If procedure had been followed when someone takes a cops gun the other cops shoot them. That is exactly what officers are trained and taught to do.
They are damn lucky they did not get shot.

You wouldn’t believe how many nutty leftists there are here. Our congresswoman is one of them. Maybe it’s because the state is too close to MN. Squidginess is rampant here. I’ve seen several Black Lives Matter signs in suburban yards.

The police “encouraged” the offenders to come along quietly? This is insane. It’s impossible to be a cop today. If the cops had done what they should have done, they would be accused of police brutality. The commies at the Des Moines Register would lead the charge.

Authorities released information regarding a conflict between officials and Black Lives Matter protesters Wednesday afternoon. . .Police said that a protester assaulted a police officer by jumping on the officers back, placed him in a chokehold and wrestling him to the ground. The authorities said the officers was "disarmed of his duty handgun," but was able to get it back. Police chose to make arrests in the worst way possible, Drake law professor Sally Frank said. It appears they have some evidence against some people about the police car at the Hy-Vee parking lot, and rather than trying to talk with people otherwise they grabbed them in the middle of a protest. That gets people heated. When detectives tried to take prisoners out of the statehouse, the crowd followed them outside and, at the one point, swarmed them and attacked the officers, Des Moines police Sgt. Paul Parizek said. Its probably one of the most violent attacks Ive seen on police in a long time. They were tackled to the ground. They were ripped off people they were trying to arrest. :
Des Moines police say protesters assaulted officers, one disarmed an officer

That was a disturbing video. The police were swarmed by the rioters. Every one of the rioters deserves to be arrested.

'Violence was from police only': Allegations of kettling, a controversial police tactic, emerge after Monday protests in Des Moines"There was no violence from the protesters. The violence was from police only," said Sally Frank of the National Lawyers Guild, a human rights defense group. "Certainly, the first or second dispersal warning was muffled, but everyone got out of the street. By the time the dispersal order was audible, everyone was on the sidewalk, but police moved in.
"Some people were dispersing and were chased, and other people weren't given the opportunity and were grabbed within seconds."
A professor of law at Drake University, Frank said a legal observer with the guild was among those arrested. Legal observers are not affiliated with protest groups and are there to see whether people's First Amendment rights are being violated.

“”We are in communication with eyewitnesses to the police actions last night,” ACLU of Iowa Legal Director Rita Bettis Austen said in a statement. “There are credible accounts of police action in violation of the constitutional guarantee of free speech, including ‘kettling’ and the use of excessive force on nonviolent protesters including a child, media and a legal observer.””
