Police are always going to side with police. That's why all these investigations don't mean crap to me what they decide.

Do you know of a guide which explains proceedures for handling unruly people in non-violent ways that might be raised as a reference in these kinds of discussions. Police who defend actions like this seem to be under the impression that violence is the only way that they can handle problems, and the Amnesty document references the idea of non-violent responses but doesn't provide details on how to do it from a professional perspective.
