| Message | May I ask why? If a demonstration starts turning into a riot should it be allowed turn into a riot, or should it be ended before it developes to that level? |

| Message | -Two words: "believe" "potential" Exactly, and if the police dont "believe" that there is "potential" for trouble then it will carry on. I'd rather be safe then sorry. If someone slipped in with a bomb and the police got information, then why should they be powerless to stop it |

| Message | They could say "Someone has a bomb, everyone who doesn't want to die in a fiery explosion may want to leave." And attempt to apprehend the person with the bomb |

| Message | -They could say "Someone has a bomb, everyone who doesn't want to die in a fiery explosion may want to leave." And attempt to apprehend the person with the bomb- If you announced to the crowd that someone had a bomb, will they all leave peacefully? Of course not. It'd be chaos. |
