engage unless.... Even so they were ill equipped/trained for the task at hand. Just as many of our small departments are, I can only hope that was a wakeup call to that organization.
