I'm with giga06 on most recent comment. One of the "jobs" of the police, I believe, is to maintain order. They are not protecting individual citizens in this case, but acting as a buffer between the groups, with the intention of making sure the heated emotions don't spill over into mob violence, as would be too easy.

I'm not going to touch the rest of this discussion, but will simply point out that I was stationed at zip code 66620 (the former Forbes AFB, just south of Topeka) in the late sixties. The vast majority of the people who live there are fine upstanding people that you would be proud to call friends.
