These shots were taken before things got out of hand. There were a few rowdy kids, but mostly it was very peaceful. Some of the cops with the black helmets seemed pretty wired, so it wasn't hard to imagine things could get out of hand in a hurry. The media seems to have bought the official BS about the dangerous violent radicals ready to riot, so the cops probably figure they can bust a few heads without getting into any trouble.
