the police are already doing a fine job of antagonizing the protestors for no reason other than being a threat to their power. they are already fighting against the very people they're supposed to protect, and to have the military step in to do the same will quite frankly only outrage even more people. you CANNOT send the military on the protestors; that would be like declaring war on your own citizens, which is reprehensible as it is, but in a nation that claims to be the "land of the free," it only adds insult to injury.
