The problem is not the police or the army, but the ones giving the orders and permission for them to act the way they do. The police are only to be blamed if their actions contradict orders given by the people. This may have happened here, in which case it is a job for the judicial system to rectify it. It is called checks and balances........and goes back all the way to the French revolution......the cradle of modern democracy. add your comments
